To help compare orders of magnitude of different times this page lists times between 10² seconds and 10³ seconds (100 seconds to 16.7 minutes). See also times of other orders of magnitude.

• Times shorter than 100 seconds
• 100 seconds = 1 minute 40 seconds
• 315 seconds (10^-5 years) after the Big Bang -- first nuclei form
• 500 seconds -- approximate time it takes light to travel between earth and the sun
• 660 seconds = 11 minutes -- duration of a 1000-foot reel of 35mm motion picture film
• 886 seconds -- half-life of a free neutron
• 1000 seconds -- 16.7 minutes
• Times longer than 1000 seconds (16.7 minutes)
