1 s ≈ 0.0000115740740741 d
1 d = 86400 s

Formula: d ≈ s × 0.0000115740740741
s = d × 86400

Definitions: 1 d = 24 h

The second (s) is the SI base unit of time, defined by 9,192,631,770 cycles of the radiation of the cesium-133 atom. All other time units used in science and engineering are built on it.

The day (d) here is exactly 86,400 seconds, or 24 hours. The real solar day varies slightly, and some days with leap seconds last 86,401 seconds, but this converter uses the standard 24-hour day.
