What is the efficiency of time realisation in cesium atomic clocks ?

Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine the efficiency of time realization in cesium atomic clocks, we can follow these steps: ### Step 1: Understand the Uncertainty of Time Realization The uncertainty of time realization in cesium atomic clocks is given as ±10^-13 seconds. This means that the clock can be off by this amount in its timekeeping. ### Step 2: Calculate the Maximum Gain or Loss in a Year To find out how much the clock can gain or lose in a year, we need to convert the uncertainty into a yearly context. ...
