Just press A when your face is touching the sundial
The answer depends on what is wrog with the sundial.
You can't use a sundial in the night when its dark but you can tell the time using a sundial in daytime
You can use a sundial, which is a device that uses the position of the sun's shadow to tell time. By placing a stick or pointer on the sundial, the shadow it casts can indicate the time based on markings on the sundial's face.
It doesn't. The gnomon is supposed to match the latitude of the location where the sundial is placed. If the latitude is 30 degrees and the gnomon is 45 the entire sundial will have to be tilted to keep correct time. Another way to describe this is to say that the gnomon should be parallel to the Earth's axis.
A sundial is a way to tell time without a clock. It uses the sun and positions of shadows to tell the time. These are fairly accurate.
A sundial.
If correctly aligned it'll tell the time by casting a shadow from the sun over a marked face.
a sundial is very simple to use mailny because it uses the suns rays however if it is night time the use of a sundial is no longer possible on the sundial it will have numbers on it and when the sun shines on it it will cast a particular shadow that shadow should line up with a number and then it will tell you the approximate time
east
I have a sundial in the garden.The sundial were the earliest form of clocks.
The sun appears to rise in the East, move across the sky during the day and set in the West. A sundial has a pointy part which is called a gnomon. In the morning the shadow of its tip is in the West. During the day this shadow moves across the face of the sundial, and end up in the East. The gnomon is angled to take account of the latitude of the location and the sundial is graduated with marks which indicate the hours at which the shadow will fall at a particular place on the sundial.
