==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Kiloseconds''' ('''ks''') are a [[unit]] of [[time]] 1,000 times larger than the [[SI Unit]]; the [[Second]].
===About Kiloseconds===
: '''Kiloseconds''' are shortened to '''ks''' with a lower case k and an upper case '''s'''.
: [[Kilo]] means one thousand so there are 1,000 [[Second]]s in a [[kilosecond]].
