Is a nanosecond one millionth of a second?
No, it is one billionth of a second.
Is a microsecond or a centisecond bigger?
1 Microsecond = One millionth (10-6) of a second.1 centisecond = one hundredth of a second.A CENTIDECOND IS BIGGER .009 OF A SECOND
Can sound travel faster in air?
sound travels so fast because it feels like it
What distance does light travel in vaccume when sound travels 1100 feet in air?
That's aproximately the distance sound travels in one second, in air. Since light travels at a speed of 300,000 kilometers per second, the answer is, approximately 300,000 kilometers.
How many nanometers equal one-millionth of a meter?
One millionth of a meter is equal to 1000 nanometers.
Is a nanosecond one millionth of a second?
No, it is one billionth of a second.
What is a millionth of a millionth of a millionth of a millionth of a second notated in numbers?
A millionth is 10-6 or 0.000001; so 4 millionths multiplied together is 10-24 seconds or 0.000000000000000000000001 seconds. (10-6)4 = 10-24 second = 0.000000000000000000000001 second (The 4 millionths are not "multiplied together". One millionth is raised to the fourth power.)
How long is a femtosecond?
A femtosecond is one billionth of one millionth of a second.
What is a million millionth of a second called?
A second! 1 = Ten tenths = Hundred hundredths = Thousand thousandths etc. A millionth of a millionth of a second, or 1/(1million x 1 million) seconds, is called a picosecond. 1/(1 million) seconds, or one millionth of a second, is called a microsecond. 1/(1000 x 1million) seconds, or one thousandth of a microsecond, is called a nanosecond.
What are hundreds of a second?
1 centisecond (one-hundredth of a second)and for your delectation:-deci - one tenth 1/10centi - one hundredth 1/100milli - one thousandth 1/1,000micro - one millionth 1/1,000,000nano - one thousand millionth 1/1,000,000,000Pico - one million, millionth 1/1,000,000,000,000
What is a Millionth of a Second?
A millionth of a second is one microsecond. It is the length of time a beam of light, traveling about 3 x 108 meters per second, will take to go about 300 meters.
How many miles does light travel in 1 microsecond in a vacuum the speed of light in a vacuum is 186000 miles per second?
Since a microsecond is a millionth of a second, just divide the distance light travels in one second, by a million.
What fractional part of a second is a microsecond?
one millionth , or 10^-6
What is less than milliseconds?
it is Millisecond(One thousandth of a second) Microsecond(One millionth of a second) Nanosecond(One billionth of a second) Picosecond(One trillionth of a second)
What is one billionth of one millionth of one second in power of 10?
One billionth of one millionth in the US is 1 x 10-15. In the UK it is 1 x 10-18.
How long is microsecond?
A microsecond is equal to 1 or one millionth of a second. _________ 1,000,000
What is one millionth of a second called?
One millionth of a second is called a microsecond (as can be found at College and Graduate School of Arts and Sciences, Boston University http://www.cs.bu.edu/faculty/snyder/cs210/Units.htm). There is some conjecture that the correct answer to this question could also be a billisecond (in that in Imperial Measure milli means one thousandth and billi means one millionth).
