Time and Again

There are two fuses glued to a concrete floor.

Each fuse will burn for exactly an hour.

You have one box of 100 matches.

1) How many different time intervals would you be able to accurately measure using the fuses and matches you were given?

2) What are the intervals?

3) How would you measure each of the intervals?

(each solution starts with two new fuses.)
