60 seconds
One minute exactly
Sixty seconds is one minute.
The phrase emphasizes duration or urgency more than simply saying "a minute": I'll be ready in 60 seconds.
It often implies a countdown or precise timing: You have 60 seconds to complete the challenge.
The TV news program *60 Minutes* took its name from the phrase.
