Answer 1

The second (symbol: s; abbreviation: sec.) is the name of a unit of time, and is the International System of Units (SI) base unit of time.

Subdivisions of the second, such as millisecond (one thousandth of a second), and (although encountered less frequently in practice) multiples of the second, such as kilosecond (1,000 seconds), can be indicated by adding SI prefixes to second.

Answer 2

Commonly, ordinal numbers, or ordinals for short, are numbers used to denote the position in an ordered sequence: first, second, third, fourth, etc., whereas a cardinal number says "how many there are": one, two, three, four, etc. (See How to name numbers.)

Answer 3

Origin: 1250–1300; ME (adj., n. and adv.) < OF (adj.) < L secundus following, next, second, equiv. to sec- (base of sequÄ« to follow) + -undus adj. suffix]
