Question
Chapter 2, Problem 48A
To determine
The way, one can find a time interval using a clock.
Expert Solution & Answer
Explanation of Solution
Introduction:
The difference in the occurrence of two events in known as time interval. It can be measured using a clock.
In order to find time interval, one must note the time when it begins and when it ends. The result of subtraction of the initial time from the final time provides the time interval.
