What is a second in time measurement?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
A second is a unit of time, and it's the basic unit of time in the International System of Units (SI). It's equal to the duration of 9,192,631,770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the caesium-133 atom.<|im_end|>

That sounds complicated. Is there a simpler explanation?<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>assistant
Think of a second as the time it takes to blink your eye or snap your fingers. It's a very short period of time.<|im_end|>
<|im_start|>user
Okay, that makes sense.<|im_end|>
