The GPS clock is three minutes slow because there isn't as much gravity around the satellite as there is on the surface, which makes time go by more quickly.
A night on Neptune lasts about 16 hours and 6.7 minutes. This is due to the slow rotation of the planet on its axis, which results in longer day and night cycles compared to Earth.
The SkyScan Atomic Clock model 86715 receives radio signals from atomic clocks to stay accurate. It automatically adjusts for Daylight Saving Time and has a large display for easy reading. It also features an alarm with snooze function.
Evaporation is very slow at converting liquid to gas compared to boiling.
If you put a magnet next to a clock, it can interfere with the clock's magnetic components and disrupt its timekeeping mechanism. This can cause the clock to either slow down or speed up, depending on the specific design and sensitivity of the clock. It is generally recommended to keep magnets away from clocks to maintain their accuracy.
If you and I stand at Cape Canaveral and set our clocks to coincide, and then you pick up your clock, climb into your dazzling multicolored starship and take off, leaving the launch-pad at close to the speed of light, -- and then I keep watching your clock through my telescope, and you keep watching my clock through your telescope, -- I'll see that compared to my clock, yours is running slow. -- You'll see that compared to your clock, mine is running slow. We'll both be right. I know. It's impossible. It can't be. But it is. It's been demonstrated and measured thousands of times over the last 70 years, in laboratories all over the world.
The correct time is 3:35pm when the clock reads 3pm. At 3pm correct time, the clock will have been running slow for 3 hours and be 30 minutes behind, reading 2:30. It will lose an additional 5 minutes to travel the 1/2 hr more, so it would be behind a total of 35 minutes.
730 minutes slow (12.167 hours slow, so basically half a day slow) In other words it would be correct if it didn't say PM or AM.
730 minutes slow
The clocks would read 16 minutes earlier than the actual factual time. Sadly, you haven't told us what time it really is. Incidentally, a clock can be 16 minutes 'behind', but it can't be 16 minutes 'slow'. If a clock is 'slow', then the amount of time it loses depends on how long it's been running since it was set, and would be expressed in units of "minutes per hour", or some other such dimensionless ratio.
No. It will run 2.45 times as SLOW.
Depends on type. An electrical clock won't care either way. But a plumb-powered clock will be slow.
Bad clock motor, replace!!!
The narrator plans to observe the clock to see if it consistently runs slow or fast compared to another reliable source of time, such as a phone or computer. By monitoring the clock over a period of time, the narrator can determine if there is a pattern to the discrepancy and identify possible causes.
Yes, a clock that loses 1 second every hour is more accurate because it consistently maintains the correct time; it would only be off by 24 seconds after a full day. The clock that is consistently 3 seconds slow would accumulate a larger error over time.

20 hours because the fast clock technically gains 3 minutes every hour. An hour has 60 minutes, so if you divide that by 3 you get 20.
the song slow ride is 3:58 minutes
