What are Second and Minute

A second, the base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), is defined as the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation corresponding to the transition between two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the cesium-133 atom at 0 Kelvin.

A minute is a unit of time traditionally measured as 1/60th of an hour or 60 seconds. In the modern metric system, a minute remains one of the few non-SI units accepted for use with SI units, recognized for its importance in timekeeping and everyday use.
