Description

The second is the unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), historically defined as 1⁄86400 of a day – this factor derived from the division of the day first into 24 hours, then to 60 minutes and finally to 60 seconds each. "Minute" comes from the Latin pars minuta prima, meaning "first small part", and "second" comes from the pars minuta secunda, "second small part".

ਸਕਿੰਟ ਜਾਂ ਸੈਕੰਡ ਆਮ ਭਾਸ਼ਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਮੇਂ ਦੀ ਸਭ ਤੋ ਛੋਟੀ ਇਕਾਈ ਮੰਨੀ ਜਾਦੀ ਹੈ ਪਰ ਵਿਗਿਆਨਕ ਇਹ ਮੰਨਦੇ ਹਨ ਕਿ ਸਕਿੰਟ ਨੂੰ ਅਗੇ ਕਈ ਹਿਸਿਆਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਵੰਡਿਆ ਜਾ ਸਕਦਾ ਹੈ। ਅੰਤਰਰਾਸ਼ਟਰੀ ਮਿਆਰ ਵਿੱਚ ਸਮੇਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਹੋਰ ਇਕਾਈਆਂ ਸਕਿੰਟਾਂ ਵਿੱਚ ਲਈਆਂ ਜਾਂਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ। ਇਹ ਇਕਾਈਆਂ ਦਸਾਂ ਦੇ ਗੁਣਾ ਵਿੱਚ ਹਨ। ਇਕ ਮਿਲੀਸਕਿੰਟ ਇਕ ਸੈਕਿੰਡ ਦਾ ਹਜ਼ਾਰਵਾਂ ਅਤੇ 'ਇਕ ਨੈਨੋ ਸੈਕਿੰਡ' ਇਕ ਸਕਿੰਟ ਦਾ ਇਕ ਅਰਬਵਾਂ ਹੈ। ਸਮੇਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਜ਼ਿਆਦਾਤਰ ਗੈਰ-ਅੰਤਰਰਾਸ਼ਟਰੀ ਸਟੈਂਡਰਡ ਇਕਾਈਆਂ ਜਿਵੇਂ ਕਿ ਘੰਟੇ ਅਤੇ ਮਿੰਟ ਵੀ ਸਕਿੰਟਾਂ 'ਤੇ ਅਧਾਰਤ ਹੁੰਦੀਆਂ ਹਨ।
