What is Millisecond?
A '''millisecond''' (sometimes shortened to 'ms') is one thousandth of a [[second]]. This page lists times between '''10<sup>−3</sup> seconds''' and 10<sup>−2</sup> seconds (1 [[milli]]<nowiki>second</nowiki> to 10 milliseconds). One millisecond contains 1000 [[microsecond]]s. There are 1000 milliseconds in one second. * 1 millisecond – the time it takes for a normal [[flash (photo)|flash]] in a camera to finish. * 1 millisecond – time taken for sound to travel 34 [[Centimeter|cm]] * 1.000692286 milliseconds – time taken for light to travel 300&nbsp;km in a vacuum * 2 milliseconds – [[Half-life (element)|half life]] of [[hassium]]-265 * 3 milliseconds – a [[housefly]]’s wing flap * 3.4 milliseconds – half life of [[meitnerium]]-266 * 5 milliseconds – a honey[[bee]]’s wing flap * 8 milliseconds – 1/125 of a second (125), a [[camera]] [[shutter speed]] * 9 milliseconds – normal [[seek time]] for a 7200rpm [[hard disk]] * 33.3 milliseconds - the amount of time one frame lasts in 30fps video * 30 to 100 milliseconds - normal [[lag|latency]] for a [[broadband internet]] connection * 100 milliseconds - the [[reaction speed]] of a human * 102 milliseconds - [[Half-life (element)|half-life]] of [[bohrium]]-262 * 134 milliseconds - the amount of time it takes by [[light]] to travel around the [[earth]]'s [[equator]] * 200 to 670 milliseconds - the [[tempo]] of modern dance music (128 - 150 [[beats per minute|BPM]]) * 300 to 400 milliseconds - the [[blinking|blink]] of a [[eye|human eye]] * 838 milliseconds - [[Half-life (element)|half-life]] of [[lithium]]-8 The basic interval, in time manners, in most of the programming languages is 1 millisecond . e.g. the [[Command (computing)|command]] delay() in [[C++ (programming language)|C++]]. Others use second interval. {{Ordersofmagnitudeseconds}} [[Category:Units of time]] [[Category:Orders of magnitude]]
