360 Degrees

Ash Asked:

Why are there 360 degrees in a circle?


Dear Ash,

At the beginning of the invention of the wheel, they started with a triangle, then they added another corner and produced a square, then they added another corner and produced a pentagon, that went on until they produced a shape with 359 sides (Trihectapentacontakaiennea), then they put on another corner and it came out as a circle and they got the wheel, so a circle has 360 corners aka 360 degrees.

    What is so delicate that saying its name breaks it?

  2. In Electricity, Do electrons move from one group of atoms that have to many to a group that has to few OR is it a charge that flows thru the circuit without "physical" movement? btw... We don't' know is an acceptable if disappointing answer..:)
