About Planck Time
The Planck time (t_P) = √(ℏG/c⁵) ≈ 5.391 × 10⁻⁴⁴ s — the time for light to travel one Planck length (~1.616 × 10⁻³⁵ m). Below this scale, general relativity and quantum mechanics both break down; a theory of quantum gravity is needed. No physical process or instrument approaches this timescale — it is a theoretical lower bound. Introduced by Max Planck in 1899. 1 t_P ≈ 5.391 × 10⁻⁴⁴ s.
About Hours
An hour (h) = exactly 3,600 s. The 24-hour day traces to ancient Egypt (10 daylight hours + 2 twilight + 12 night star-rise periods). Time zones are integer or half-hour UTC offsets (exceptions: India +5:30, Nepal +5:45). The kilowatt-hour = 3,600,000 J; Tc-99m half-life = 6.0067 h. Drug dosing and pharmacokinetics are expressed in hours. 1 h = 3,600 s = 60 min = 1/24 day.
