In the U.S., one trillion is written as the number 1 followed by 12 zeros (1,000,000,000,000). One year of clock time =. (60sec/min) x (60 min/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (365.25 da) = 3.16 x 107 sec. One trillion seconds of ordinary clock time =. (1012 sec)/(3.16 x 107 sec/yr) = 31,546 years!Six trillion seconds equals 189,276 years. Now, as an aside, along with the nearly six trillion miles in the light-year, you might be interested to know that there are nearly five trillion dollars in the current U.S. national debt.Is it any wonder that our politicians in Washington are concerned?ix trillion seconds equals 189,276 years.
