How long is jiffy?
It is a short but unspecified period of time.
How long a period of time is a 'jiffy'?
It is a short but unspecified amount of time.
How long is a jiffy in the measurement of time?
A jiffy is the time it takes for light to travle 1centominer or about 33.3 pictoseconds in time.
What is the origin of the word jiffy?
"Jiffy" comes from the Latin origin "Jife" meaning an infinitely small period of time.
How long is a jiffy in seconds?
A "jiffy" is often used informally to mean a short period of time, but in scientific contexts, it can refer to specific durations. In physics, a jiffy is typically defined as the time it takes for light to travel one centimeter in a vacuum, which is approximately 33.3564 picoseconds (or 0.0000000000333564 seconds). In computing, a jiffy can also refer to about 1/100th of a second. The exact duration can vary depending on the context in which the term is used.
What is a jiffy of a fraction of a second?
There is no formal definition of a jiffy. In electronics, it can refer to the period of the alternating current cycle. In most countries, the AC supply is at 50 or 60 Hz so that a jiffy is 1/50 or 1/60 of a second.
How quick is a jiffy?
a jiffy is a 100th of a second. Correction: a jiffy is 16.7 milliseconds, approximately 1/60th of a second. In computers, a jiffy is 55 ms (1/18 sec). This is the length of a time sharing block of time on DOS and Windows computers.
How many seconds are in a jiffy?
A jiffy is a unit of time that is not precisely defined, but it is commonly used to mean a very short amount of time. In physics, a jiffy is often considered to be 1/100th of a second.
Is jiffy a number?
it is a real fraction of time
What is faster than a jiffy?
Jiffy is an indeterminate period of time originally thought to mean as quick as a flash of lightning. However many technologies have adopted it to express a quick time in their own area and attempted to standardize it:Gilbert Newton Lewis defined a Jiffy as the time it takes light to travel one centimetre, which is about 33.3564 picoseconds.In electronics, a Jiffy is defined as the time between alternating current power cycles, which is either 1/60 or 1/50 of a second.Edward R. Harrison defined a Jiffy as the time it takes for light to travel one fermi, which means that a Jiffy is equal to about 3 × 10−24 seconds. This measure is typically used in astrophysics and quantum physicsPhysics: The time it takes light to travel one centimetre (approximately 33.3564 picoseconds).Computing: Various definitions based on the timer system. It varies between 1/60 sec and 1 - 10 msAstrophysics and quantum physics: A complex definition. it may be set to the Planck interval, about 5.4 × 10−44 seconds, which is the time it takes light to move the smallest meaningful length, the Planck length.Thus the jiffy can be amny durations but the jiffy based on the Plank Length is the quickest of all but it is based on a graininess quantification of space.
Is it Ok to be sad for a long period of time?
