Needs to be done only in kernel mode otherwise, a job could set the clock back to increase its processor time slice (among other things)

Instructions that let you modify system software Instructions that let you gain priority or privilege not appropriate for your user account.
Why is apparent solar time not used to measure on a clock?
Because, when using "apparent solar time", the length of a "solar day" varies slightly during the year. (This is because the Earth's orbit isn't exactly circular and the Earth's axis is tilted.) "Clock time" is based on an average (or "mean") of these day lengths, called the "mean solar day". So clocks use "mean solar time". (By coincidence, on the date the question was answered (14th April) "apparent solar time" and 'clock' time are synchronised.) There's another reason for apparent solar time being different from clock time. "Clock time" uses time zones. So, over a wide area, the time on a clock equals the "mean solar time" at a particular, defining, longitude.
