It does expect the time in second, but it doesn't have anything todo with the 
last update. You just tell ODE to calculate a new state that is based on the 
previous state after a certain amount of time. But passing the time in 
seconds sinds the last update is a good way to keep ODE running at the same 
speed with as many updates per second as possible. If you would supply a 
constant step then the physics will run faster on a fast comp then on a slow 
comp.
