Want this question answered?
So that the way people could tell time could be established by the way the sun was located, by east to west.
planets have revoloution times because back before clocks, they used the sun and some odd looking statues placed correctly to tell the times, so therefore by giving a planet a revolution time they could tell what time of day or year it was by looking at the position of the sun.
Beacause people thought that the Earth was the middle of the universe, not the sun.
It was determined by observation of the sun. When the sun reached it highest declination of the day with respect to wherever you were, that was noon where you were. So if an area had 100 cities, it had 100 "time zones".
This could easily be possible but as the sun is continually expanding i imagine that in a matter of time t would be sucked in and burned inside the sun
Yes. By looking at the sun, they could tell. Some of the Master's gardens for decor could had have a sundial for time.
They couldn't tell the time from sundials because there was no sun.
So that the way people could tell time could be established by the way the sun was located, by east to west.
they use to tell time by looking at the sun. weather the sun was at the west or east or north or south, know they tell time by looking at the clock.
if you know that where sun rises that is east and the position of east you can easily tell the time by seeing the sun
You can use a sun dial.
They knew what time it was because they could tell the time by looking at the sun. Whatever angle the sun was at, told them the time. So, they just looked at the sun for the time when clocks were first invented. Or they just used a sundial.
by the sun
You can tell the time by looking at the sun's position. A great time teller is the sunflower wich turns after the sun on how he moves .
hours!
You build a clock although this does not show the most accurate it shows you (if you where mining) What the time will be outside. Or you could just look at the sun and estimate what the time is.
To tell time with the Sun.
