there are 60 secs in a minute
60 minutes in an hour and
24 hours in a day
therefore,one day
=60*60*24 secs

in a leap year there are 366 days

therefore,there are
(60*60*24*366)=31,622,400
secs in a leap year

in a normal year there are 365 days

therefore,there are
(60*60*24*365)=31,536,000 secs
in an normal year

i hope that this helps

If you mean one year is the amount of time that it takes for the earth to complete one revolution around the sun, then I would imagine that there is no fixed amount of seconds. There are so many tiny variables affecting such a massive revolution that each lap is likely to vary by a few seconds on any given "lap".
So the answer = Depends on the year / lap in question.

Actually depending on what you mean by a year there could be a few answers

A calendar year is 365days a year in terms of earths orbit its 365.24 (no that's not a typo) days so the answer would be

60x60x24x365.24=31556736

The reason I know its 365.24 is that every 100 years regardless if its a year multiple of 4 there is a leap year

365.25 x 24 x 60 x 60 = 31,557,600 seconds

Well, if by a year you mean the length of time it takes for the Earth to make one revolution around the sun, then it is 31,556,940 seconds, give or take a few.

I think you'll find the answer is actually 31557600 considering there is technically 365.25 days in a year...
