Default Decimal Time

Someone was talking about decimal time where the second is shortened by
about 15% allowing 100 secs/minute, 100 minutes/hr, 10 hr/day.

A large number of physical units are based on the second, especially in
electrical engineering. Watts and Coulombs come to mind immediately, how
about frequency and inductors/capacitors. it would screw up everything.

In Physics, how about acceleration?

In mechanics, how about RPM?
