Clock
A clock is a device that measures and displays the passage of time. It typically uses a consistent timekeeping mechanism, such as a swinging pendulum or vibrating quartz crystal, to generate regular signals. These signals drive the movement of the clock's hands on a dial or digital display, allowing us to read the current time accurately. Clocks are essential for coordinating activities, scheduling events, and maintaining a shared understanding of time in daily life and various industries.
