Time Measurement Tool
Surveys Time – In everyday life we use the clock as a measurement of time, by using the clock we can determine how much time has passed.
Time is a dimension where an event occurs that can be experienced from past to present. Time can also be interpreted as a measure of the duration of an event and the interval. In physics, time is one of the main quantities, and at every level the tree must have its own gauge.
It has been a long time since it became the main subject of good research in philosophical research, religion, as well as science. Time can also be interpreted as part of the basic structure of the universe, an event that happens in a consecutive way.
In general, time is a whole set of processes, situation, the incident, current or past conditions. If seen from this it can be interpreted that the time scale is the interval between two events or how long the event lasts.
In time scale measurement, many people use units like nano seconds, milliseconds, micro seconds to piko seconds. As the times evolve, at this time many have created a measuring device that serves to facilitate the work of humans.
On this occasion YukSinau.co.id will discuss about time measurement tools, understanding and types of measuring devices in full. Let's look at the explanation below.

Definition of Time Measurement Tools
"In general, time measuring devices are divided into two types, namely digital measuring instruments and manual measuring tools."”
Time measuring instrument is a tool or instrument used to calculate the amount of time. The amount of time is usually expressed in seconds or seconds. Examples of time measuring devices are, jam, stopwatch then calendar.
Types of Time Measuring Devices
There are several time measuring devices used from ancient times until now. Some of them are hours, stopwatch, calendar, and hourglass. The scale used to calculate time, among others, century, decade, black tiger, year, month, week, day, jam, minute, seconds, micro seconds, and nano seconds.
The following is an explanation of several types of time measuring devices. which is often used in everyday life.
Hourglass
The hourglass is one of the time measuring devices used in ancient times where when the unit of seconds or seconds has not been set as an international unit (AND). An hourglass has two tubes consisting of an upper tube and a lower cylinder. The top tube will be filled with sand until it's full and the bottom is empty.
Both tubes will be connected by a very small hole so that the sand can fall down or into the empty tube. If all the sand has moved to the bottom of the tube, it indicates that the time has passed in units of the hourglass. Usually hourglasses use hour units.
Watch
A watch or often called a watch is one type of clock. At this time many people use watches or watches so that they no longer have to bother looking for a clock when they are outside the home.
The watch itself has two types of manual watch and digital watch. The watch has the same accuracy as an ordinary clock, i.e. 0,5 second or 0,5 seconds.
Jam
Clock is a time gauge used in everyday life. Clock generally uses the smallest unit, which is seconds and the largest unit, which is clock. By using the hour scale used to zoom out 1 seconds then the clock has precision 0,5 second or 0,5 seconds.
With this unit, it can be easier for us to find out how much time has passed, for example calculate the time how long we walk from city a to city b .
The length of time in an hour is 1/24 (one twenty-four) day. 1 hours consist of 60 minutes and 3600 seconds. Manual type is available 3 timepiece, namely the smallest needle as a pointer to the school, then the needle is rather large as a minute pointer and the largest needle is a clock pointer.
Digital Timer
Digital timer is a time measurement tool that can help the testing process and serve as a supporting item on the performance of the test equipment that is based on the time required.
Digital timers are often used in the scope of the laboratory, testing tools and research room. With this tool, the work done in the laboratory can run easily, and will produce an accurate test of time.
Because this time measurement tool has a large influence on the process and performance of an activity or test. So in testing the people in the laboratory really appreciate the time, and they must know the time they need to meet the needs they use.
Stopwatch
Stopwatch is a time measurement tool in which there are seconds in components, minutes and hours. Stopwatch is often used in activities that require a count from 0 which aims to speed up and simplify data collection.
A stopwatch has a higher accuracy than a watch accuracy, namely accuracy 0,1 second. But along with the development of its time, the accuracy in the stopwatch also develops more thoroughly, which is to be a milisecond and even a micro second.
There are two types of stopwatches that are often used in daily life, namely digital stopwatch and analog stopwatch. The accuracy that a digital stopwatch can achieve 0,01 while the accuracy of the analog stopwatch is only 0,1.
The way to use a stopwatch is to start by pressing the button above and stop until the seconds will be displayed as the elapsed time.
To reset you, you can press the second button which is used to reset the stopwatch back to zero. And the second button also functions as a time recorder.
An example of using a stopwatch is when there is a race run to calculate the runner's speed.
calendar
A calendar or calendar system is used to measure long periods of time such as days, month or even year. The smallest occasional calendar is one day, then the accuracy is half a day.
In another sense the calendar is a system that is useful to give a name for a period of time, for example the names of the days. The names of the days are Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday, Friday, Saturday and Sunday. The names of these days are known as calendar dates.
The date can be determined based on the movements of objects in space such as the moon and the sun. Calendar can also refer to tools that illustrate the system, for example calendar.
There is 6 The calendar used in Indonesia is the Islamic calendar, hijri calendar, calendar of, Javanese calendar, Balinese saka calendar and sunda calendar.
That was some time measuring device used to measure time starting from seconds, minute, jam, until the year. Other nations also have their own gauges. Like an electric measuring instrument, length measuring instruments and other measuring devices.
That is all our explanation of "Electric Measuring Instrument."” I hope this material can be useful as physics learning material. To find out other physics material you can visit the article below.
