1 minute = 60 seconds 1 degree = 60 minutes = 3,600 seconds
That's like asking "How many inches are in a length ?". Longitude is an angle on the Earth's surface, so it's only fitting and proper that it should be described in angle units. If the angle units are degrees, then each degree can be cut into 60 minutes, and each minute can be cut into 60 seconds. So 1 degree = 3,600 seconds.
Seconds are units so the question cannot be sensibly answered. Seconds are both units of time (one sixtieth of a minute) and units of angle (one sixtieth of minute) Seconds of time would be measured using an accurate clock like a stopwatch.
As there are 60 seconds in a minute, there are 1/60th of a minute in one second.
