Demore Barnes (born February 26, 1976) is a Canadian actor. Barnes is best known for his roles as Sergeant First Class Hector Williams in the CBS military action television series The Unit, the archangel Raphael in Supernatural and Deputy Chief Christian Garland in Law & Order: Special Victims Unit.
Along with Hector Williams, he instructed a SWAT unit in advanced closed quarters battle tactics, and designed the deliberate assault plan for the Braydon School takedown in "In Loco Parentis". He along with Mack Gerhardt, served as a spotter, for Bob Brown and Hector Williams, who were snipers, when they engaged vehicles and personnel at 2320 ...
The Jiffy is the amount of time light takes to travel one femtometre (about the diameter of a nucleon). The Planck time is the time that light takes to travel one Planck length. The TU (for time unit) is a unit of time defined as 1024 μs for use in engineering. The svedberg is a time unit used for sedimentation rates (usually
In the International System of Units (SI), the unit of time is the second (symbol: s). It has been defined since 1967 as "the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium 133 atom", and is an SI base unit.

The base units and the derived units formed as the product of powers of the base units with a numerical factor of one form a coherent system of units. Every physical quantity has exactly one coherent SI unit. For example, 1 m/s = 1 m / (1 s) is the coherent derived unit for velocity.
Gaussian units have only length, mass, and time as base quantities, with no separate electromagnetic dimension. Other quantities, such as power and speed, are derived from the base quantities: for example, speed is distance per unit time. Historically, a wide range of units was used for the same type of quantity.
A derived unit is used for expressing any other quantity, and is a product of powers of base units. For example, in the modern metric system, length has the unit metre and time has the unit second, and speed has the derived unit metre per second. [5]: 15 Density, or mass per unit volume, has the unit kilogram per cubic metre. [5]: 434
10 −14 qs: The length of one Planck time (t P = / ≈ 5.39 × 10 −44 s) [3] is the briefest physically meaningful span of time. It is the unit of time in the natural units system known as Planck units. 10 −30: quectosecond: qs Quectosecond, (quecto-+ second), is one nonillionth of a second 10 −27: rontosecond: rs
