- Observations Using the Gnomon.
- The objectives are to study the use of the gnomon to determine the length of the year, the latitude, the obliquity of the ecliptic, and the declination of the sun. ...
- The gnomon was one of the first astronomical instruments. ...
- A gnomon consisting of a stake, preferably metal, that is several feet in length. ... In a school, a flagpole is a convenient, yet not always accurate, gnomon. ...
- A meter stick or measuring tape to measure the height of the gnomon and the length of its shadow .
- Do this by measuring from the north base of a perfectly vertical gnomon to the edge of its shadow. ...
- The sun's altitude can be measured by stretching a string from the top of the gnomon to the chalk dot and measuring the angle that it creates. This angle can also be computed with greater precision with trigonometry by using the tangent function with the gnomon as the opposite side and the shadow as the adjacent side. ...
- Through observation, the position of the shadows can be found for the different hours throughout the year, noted in a notebook or chart, and eventually marked on the horizontal surface surrounding the gnomon. ...

- Equatorial Sundial Gnomon Length Calculator.
- An equatorial sundial consists of a dial plate, and a gnomon (or style) that is perpendicular to the dial plate. ... The gnomon is a pole (or rod) that passes through the center of the dial plate, extending above the upper face of the dial plate, and extending below the lower dial face. ...
- Use the following rule-of-thumb to determine the length of the upper segment of the gnomon: "If the shadow of the gnomon is to reach the circle of hour numbers at the times of the solstices, the gnomon must be about half as long as the radius of that circle. ...
- Input the radius of the dial plate (one-half the diameter) and your latitude to calculate the length of the lower segment of the gnomon required to properly orient your equatorial sundial. ...
- The gnomon should extend units from the center of the lower dial face to a horizontal surface. ...
- For 0° latitude (the Equator), the gnomon lower segment is theoretically infinite in length.
