students , any idea ?!

Answer 1

any help ?

Answer 2

What is the largest part of the brain? :P

Answer 3

haha idk, tell me
i need answes too lol

Answer 4

Why don't you search on google for "General Quiz" or General Chemistry quiz etc. ?

Answer 5

well , its familiur with student to search on Google to prepare
so i thought if every one here game 1 q it would be more intrested :)

Answer 6

Oh! Well, I agree, students are just too good in searching on net for questions and answers :)

Unique questions - May be, others could help. I personally think, that there are many quest. possible but most of those can be easily found on net. Internet is a huge database... Though, I hope, you get some unique and funny questions from other uses :)

Answer 11

What level of Maths are you looking for?

There might be plenty to look over on chemwiki and other sites in that group
http://chemwiki.ucdavis.edu/
I guess you could also look at practice AP tests on different subjects and (not stealing the questions themselves), get ideas for what you might be looking for in your own questions.

Answer 12

:) Good to hear, I found one for chemistry too : http://www.mhpracticeplus.com/mcat_review/MCAT_Review_Silberberg.pdf

Answer 13

well its humm like for fun comatition , im asked to present it
so i wanna general question not advance

Answer 14

I guess one could argue that even higher Maths questions can be set in a fun tone. :P
I can quickly recall the detective example I had for differential eqns. But between Algebra - Calculus would be my best guess here. :)

Answer 15

well u give me an example ?

Answer 16

Of all the elements on the periodic table only 2 are liquids at room temperature. What are they?
Bromine and Mercury

Answer 17

cool but isnt it so easy :P

Answer 18

oh geez - well I didn't know exactly what your restrictions are.
Let's see if I can come up with something else (maybe something abut Grand Unified Theories? LOL)

Answer 19

I guess I'm thinking in terms of trivia questions. Do you want something more like "a mass of 5 kg collides at 45° with a 3.2 kg mass. Given that the collision is 100% efficient ...) ??

Answer 20

hum im thinking of like general funny information the question u said first is on the list :)
i wanna things like that but i wanna something like more tricky

Answer 21

Here's one I've always liked.
Where was helium first discovered?
The Sun.
It was discovered by spectroscopic analysis.
Here's what dictionary.com says about the origin of the word:
helium
1868, coined from Gk. helios "sun" (see sol), because the element was observed in the solar spectrum during the eclipse of Aug. 18, 1868, by Eng. astronomer Sir Joseph N. Lockyer (1836-1920) and Eng. chemist Sir Edward Frankland (1825-99). It was not actually obtained until 1895.

Answer 33

bbye , have a good slp

Answer 34

Here's a good one - but involves math calculations.
A car travels from city A to city B at 60 miles per hour.
On the return trip the average speed is 30 miles per hour.
What is the average speed of the car for the whole trip?
(Hint: It is NOT 45 miles per hour).

You do not need to know the distance from city A to city B but let's suppose it is 60 miles. So for the outgoing trip, the car travels 60 miles per hour, the distance is 60 miles so this trip takes one hour.
The return trip is also 60 miles but since it only traveled at 30 mph, it took 2 hours.

So the entire trip took 3 hours and the entire trip was 120 miles.
It took 3 hours to travel 120 miles, so in one hour it traveled at 40 miles per hour.

(That is NOT a trick question. It just shows that sometimes mistakes can be made that are NOT just simple arithmetic errors.)
