Clock \Clock\ (kl[o^]k), n. [AS. clucge bell; akin to D. klok
clock, bell, G. glocke, Dan. klokke, Sw. klocka, Icel. klukka
bell, LL. clocca, cloca (whence F. cloche); al perh. of
Celtic origin; cf. Ir. & Gael. clog bell, clock, W. cloch
bell. Cf. {Cloak}.]
1. A machine for measuring time, indicating the hour and
other divisions; in ordinary mechanical clocks for
domestic or office use the time is indicated on a
typically circular face or dial plate containing two
hands, pointing to numbers engraved on the periphery of
the face, thus showing the hours and minutes. The works of
a mechanical clock are moved by a weight or a spring, and
it is often so constructed as to tell the hour by the
stroke of a hammer on a bell. In electrical or electronic
clocks, the time may be indicated, as on a mechanical
clock, by hands, but may also be indicated by direct
digital readout, with the hours and minutes in normal
Arabic numerals. The readout using hands is often called
analog to distinguish it from the digital readout. Some
clocks also indicate the seconds. Clocks are not adapted,
like the watch, to be carried on the person. Specialized
clocks, such as {atomic clocks}, may be constructed on
different principles, and may have a very high precision
for use in scientific observations.
[1913 Webster PJC]

3. The striking of a clock. [Obs.] --Dryden.

stocking. --Swift.
[1913 Webster]

Note: The phrases what o'clock? it is nine o'clock, etc., are

clock, etc.
[1913 Webster]

{Astronomical clock}.
(a) A clock of superior construction, with a compensating

for use in astronomical observatories; -- called a
regulator when used by watchmakers as a standard for
regulating timepieces.
(b) A clock with mechanism for indicating certain
astronomical phenomena, as the phases of the moon,
position of the sun in the ecliptic, equation of time,
etc.

{Electric clock}.
(a) A clock moved or regulated by electricity or
electro-magnetism.
(b) A clock connected with an electro-magnetic recording
apparatus.

{Ship's clock} (Naut.), a clock arranged to strike from one

regular sequence of electronic pulses used to synchronise
operations of the processor's components. The time between

is the {clock rate} (or frequency).

The execution times of instructions on a computer are usually
measured by a number of clock cycles rather than seconds.
{Clock rates} for various models of the computer may increase
as technology improves, and it is usually the relative times
one is interested in when discussing the {instruction set}.
