Picosecond To Shake Converter

Effortlessly Convert Picoseconds to Shakes with Precision

Discover the ease of converting picoseconds to shakes using Newtum's intuitive online tool, designed to meet the needs of scientists and engineers.

What are Picosecond and Shake

A picosecond is one trillionth of a second (1/1,000,000,000,000 seconds). This unit of time is incredibly brief, often used in the field of physics and timekeeping to measure laser pulses, atomic and molecular phenomena, and the time resolution of electronic devices.

A shake is an informal unit of time equal to 10 nanoseconds, or 10 billionths of a second. It originated from nuclear physics as a convenient way to discuss the very rapid processes that occur in nuclear detonations, where reactions happen on the order of shakes.
