A/C breaker tripping

I had to replace my circuit breaker last year, I think. At the time I bought a spare. Well the breaker just tripped again. It wouldn't reset. I went to replace it and then it reset so I tried it again. After about 3 or 4 minutes the same thing happened. Oh, by the way, it is over 90 here today.
Anyway, is it normal for the breakers to go so fast when they are stressed near the limit whenever used?
I have the spare installed and it is working so far - up to 5 or 6 minutes now!!! ha ha
Oh, I have a surge protecter installed and the AC pulls 15 amps (or 16?) continuously when it is hot outside and the sun is baking down on the roof. Doesn't use so much when out of the direct sun, such as evenings (even with a temp of 100).
Any advice would be helpful!
Oooo - up to 8 minutes!
