Which consequence results when medieval water clock design neglects algebraic modeling of fluid dissipation?

💡 Explanation

Inaccurate time measurement occurs because the `nonlinear draining rate` isn't accounted for via algebraic equations; the water level decreases rapidly at first, but then slows, therefore the markings become uneven rather than proportionally representing time.
