To help compare orders of magnitude of different times this page lists times between 10−3 seconds and 10−2 seconds (1.0 to 10 milliseconds). See also times of other orders of magnitude.
- shorter times
- 1.0 milliseconds – cycle time for frequency 1 kHz
- 1 ms – duration of light for typical photo flash strobe
- 1 ms – repetition interval of GPS C/A PN code
- 1.000692286 ms – time taken for light to travel 300 km in a vacuum
- 2 ms – half life of hassium-265
- 2.27 ms – cycle time for the A above middle C in music (440 Hz). If a tuning device for musical instruments generates just one tone, it is probably this tone.
- 3 ms – a housefly’s wing flap
- 3.4 ms – half life of meitnerium-266
- 5 ms – a honeybee’s wing flap
- 8 ms – camera shutter speed at setting 125
- 9 ms – typical maximum seek time for a 7200rpm hard disk
- longer times
