About the Second

History & Origin

Historically defined as 1/86,400 of a mean solar day. In 1967, it was redefined atomically as the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation corresponding to the transition between two hyperfine levels of cesium-133.

Primary Uses

Precision scientific timers, clock ticking, system latency, physics experiments, and calculating speeds.

Country & Regional Usage

Used globally in all countries and scientific fields.

Why convert from Hour to Second?
