Re: unless otherwise. Originally Posted by Hi_there_Carl. The meanings of unless and unless otherwise are very similar and often the same. The phrase unless otherwise is usually used in giving instructions to make them more clear. Here are some equivalent phrases using unless and unless otherwise:
Definition of minute. 1a : the 60th part of an hour of time : 60 secondsb : the 60th part of a degree of angular measure Its latitude is 41 degrees 55 minute north. 2 : the distance one can traverse in a minute Five minutes down the road is a gas station.
The hour (common symbol: h or hr) is a unit of measurement of time. In modern usage, an hour comprises 60 minutes, or 3,600 seconds. It is approximately 1â24 of a mean solar day. An hour in the Universal Coordinated Time (UTC) time standard can include a negative or positive leap second, and may therefore have a duration of 3,599 or 3,601 seconds for adjustment purposes.
