About Centuries
A century = exactly 100 Gregorian years ≈ 3.156 × 10⁹ s. Standard unit of historical periodisation (the 20th century, the 18th-century Enlightenment). IPCC projects warming and sea-level rise on century timescales. Precession of the equinoxes advances ~1.39°/century, so zodiac constellations no longer match their named seasons. Ice-core and radiocarbon records are commonly displayed at century resolution. 1 century = 100 yr.
About Minutes
A minute (min) = exactly 60 s, inherited from Babylonian sexagesimal astronomy. Medieval astronomers named the sixtieth part of a degree 'pars minuta prima' (hence minute); its sixtieth 'pars minuta secunda' (hence second). Running performance is expressed in min/km or min/mile; music tempo in BPM (beats per minute, ~40-220); angles in degrees-minutes-seconds (DMS). 1 min = 60 s = 1/60 h.
