A recorded female voice says: "Es wird mit dem Summerton 15 Uhr, 53 Minuten und 10 Sekunden", meaning "At the buzzing tone, the time will be 15 hours, 53 minutes and 10 seconds", followed by a short pause and a 1 kHz, 0.25 seconds long beep (even though the announcement "buzzing tone" suggests otherwise).
The time price in 1938 to purchase an ounce of Hershey's chocolate for a minimum wage worker would have been about 8 minutes ( 0.033 / 0.25 = 7.92 minutes (0.132 hours)) and the time price in 2009 would have been about 4 minutes ( 0.50 / 7.25 = 4.14 minutes (0.069 hours)). In other words, even though the cost of Hershey's ...
[9] [failed verification] Each degree was subdivided into 60 minutes and each minute into 60 seconds. [10] [11] Thus, one Babylonian degree was equal to four minutes in modern terminology, one Babylonian minute to four modern seconds, and one Babylonian second to 1 / 15 (approximately 0.067) of a modern second.
A millisecond is to one second, as one second is to approximately 16.67 minutes. ... this page lists times between 10 −3 seconds and 10 0 seconds ...
An apparent solar day can be 20 seconds shorter or 30 seconds longer than a mean solar day. [12] Long or short days occur in succession, so the difference builds up until mean time is ahead of apparent time by about 14 minutes near February 6 and behind apparent time by about 16 minutes near November 3.

There are twelve hours in a half day, numbered one to twelve for both the ante meridiem (a.m.) and the post meridiem (p.m.). 12:00 p.m. is midday or noon, and 12:00 a.m. is midnight. The basic units of time (60 seconds, 60 minutes, 24 hours) are evenly divisible by twelve into smaller units.
For 6/6 = 1.0 acuity, the size of a letter on the Snellen chart or Landolt C chart is a visual angle of 5 arc minutes (1 arc min = 1/60 of a degree), which is a 43 point font at 20 feet. [10] By the design of a typical optotype (like a Snellen E or a Landolt C), the critical gap that needs to be resolved is 1/5 this value, i.e., 1 arc min.
