Benjamin Banneker built his clock primarily from wood, utilizing local materials such as a wooden case and gears crafted from various types of wood. He also used metal components for the clock's mechanisms, including a brass pendulum and weights. Banneker's innovative design and craftsmanship allowed him to create a fully functional wooden clock, showcasing his skills as a self-taught inventor and mathematician.
by making the wooden clock ,and it was the first wooden clock in united states.
Benjamin Banneker affected AMERICA(you spelled it wrong) by making our ( America's) first clock. We use the clock daily and if it wasn't for him, we wouldn't know what time it is!
Benjamin Banneker utilized a variety of tools in his work as a mathematician, astronomer, and surveyor. He famously used a wooden clock he designed and built to demonstrate his understanding of mechanics and timekeeping. Additionally, he employed mathematical instruments such as a quadrant and an astrolabe for astronomical observations and surveying land. His analytical skills combined with these tools allowed him to make significant contributions to science and engineering.
Oh, dude, Benjamin Banneker was like a total brainiac. He was super smart, like a genius or something. Plus, he was hardworking, determined, and had a knack for math and science. So yeah, basically a real-life superhero without the cape.

Benjamin Banneker had no contributions to math
Because he needed to know when to come in and do household chores because he was to poor to have a maid and was not married.

ok
what color i got on
He made 5 inventions.
he made America's first functional clock out of wood. Also he made an almanac with the weather, proverbs and legends. He made dams in ditches to help water his family's crops

At the age of 21, Banneker's life was changed when he saw a neighbor's pocket watch. (Some say the watch belonged to Josef Levi, a traveling salesman.) He borrowed the watch, took it apart to draw all its pieces, then reassembled it and returned it running to its owner. Banneker then carved large-scale wooden replicas of each piece, calculating the gear assemblies himself, and used the parts to make a striking clock, the first wooden clock in the United States. The clock continued to work, striking each hour, for more than 40 years.
