    Ten seconds (one sixth of a minute) minute: 60 s: hectosecond: 100 s: milliday: 1/1000 d: Also marketed as a ".beat" by the Swatch corporation. moment: 1/40 solar hour (90 s on average) Medieval unit of time used by astronomers to compute astronomical movements, length varies with the season. [4] Also colloquially refers to a brief period of ...

  3. Longitude by chronometer - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Longitude_by_chronometer

    Consequently, noon at the Prime Meridian is rarely if ever exactly at 12:00 UTC, but rather it occurs some minutes and seconds before or after that time each day. This slight daily variation has been calculated and is listed for each day of the year in the Nautical almanac [4] under the title of Equation of time. This variation must be added to ...

  4. Minute - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Minute

    Minute is a unit of time defined as equal to 60 seconds. [1] One hour contains 60 minutes. [2] Although not a unit in the International System of Units (SI), the minute is accepted for use in the SI. [1] The SI symbol for minutes is min (without a dot). The prime symbol ′ is also sometimes used informally to denote minutes. [3]

  5. Equation of time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Equation_of_time

    From 1767 to 1833, the British Nautical Almanac and Astronomical Ephemeris tabulated the equation of time in the sense 'add or subtract (as directed) the number of minutes and seconds stated to or from the apparent time to obtain the mean time'. Times in the Almanac were in apparent solar time, because time aboard ship was most often determined ...

  6. Sidereal time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sidereal_time

    More exactly, sidereal time is the angle, measured along the celestial equator, from the observer's meridian to the great circle that passes through the March equinox (the northern hemisphere's vernal equinox) and both celestial poles, and is usually expressed in hours, minutes, and seconds. (In the context of sidereal time, "March equinox" or ...

  7. Orders of magnitude (time) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Orders_of_magnitude_(time)

    Clock time and calendar time have duodecimal or sexagesimal orders of magnitude rather than decimal, e.g., a year is 12 months, and a minute is 60 seconds. The smallest meaningful increment of time is the Planck time ―the time light takes to traverse the Planck distance , many decimal orders of magnitude smaller than a second.

  8. Second - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Second

    The time kept by a sundial varies by time of year, meaning that seconds, minutes and every other division of time is a different duration at different times of the year. The time of day measured with mean time versus apparent time may differ by as much as 15 minutes, but a single day differs from the next by only a small amount; 15 minutes is a ...

  9. Time - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Time

    A minute (min) is 60 seconds in length (or, rarely, 59 or 61 seconds when leap seconds are employed), and an hour is 60 minutes or 3600 seconds in length. A day is usually 24 hours or 86,400 seconds in length; however, the duration of a calendar day can vary due to Daylight saving time and Leap seconds.
