"Against the clock" means "against time." If you're "racing against the clock," it means you're in a great hurry, doing things as fast as possible, as in: "With her term paper due on Monday, she was racing against the clock to finish it." The term comes from various sports in which the contestants do not directly compete against each other but instead are timed individually, the winner being the fastest one. Its figurative use dates from the mid-1900s.

Minute is a unit of time defined as equal to 60 seconds. Historically, the word "minute" comes from the Latin pars minuta prima, meaning "first small part". This division of the hour can be further refined with a "second small part" (Latin: pars minuta secunda), and this is where the word "second" comes from. In 1267, the medieval scientist Roger Bacon, writing in Latin, defined the division of time between full moons as a number of hours, minutes, seconds, thirds, and fourths (horae, minuta, secunda, tertia, and quarta) after noon on specified calendar dates. Jost Bürgi was the first clock maker to include a minute hand on clock for astronomer Tycho Brahe in 1577.

The average NHL hockey game length is about 60 minutes. There are three 20-minute periods in a game, so the actual playing time is only about 45 minutes. There is also a 15-minute intermission between the second and third periods. So, if you take out all the stoppages in play, the actual length of a hockey game is only about 30 minutes.

Jet lag, also called jet lag disorder, is a temporary sleep problem that can affect anyone who quickly travels across several time zones. Your body has its own internal clock, called circadian rhythms. They signal to your body when to stay awake and when to sleep. Jet lag occurs because your body's internal clock is synced to your original time zone. It hasn't changed to the time zone of where you've traveled.

Leap years happen when we add one day to the end of February in order to align our calendar with the Earth's orbit. Once every four years, we tack a 29th day onto the end of February, which is usually 28 days long, making a leap year 366 days instead of 365. We generally refer to 365 as the number of days it takes for the Earth to orbit the sun, but it actually takes 365.242190 days or 365 days, 5 hours, 48 minutes, and 56 seconds, to be exact. To compensate for using a rounded number the rest of the time, we add this extra day periodically to keep our calendar in line with our equinoxes, solstices, and seasons.

A second is our base unit of time—base, but not the smallest. A base unit is a unit defined on its own terms upon which other units are based. That means that all our other units, such as minutes, hours, nanoseconds, and so on, are all based on seconds. You may already know that there are 60 minutes in an hour, but how many seconds is that? To figure it out, we’ll need to multiply. 60 seconds in one minute and 60 minutes in one hour means that 1hour=60*60. Calculate that out and you’ll find that 1 hour = 3,600 seconds.

Experts believe that the earliest water clock was buried in 1500 B.C. in the tomb of Amenhotep I. Around 325 B.C. Greeks began using water clocks to keep time. They called them clepsydras, which meant water thief. These water clocks were vessels, or containers, that sloped at the sides and had a small hole close to the bottom. Water dripped from this hole steadily and constantly. Bowl, or cylinder-shaped vessels were marked on the inside so that the passage of time could be measured. The water dripped steadily into this bowl-shaped vessel. The passage of time was marked by a float in the water that rose to meet the markings, which represented hours, within the bowl.
