The day equals 86,400 seconds — the mean time for Earth to complete one rotation relative to the Sun (solar day). A sidereal day (relative to distant stars) is about 4 minutes shorter: 23 h 56 min 4 s. Most practical usage means solar day.

Real-world: International shipping: 2–7 days typical. Global work-week: 5 days in most countries. Human circadian rhythm: 24 h ± 30 min.

The minute equals 60 seconds exactly. It is the base unit for short daily-life durations — meetings, cooking times, exercise intervals. The Babylonian sexagesimal system gave us the 60-second minute (and 60-minute hour).

Real-world: Standard meeting: 30 or 60 min. Pasta: 8–12 min. UK to Paris on Eurostar: 134 min.
