Unit Definitions
Shake (shake)
A shake is a unit of time equal to 10 nanoseconds. It's used in nuclear physics to measure very short time intervals.
1 shake = 10 nanoseconds = 0.00000001 second
Second (s)
A second is the base unit of time in the International System of Units. One second equals 1/60 of a minute or 1/3,600 of an hour.
1 second = 1/60 minute = 1/3,600 hour = 1/86,400 day
Common Use Cases
- Nuclear physics problems.
- Converting to everyday seconds.
- Unit table verification.
- STEM education.
Understanding the Conversion
1 shake = 10⁻⁸ seconds (10 ns). Divide shake by 10⁸.
Examples: 10⁸ shake = 1 s · 3×10⁸ shake = 3 s.
