What are Shake and Minute

A 'shake' is a unit of time equivalent to 10 nanoseconds, or 10 billionths of a second. It's rooted in nuclear physics and was coined to represent the time it takes for a neutron to travel a short distance. Specifically, it relates to the time between the release of neutrons in a nuclear reaction and their subsequent capture, which occurs rapidly, hence the term 'shake' to imply a very brief interval.

A 'minute' is a unit of time traditionally understood as 1/60th of an hour, or 60 seconds. It is a universally recognized measurement that is used across various fields, from timekeeping to the calculation of angles in navigation. The minute's origins can be traced back to the ancient civilizations of Sumeria and Egypt, where they divided the day into smaller, consistent parts.

History of Shake and Minute

The Shake to Minute Converter is a modern tool that emerged from the need to convert nuclear physics measurements into more conventional units of time. Historically, the concept of 'shakes' was pertinent to atomic research, where precision timing was crucial. This converter allows scientists and engineers to relate these minuscule timeframes to the more comprehensible minutes.

Solved Examples s to min

Example 1:
Let's convert 2,000 shakes to minutes:
2,000 shakes = 2,000 x (1.6667 x 10^-9) min = 3.3334 x 10^-6 min

Example 2:
Now, convert 750,000 shakes to minutes:
750,000 shakes = 750,000 x (1.6667 x 10^-9) min = 0.00125 min
