Shakes

A shake is a unit of time equal to 10 nanoseconds, primarily used in nuclear physics to measure the time between events in a nuclear reaction. The term 'shake' comes from the phrase 'two shakes of a lamb’s tail,' indicating a very short period. It is crucial in the study of nuclear processes, where events happen on an incredibly fast timescale.

Seconds

The second is the fundamental unit of time, often considered the building block of more extended periods. It is defined as the time it takes for a specific number of vibrations of a cesium atom (9,192,631,770 to be precise). Seconds are crucial in everyday life, used to measure short durations and split more extended periods into manageable parts. From tracking the time during a race to counting down for a rocket launch, the second is essential in both everyday and scientific contexts.
