Firstly it is to do with the shape of the headphones. Inner ear ones are shaped to fit your ears, and external ones are angled so they don't flatten your ears.It's also to do with panning, this when a guitar or vocal track is mixed to move from left to right or right to left during a solo or progression. Also sometimes a guitar or vocal track will be double tracked (recorded twice) and one track might have en effect on it and the other might be clean, then the 2 are panned outwards to both speakers.It might even be a single guitar part that sounds best panned to the left rather than the right.

It depends on what you are listening to, on stereo sound the sound is split into two channels,the left and the right so for the sound to sound correct you should have the earphones in the right ear. You can only really tell though when you have a song that mutes one side and plays the other then swaps over (awful explanation i know).

the actually answer is that the two our ears has different listening powers. The stereo sound is recorded and tuned to the common listening power of each and every guy or woman interior the worldwide. So the headphones are synthetic in same way and are marked left and surprising.

Like the others say, its to do with stereo, Left and Right speakers give different outputs :)

so you hear it as it was recorded in stereo, with right sounds on the right and the left on the left. Not sure it matters though.

There are two reasons:
One is so that you hear it as it was recorded.
The other is so the headphones are on your head in the most comfortable position. Often times if you wear them the opposite way from how they're labelled they don't stay on properly or they feel strange!

because one's telling you left and right one for your right ear and one for your left ear.

It's an intelligence/agility test.
If you can figure L/R properly then you're still OK.
From what? Well that just depends on the circumstances.
