Why only 24 Hrs in a Day?
I was just thinking Who decided that there will only 24 hours in a day? Is there any reason on deciding this number? Why didnt they think of having 25 hours? or why not having any other number in that case? If we had more hours in a day it will give us so much time in a year!!
On the same lines why does a year have 365 days?? Why not 370 days? Does all this have some meaning??

Hi KK,
I am not sure about 24 hrs, however 365 days in a year, i believe, is based on the duration of the earth's revolution round the sun!!

@Karta -
But how did they measure it? did people travel to the universe to find that out?
