Seconds = Milliseconds × 0.001
Millisecond
Definition- A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time that equals one-thousandth (1/1000) of a second. It is a very small fraction of time used to measure quick or instantaneous events.
Origin- The term millisecond comes from the International System of Units (SI), where milli means “one thousandth.” Hence, 1 millisecond = 0.001 seconds.
Current Use- Milliseconds are widely used in techn...

Millisecond
Definition- A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time that equals one-thousandth (1/1000) of a second. It is a very small fraction of time used to measure quick or instantaneous events.
Origin- The term millisecond comes from the International System of Units (SI), where milli means “one thousandth.” Hence, 1 millisecond = 0.001 seconds.
Current Use- Milliseconds are widely used in technology and science to measure short durations such as response times in computers or displays, sound wave frequencies, internet latency, and even wing flaps of birds or insects.
Second
Definition- A second (s) is the base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI). It is currently defined based on the radiation frequency of a cesium-133 atom, making it one of the most precise measurements in science.
Origin- Historically, a second was defined as 1/86,400 of a day, based on the Earth’s rotation. Later, in 1967, scientists redefined it in atomic terms as 9,192,631,770 cycles of radiation corresponding to specific energy transitions in a cesium-133 atom.
Current Use- Seconds are used universally to measure time in every field from daily life (clocks, timers) to scientific research and technology (physics, computing, and engineering).
Millisecond to Second Conversion Formula
1 millisecond = 0.001 seconds
1 second = 1000 millisecond
Formula:
To convert milliseconds to seconds: Seconds = Milliseconds × 0.001
Example
Convert 15 milliseconds to seconds: 15 × 0.001 = 0.015 seconds
So, 15 ms = 0.015 s.
