Its one o'clock baby!

2006-06-17 22:05:20 · answer #1 · answered by Gabz 2 · 0 0

This is a really vague question. Perhaps you mean the thirteenth time that the clock strikes each day. It strikes once at 1:00 am, twice at 2:00 am, three times at 3:00 am, four times at 4:00 am (a total of 10 times now), and five times at 5:00 am. So the thirteenth time the clock strikes would be while it is indicating that it is 5:00 am. But this assumes that there are no chimes for the quarter and half hours. I'll say 5:00 am is the thirteenth strike of the clock each day.

But if you are going to count the twelve strikes at midnight (which begins the day), then it would be 1:00 am.

The clock on the church tower in Worsley, Greater Manchester strikes 13 times at 1 pm. The workers at the foundary that used to be in the village took to habitually turning up late back at work after lunch, saying they often did not hear the single bell strike at 1 pm. So the Duke of Bridgewater arranged for the clock to stike 13 times instead.

In general, bells sound to a 12 hour clock and do not ever strike 13 times.

Let n be the number of times the clock strike for an hour. If N is the total number of strikes, the time elapsed is( N -1)/n hour.

Let the first strike be at time t. The time after N strikes is t + ( N -1)/n hour.Since you have only the number 13 the time is t + 12/n hour.

24 hour periods are mainly military time.

02=2
03=3
04=4
05=5
06=6
07=7
08=8
09=9
10=10
11=11
12=12 P.M
13= 1
14=2
15=3
16=4
17=5
18=6
19=7
20=8

If the clock is the single on the united kingdom homes of Parliament, then the chimes are broadcast on the radio. The time between each and each strike is 5 seconds. the speed of sound in air at Thames element is 1216 kilometres in accordance to hour, or 0.337778 kilometres in accordance to second; or a million.688889 kilometres in 5 seconds. So if at 12 midday or useless night , you're a million.688889 kilometres (in simple terms over a mile in Roman units) faraway from the houses of Parliament, with a radio on BBC 4, you'll listen the first chime on the radio, 5 secs later you'll listen the second one chime on the radio at the same time because the first chime by the air. 5 seconds when you listen the twelfth chime on the radio, you'll listen the twelfth chime by the air, so it is going to sound as even if you've heard 13 chimes.

12.30 a.m.

At Midnight 12 o'clock, the clock strike 12
At 12.30 a.m, it strikes one.
So, when the clock strikes for the 13th time, it is 12.30 a.m.

Right?
