Important Notes
  • A minute (min) is 60 seconds in length and an hour is 60 minutes or 3600 seconds in length. A day is usually 24 hours or 86,400 seconds in length; however, the duration of a calendar day can vary due to Daylight saving time and Leap seconds.
  • A week includes 7 days, fortnight has 14 days and subdivisions of the day include the hour (1/24 of a day), which was further subdivided into minutes and finally seconds.
  • A year is the time for the earth to revolve around the sun. Year-based units include the olympiad (4 years), the lustrum (5 years), the indiction (15 years), the decade, the century and the millennium.
  • Planck time (which is equal to 5.39×10−44 s) is the time light takes to travel one Planck length. Theoretically, this is the smallest time measurement that will ever be possible.
  • The Svedberg is a time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually of proteins). It is defined as 10−13 seconds (100 fs). Also, the galactic year is based on the rotation of the galaxy and usually measured in million years.

Time

Time in physics is operationally defined as "what a clock reads". Time is one of the seven fundamental physical quantities in both the International System of Units (SI) and International System of Quantities. The SI base unit of time is the second.
In classical non-relativistic physics, it is a scalar quantity. Time can be combined mathematically with other physical quantities to derive other concepts such as motion, kinetic energy and time-dependent fields. The time has long been an important subject of study in philosophy, science and many other important fields.

Speed
Speed Converter

In everyday use and in kinematics, the Speed of an object is the magnitude of the change of its position. The average speed of an object in an interval of time is the distance travelled by the object divided by the duration of the interval, whereas the instantaneous speed is the limit of the average speed as the duration of the . . . .

Distance
Distance Converter

Distance is a numerical measurement of how far apart objects or points are. In mathematics, a distance function or metric is a generalization of the concept of physical distance, a way of describing what it means for elements of some space to be "close to" or "far away from" each other. Both distance and displacement . . . .

Triangles
Triangles (Perimeter & Area)

A triangle is a polygon with three edges and three vertices. It is one of the basic shapes in geometry. In Euclidean geometry, any three points when non-collinear, determine a unique triangle and simultaneously, a unique plane (i.e. a two-dimensional Euclidean space). In other words, there is only one plane that . . . .

Angle
Angle Converter

In plane geometry, an Angle (Latin word angulus, meaning "corner") is the figure formed by two rays called the sides of the angle, sharing a common endpoint called the vertex of the angle. Angle is also used to designate the measure of an angle or of a rotation. This measure is the ratio of the length of a circular arc to its . . . .

Area
Area Converter & Calculator

Area is the quantity that expresses the extent of a two-dimensional figure or shape or planar lamina, in the plane. Area can be understood as the amount of material with a given thickness that would be necessary to fashion a model of the shape or the amount of paint necessary to cover the surface with a single . . . .

History of Measurement :

The earliest recorded systems of calculations and measures originate in the 3rd or 4th millennium BC. Even the very earliest civilizations needed measurement for purposes of agriculture, construction and trade. Early standard units might only have applied to a single community or small region, with every area developing its own standards for lengths, areas, volumes and masses.

With the development of manufacturing technologies and the growing importance of trade between communities and ultimately across the Earth, standardized weights and measures became critical. Starting in the 18th century, modernized, simplified and uniform systems of weights and measures were developed, with the fundamental units defined by ever more precise methods in the science of metrology.
