Question

When Daylight Saving Time is in effect, clocks "spring forward" one hour in the Spring (Example: 1:00 A.M. becomes 2:00 A.M.) and "fall back" one hour in the Fall (Example: 2:00 A.M. becomes 1:00 A.M.).

A) True
B) False

Answer 1

Daylight Saving Time causes clocks to 'spring forward' and 'fall back' one hour in the Spring and Fall respectively.

Step-by-step explanation:

The statement is true. When Daylight Saving Time is in effect, clocks 'spring forward' one hour in the Spring and 'fall back' one hour in the Fall. This means that 1:00 A.M. becomes 2:00 A.M. in the Spring and 2:00 A.M. becomes 1:00 A.M. in the Fall. The purpose of Daylight Saving Time is to make better use of daylight and extend daylight into the evening hours.
