Convert shake to second
Enter a value below to convert shake [None] to second [s]. Reverse conversion: Convert second to shake.
1 None = 1e-08 s. To convert shake to second, multiply the value by 1e-08; to go the other way, divide by it (1 s = 100000000 None). Both units measure time and appear in everyday as well as technical calculations, so switching between them quickly is often useful.
Shake to Second: Quick Reference
- 1 None = 1e-08 s
- 1 s = 100000000 None
- 10 None = 1e-07 s
- 100 None = 1e-06 s
How to Convert Shake to Second
1 None = 1e-08 s
Example: convert 15 None to s:
15 None = 15 × 1e-08 s = 1.5e-07 s

Shake: Definition and Use
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.
Second: Definition and Use
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.
Shake to Second: Frequently Asked Questions
What is 1 shake in second?
1 shake (None) = 1e-08 second (s).
How do you convert shake to second?
Multiply the shake value by 1e-08. For example, 25 None × 1e-08 = 2.5e-07 s.
What is 10 shake in second?
10 None = 1e-07 s.
Which unit is larger, the shake or the second?
The second is the larger unit: 1 None equals only 1e-08 s.
