Testing how brain works.....

Today I have come with a question which is based on the mechanism of work of our brain. I got this idea when doing internet. I have simplified the situation in my own words.


QUESTION -----

It takes 1 and 1/2 hour to travel from udupi to Mangalore by road . ( time is calculated taking into account of traveling on a pot hole ridden road and also of traffic jam ). But it takes just 90 minutes to travel from Mangalore to udupi. ( here we are not taking any short cuts . Same pot hole ridden road with traffic jam and traveling in the same speed ).


HOW IS IT POSSIBLE ????

1 and 1/2 hour and 90 minutes , both are same. !!!!

They are just two different units of the same time.
Our mind is pre occupied with the thought that hour is very much bigger than the minute . Actually they are same.  Just varies in the representation.
