Some facts#

Time allows us to sort events according to their occurence.
Time is a scalar quantity, which means that it is enough to give one number (values).
The basic unit of time in the SI system is one second (1 s).
The definition of a second changes with the progress of physics. In 1967, at the XIII General Conference on Weights and Measures, the second was defined as "the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom at a temperature of 0 K".
In classical physics time is treated in a special way. It is assumed that time is an independent quantity, which exists independently in isolation from all other quantities.
In relativistic physics time is one of the coordinates treated analogously to the space x,y,z coordinates (in Cartesian system).

How to convert#

Enter the number to field "value" - enter the NUMBER only, no other words, symbols or unit names. You can use dot (.) or comma (,) to enter fractions.
Examples:
- 1000000
- 123,23
- 999.99999
Find and select your starting unit in field "unit". Some unit calculators have huge number of different units to select from - it's just how complicated our world is...
And... you got the result in the table below. You'll find several results for many different units - we show you all results we know at once. Just find the one you're looking for.
