Convert picosecond to shake
Please provide values below to convert picosecond [ps] to shake [None], or Convert shake to picosecond.
1 ps = 0.0001 None. To convert picosecond to shake, multiply the value by 0.0001; to go the other way, divide by it (1 None = 10000 ps). Both units measure time and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Quick Reference
- 1 ps = 0.0001 None
- 1 None = 10000 ps
- 10 ps = 0.001 None
- 100 ps = 0.01 None
How to Convert Picosecond to Shake
1 ps = 0.0001 None
Example: convert 15 ps to None:
15 ps = 15 × 0.0001 None = 0.0015 None

Picosecond
A picosecond is a unit of time equal to one trillionth of a second (10^-12 seconds).
History/Origin
The picosecond was introduced as a standard unit of time measurement in the 20th century, primarily used in physics and electronics to measure extremely short time intervals, especially in laser science and high-speed electronics.
Current Use
Picoseconds are used in fields such as physics, telecommunications, and electronics to measure ultrafast processes, signal delays, and the duration of events at the atomic and subatomic levels.
Shake
A shake is a unit of time equal to 1/60th of a second, used in measuring short durations.
History/Origin
The concept of the shake originated in nuclear physics and military contexts, particularly in the Manhattan Project, where it was used to denote the time it takes for light to travel 1 centimeter, approximately 3.33 nanoseconds. It was adopted as a convenient measure for very brief time intervals.
Current Use
Today, the shake is primarily used in nuclear physics and scientific research to describe extremely short time intervals, especially in nuclear reactions and particle physics. It is rarely used outside specialized scientific contexts.
Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 picosecond in shake?
1 picosecond (ps) = 0.0001 shake (None).
How do you convert picosecond to shake?
Multiply the picosecond value by 0.0001. For example, 25 ps × 0.0001 = 0.0025 None.
What is 10 picosecond in shake?
10 ps = 0.001 None.
Which unit is larger, the picosecond or the shake?
The shake is the larger unit: 1 ps equals only 0.0001 None.
