  5. Jet lag - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jet_lag

    Jet lag is a chronobiological problem, [11] similar to issues often induced by shift work and circadian rhythm sleep disorders. When travelling across a number of time zones, a person's body clock (circadian rhythm) will be out of synchronisation with the destination time, as it experiences daylight and darkness contrary to the rhythms to which ...

  9. Escapement - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Escapement

    In spring-driven clocks and watches, it required a fusee to even out the force of the mainspring. It was used in the first pendulum clocks for about 50 years after the pendulum clock was invented in 1656. In a pendulum clock, the crown wheel and staff were oriented horizontally, and the pendulum was hung from the staff.
