Measuring Time

Time is the measurement of the sequence and duration of events occurring in the past, present, and future. Time is a nonspatial continuum that is measured in terms of events which succeed one another from past through present to future.[1]

Calendars, clocks and watches are all instruments for measuring time. Calendars are used to measure years, months, and days, while clocks are used to measure hours, minutes, and seconds.

A year is equal to 12 months, a month is equal to 28-31 days, a day is equal to 24 hours, an hour is equal to 60 minutes, and a minute is equal to 60 seconds.
