Yeeessss this is the right section. I'm making a thread for when I get bored, when the Forums are quiet. I can post questions in here and give points and whatnot. I know this is a done thing. But don't you think its fun? I'll have to give credit to BVoO and Pixie, as they have done threads like this before.
Points go as follows: Trick questions - One point for the right answer. Two points for an answer I find extremely clever (If possible). Minus a point for a stupid answer. First person to post the right answer gets the point. Trivia- One point for the right answer. One point for an answer I find extremely clever (If possible). Minus a point for a stupid answer. First person to post the right answer gets the point.
Rules; 1. You can only post one answer for each question, unless I tell you otherwise. 2. No flaming, trolling, spamming etc. 3. If you don't like the game or the thread, don't post!
Here is the trick question: A man is walking outside in the rain. He does not have an umbrella even though it is pouring outside. Nothing is covering his head, yet his hair doesn't get wet. How is this possible?
Here is the trivia question: What singer for a 70's British rock quartet changed his name from Frederick Bulsara?
But the question has been answered... what is their to be clever about?
I could say that light travels at 186.282 miles per second (300,000km per second) in a vacuum. Though through diamonds it only goes 80,000 miles per second (only >.>. In sodium cooled to -272 degrees centigrade it traves at 38 mph and in a bose-einstein condensate of rubidium it stops completely. Not relevant but hey its almost intersting >.>
I thought it had (?) As far as I know a group at the University of Colorado made a BEC of rubidium in 1995 and won the nobel prize for physics for it in 2001. Then in 2000 at Harvard university a team used a BEC of R to stop light completely.
