1 E-9 s

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

To help compare orders of magnitude of different times this page lists times between 10−9 seconds and 10−8 seconds (1 nanosecond and 10 nanoseconds). A nanosecond is one billionth of a second. See also times of other orders of magnitude.

  • shorter times
  • 1.0 nanoseconds (1.0 ns) – cycle time for frequency 1 GHz, radio wavelength 0.3 m
  • 1.02 nanoseconds (approximately) – time taken for light to travel 1 foot
  • 3.3 nanoseconds (approximately) – the time it takes a common 3.0 GHz computer CPU to add two integers
  • 3.33564095 nanoseconds (approximately) – time taken for light to travel 1 metre
  • longer times
