What is a Day?
The day equals exactly 86,400 seconds and corresponds to one mean solar day — one rotation of the Earth relative to the Sun. The solar day varies slightly throughout the year; the 86,400-second definition is an average. Days are the most intuitive time unit for human planning: work schedules, deadlines, and calendars are all structured around days. There are 365 days in a common year and 366 in a leap year.
What is a Second?
The second is the SI base unit of time, defined since 1967 as exactly 9,192,631,770 oscillations of the cesium-133 atom. It is the foundation of all other time units. Atomic clocks based on this definition are accurate to within one second every 300 million years. Human reaction time and the duration of a typical heartbeat are both roughly in the range of 0.2–1.0 seconds.
