Stopwatch
A device that measures the time interval from start to stop. Useful for timing events in sports, cooking, and other tasks.
A stopwatch is a device used to start and stop timing intervals with precision. It begins timing when the start button is pressed and records elapsed time when stopped. Stopwatches are commonly used in sports events, scientific experiments, and culinary settings to measure durations accurately. Many models feature lap time recording, allowing multiple split times to be tracked separately. Both digital and analog versions exist, with digital stopwatches offering higher precision via LCD displays. Modern smartwatches and smartphones often include stopwatch functions, making this tool widely accessible for everyday timing needs.
