Convert shake to day (sidereal)
Please provide values below to convert shake [None] to day (sidereal) [None], or Convert day (sidereal) to shake.
1 None = 1.1606e-13 None. To convert shake to day (sidereal), multiply the value by 1.1606e-13; to go the other way, divide by it (1 None = 8.6164e+12 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 = 1.1606e-13 None
- 1 None = 8.6164e+12 None
- 10 None = 1.1606e-12 None
- 100 None = 1.1606e-11 None
How to Convert Shake to Day (Sidereal)
1 None = 1.16057628438613e-13 None
Example: convert 15 None to None:
15 None = 15 × 1.16057628438613e-13 None = 1.74086442657919e-12 None

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.
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.
