What is a femtosecond?

A femtosecond is one quadrillionth of a second (10^-15 seconds) used to measure ultra-short time intervals.

What does a century represent?

A century is a time period equal to 100 years used commonly to describe historical or climatic durations.

Why convert femtoseconds to centuries?

This conversion helps compare extremely short physical events to long-term historical or climatic time scales.
