Microsecond
A microsecond is a unit of time equal to one millionth of a second (10^-6 seconds).
History/Origin
The microsecond was introduced in the 20th century as part of the metric system to measure very short time intervals, especially in electronics and computing.
Current Use
Microseconds are used in various fields such as computing, telecommunications, and physics to measure very brief durations, including processor speeds, signal timings, and scientific experiments.
Year (Leap)
A leap year is a year that has 366 days, including an extra day (February 29) added to keep the calendar year synchronized with the astronomical year.
History/Origin
The concept of adding an extra day to the calendar was introduced by the Julian calendar in 45 BC and refined by the Gregorian calendar in 1582 to correct inaccuracies in the Julian system, establishing the current rules for leap years.
Current Use
Leap years are used in the Gregorian calendar to maintain alignment with Earth's orbit around the Sun, occurring every four years with exceptions for century years not divisible by 400, ensuring calendar accuracy over long periods.
