What is Microsecond?
A '''microsecond''' (sometimes shortened to '''μs''') is one millionth of a [[second]]. This page lists times between '''10<sup>−6</sup> seconds''' (1 microsecond) and 10<sup>−5</sup> seconds (10 microseconds). One microsecond contains 1000 [[nanosecond]]s. There are 1000 microseconds in one [[millisecond]]. * 0.7 microseconds - half-life of oganesson * 1 microsecond – the amount of time it takes for a high-speed [[camera]] flash to finish. * 2 microseconds – the lifetime of a [[muonium]] particle * 2.68 microseconds – the amount of time subtracted from the Earth [[Day]] as a result of the [[2004 Indian Ocean earthquake]]. * 3.33564095 microseconds – the time it takes for [[light]] to travel one [[kilometer]] in a vacuum * 5.4 microseconds – the time it takes for light to travel one [[mile]] in a [[vacuum]] * 15 microseconds – the amount of time added to an Earth year by the [[Moon]] every year. * 38 microseconds - difference in [[GPS]] [[satellite (artificial)|satellite]] time because of [[General relativity|relativity]] * 240 microseconds (0.24 milliseconds) - [[Half-life (element)|half-life]] of [[Copernicium]] * 45.9 microseconds - The time dilation of GPS satellites at 20,200 km for 24 hours.
