Clocks are changed on a specific day to observe Daylight Saving Time (DST), which aims to make better use of daylight during the longer days of summer. By shifting the clock forward in spring and back in fall, the idea is to extend evening daylight, reducing reliance on artificial lighting and potentially saving energy. This practice also aligns with agricultural schedules and recreational activities, allowing for more daylight hours. The specific dates for these changes vary by country and region.
Nov. 7, 2010 clocks will go back one hour.
No, when clocks go back, the time jumps back from 2:00 AM to 1:00 AM, creating an additional hour in the day. There will not be two 1:00 AMs on that specific night.
There is no specific collective noun for clocks, in which case a noun suitable for the situation is used; for example a collection of clocks, a museum of clocks, a display of clocks, etc.
Yes, as time progresses, it will eventually change to day and then back to night as part of the natural cycle of the Earth's rotation.
He got the idea from the war. He also invented the day light savings time!!!!!=)
To save the hours of daylight
April and august
The first clocks were made of various materials such as stone, wood, or metal. These early clocks were often large and operated using mechanisms like water, weights, or springs. Sundials and water clocks were some of the earliest forms of timekeeping devices.

the clocks
The time change typically occurs twice a year in the majority of regions: one in spring when clocks are moved forward by one hour, and then in fall when clocks are moved back by one hour. The exact dates for the time change vary by location and can be confirmed by checking local sources or official announcements for each specific year.
Different countries change their clocks at different times. In some places even within a country. Some countries change the date or day according to local requirements. Then there are countries that do not change their clock time. If you wish to know when a particular country or region makes the alteration then you will need to specify where and what year.
