The prefix nano (n) means 10-9 of something, in this case 1 ns are equivalent to 10-9 s. So 1 second is composed by 109 ns.
How many gigaseconds are in a kilosecond?
There are 1,000 megaseconds in a gigasecond and 1,000 kiloseconds in a megasecond. Therefore, there are 1,000,000 kiloseconds in a gigasecond.
A paperclip is typically made of galvanized steel wire, which is a type of steel that has been coated with a layer of zinc to prevent rusting. This material provides the paperclip with its strength and flexibility to securely hold papers together.
Is a microsecond smaller or larger than second?
A microsecond is smaller than a second. One microsecond is equal to one millionth of a second.
The number of nanoseconds in a second?
There are 1 billion nanoseconds in a second. This is because one second is equal to 1,000,000,000 nanoseconds when converted.
How many nanoseconds are in second?
1 ns (nanosecond) = 10-9s 1s / 10-9s = 109 109 = 1000 000 000 1 second = 1000 000 000 ns (nanosecond)
Why were clocks put back by one second on 1 July 1983?
Clocks were set back by one second on 1 July 1983 as a one-time adjustment to bring the Coordinated Universal Time (UTC) closer to mean solar time. This adjustment was made to account for discrepancies that had accumulated in UTC due to variations in the Earth's rotation speed.
If you are Traveling at 1 mile per second how many minutes does it take to travel 1000 miles?
It would take approximately 16.67 minutes to travel 1000 miles if you are traveling at 1 mile per second. This calculation is based on dividing 1000 miles by 60 seconds (which equals 16.67 minutes).
Time can't be stopped but changing the relativity of time to a physical entity has been done with particle accelerators. Massive speed will slow down atomic activity.
The thing about time is even if it did stop nobody would know about it and nothing would change because of it.
{Why people use this as their forum for for proving they're dumb is beyond me: of course it's possible to stop time. You just need the gravity of a large singularity to accomplish it.]
OK champ, go get a large singularity then and prove this overly simplistic gibberish as fact. Clearly you don't understand the inherent fallacy of claiming time to be stopped. Nobody with any sense about them explains stopping time in such simplistic terms. The concept you refer to is at best, speculative opinion, it cannot be accepted as fact. This event would involve the entire universe, or "a large singularity" having no movement, not even molecular activity. This condition would reflect the state of the universe immediately proceeding a "big bang", there is no reason to assume time stops during this event.
And don't name call on wiki, it's unbecoming of someone attempting to create the persona of intelligence.
Simpler Answer*** Time has been created by humanity to understand time forget hours and minutes. Now imagine for time to go forward there must be movement, for there to be movement their must be energy, energy is very abundant in our universe but it is NOT infinite. Once the universe has no energy everything will be absolute zero with zero movement. Hence, time has stopped. However this doesn't last long, gravity only requires two objects that can be attracted to each other so their will be movement. Now chunks of rock will build up large massive stones, if to extremely large stones collide together they will cause friction. Friction is energy and will be radiated across the universe. Inertia will also play a large part in radiating energy across the universe. The process of coming from complete zero to energy abundance is around 1 to 1000 trillion years of waiting so not so long!
If space and time are moving, they had to come from somewhere, so there had to be a zero point when they came into existence. How could time always have been? That doesn't make any sense. Not that the universe, or multi-verse makes any sense either, but how about particles (or ships) that could travel faster than the speed of light? Wouldn't they travel back in time, but before doing so reach a point where time stopped? Like in a car rolling forward, if you put it in reverse, before it goes backward, if even only for a second, between the two motions of travel the car will stop. If a spaceship is accelerating and time is slowing down before it will go backward in time, time would have to stop.
+++blatent problem with not-so-simple answer.
Energy CAN NOT be created NOR destroyed. Hence even --IF-- it was finite in existence(there is no reason to assume it) it's existence is infinate. Newton's Law's kid, better study the basics if your going to attempt to get into physics of the unknown. We use to term infinite not only in it's theoritecal sense but also when there is no known value, so at this point in time energy, as well as matter, exists in infinite amount. It may be proven otherwise sometime but at this point it is incorrect to state it is not infinite. Don't assume speculation otherwise is anything new, it isn't, science works on observable facts not wild speculation.
