Convert day (sidereal) to second

Please provide values below to convert day (sidereal) [None] to second [s], or Convert second to day (sidereal).

1 None = 86164.0905 s. To convert day (sidereal) to second, multiply the value by 86164.0905; to go the other way, divide by it (1 s = 1.16057628439e-05 None). Both units measure time and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.

Quick Reference

  • 1 None = 86164.0905 s

Day (Sidereal)

A sidereal day is the time it takes for the Earth to complete one rotation relative to distant stars, approximately 23 hours, 56 minutes, and 4.1 seconds.

History/Origin

The concept of the sidereal day has been used in astronomy for centuries to measure Earth's rotation relative to fixed stars, differing slightly from the solar day used in everyday timekeeping.

Current Use

Sidereal days are primarily used in astronomy and celestial navigation to track the positions of stars and other celestial objects accurately.


Second

The second (symbol: s) is the base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI), used to measure durations and intervals.

History/Origin

The second was originally defined as 1/86400 of a mean solar day. It was later redefined in 1967 based on atomic properties, specifically as the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of radiation corresponding to the transition between two hyperfine levels of the cesium-133 atom.

Current Use

The second is universally used in science, technology, and everyday life to quantify time intervals, synchronize clocks, and coordinate activities across various fields.
