Millisecond

A millisecond (ms) is a unit of time equal to one-thousandth (1/1,000) of a second. It is used to measure very short durations of time, commonly in fields like computing, telecommunications, and physics, where high precision is needed.

Origin:

The millisecond is derived from the second, which is the base unit of time in the International System of Units (SI). The prefix "milli-" in millisecond comes from the Latin word mille, meaning thousand. The concept of dividing the second into smaller units like milliseconds arose as timekeeping and measurement systems became more precise, especially with advancements in technology such as digital clocks, high-speed computing, and scientific experiments. Milliseconds are now commonly used in many scientific and technological contexts to measure time intervals that are too short for seconds to be practical.