You may also wish to considers Einsteins Theory of Relaivity where E=mcc. If mass is infinite and energy is a product of mass times the speed of light, squared, then HOW could energy be less than mass. You do know infinity is still infinity, no matter how great a number is DIVIDED into it. You think you know more than Einstein or any physicist since? You suggest concepts and then fudge their logic to fit your opinion, to be a scientist you need to conform your ideas to the facts, not the facts to your idea as you have done here.
It is also a fundimental flaw to refer to time stopping during a sequence of events. If an event happens after time supposidly stopped, then time couldn't have stopped. Time can exist in a vacuum without matter nor energy. In human terms, time cannot be stopped nor is it possible to suggest time stopping without making a logical error, as you have done here. Even though this subject is purely speculative and there is no right answer, your theory defies basic logic in more than a few ways. Also the question is "is it possible to.." not "will time ever stop" big difference.
Your further speculation on speed vs. time is reiterating what I already said in my first answer, before you called me stupid for saying that. But you go on to assume that time would stop with speed. If a spaceship travels fast enough to slow time, this is only relivient to the spaceship, time will be the same everywhere else so nothing has changed. No one has ever suggested it is possible to stop time or to go back in time in this manner. The theory only suggests time is relative in speed to speed, nothing more.
This is turning into a forum, but I don't think anyone should say time can't be stopped. There was a time when science said nothing could travel faster than the speed of sound. Now we can travel at what 20 times the speed of sound? The space shuttle travels at around 17,500 miles per hour. So I think in some distant future stopping time, even if only locally, may be possible. And if science never figures that one out, not that I know why they would even want to, God may yet prove to be real. If that's the case, he would be able to stop time.
P.S. When you die, doesn't time for your energy stop?
What is the smallest unit of measurement in time?
They just divide up seconds, into milli- micro- nano- etc. It's possible that the shortest interval of time is 10 to the -43 power seconds ... if time is discreet. Further details: The smallest measurable and meaningful unit of time is Planck time. In physics, this is equal to the time it takes for light to travel, in a vacuum, a distance of 1 Planck length. However, since most of us cannot relate to physics, the shortest unit of time is the Yoctosecond, which is one septillionth (short scale) of a second.
Which timepiece has the most moving parts?

A car accelerates from a standstill to 60 kmhr in 10 seconds What is its acceleration?
The acceleration of the car can be calculated using the formula: acceleration = (final velocity - initial velocity) / time. Converting the initial velocity of 0 km/hr to m/s and final velocity of 60 km/hr to m/s, and plugging in the values, we get the acceleration to be 2 m/s^2.
Do biennial plants bloom each year after the second year?
No, biennial plants typically complete their life cycle in two years. They grow leaves and roots in the first year, then flower, produce seeds, and die in the second year. They do not bloom each year after the second year unless new plants grow from the seeds they produce.
What is dead-beat in terms of an instrument?
A "dead-beat" in music refers to a note or tone that lacks resonance or sustain. It usually means the sound cuts off abruptly rather than fading out naturally. This can affect the overall quality of the sound produced by the instrument.
What is 7 seconds converted into milliseconds?
7 seconds is equal to 7000 milliseconds, because there are 1000 milliseconds in 1 second.
Do different wavelengths of light travel through space at the same speed?
Yes, different wavelengths of light all travel at the same speed in a vacuum, which is the speed of light (approximately 299,792 kilometers per second). This characteristic is a fundamental principle of physics known as the constancy of the speed of light.
Information of time-measuring devices?
Time-measuring devices are instruments used to track and display time. Common examples include clocks, watches, hourglasses, sundials, and digital timers. These devices are crucial for activities that require precise timing, such as scheduling appointments, managing work hours, or tracking athletic performance.
Depending on where you live, observance of Daylight Savings Time is handled either on a local, state, or national basis. The EU does not follow American practice for DST so their time change occurs on a different date than ours. Every spring and fall there are a few weeks when one place has made the changeover but the other has not, so they're out of sync. Once both have made the changeover, time differences are back to "normal". Check out places like Arizona, where local citizens voted not to observe DST at all. Major parts of the state remain on standard time all year. However, some individual towns, U.S. parklands, and the autonomous Indian Nations do observe DST, so as you drive across the state you can end up resetting your watch every 50 or 100 miles!!!
