            The clock has changed our lives a lot.  

Whenever we want to know the time, we simply looks  at the clock.

 

But have you ever thought that why clocks always rotates in clockwise direction? 

 

See there are two types of direction one clockwise and the other anticlockwise.

 

 Yes, these directions are also named after the clock, 

but why does the clock rotate in this direction?  

Why the clock doesn’t rotates  another direction?  

The simple answer is that the clock was invented from sundials.

  Sundials was  invented in  northern hemisphere.  

And in the northern hemisphere the sundials rotates  clockwise.  

Due to this clocks rotates clockwise. 

If  the sundials were invented    the southern hemisphere,

 then today the clock would rotate  in anticlockwise direction.
