Kids are always kids !!!

 My nephew Aniruddha was preparing for his English grammar exam.

I was given the responsibility of checking his preparedness for the upcoming exam  !!!

So I was asking him some simple questions.

As he is still in his primary school , I asked him this question.

Me  :   Tell me the difference between flour and floor  ??!!

Aniruddha  :  There is no difference.  Both are same....

Then I wrote both the words in a piece of paper and asked him to tell the answer now.

Aniruddha :    (   thinking deeply  ,  went silent  )

Me  :   Tell me the answer  , you are taking too much time...... 

Aniruddha  :  (  Looking at the paper   )

                       :     SPELLING OF BOTH ARE  DIFFERENT   ....!!!!!

Why hailstorm rain is more in premonsoon period ??

 Recently Bangalore had received a heavy hailstorm rain.  People could pick hail stones which where falling on ground  !!!

In North Karnataka region also, there were reports of hailstorm showers.

Only in Udupi, we haven't got a single drop of rain till now  !!!

Here neither hailstorm nor ordinary storm.

When there is intense ground heating and high atmospheric instability which are common during premonsoon months of March to May, hailstorm rains occur.

The peak ground temperature of 35 to 44 degree Celsius causes the warm air near the surface to  rise rapidly.

This rising hot air creates violent currents which are strong enough to carry the water droplets into freezing levels of atmosphere.

Here water droplets freeze into ice pallets.  These are hailstones.

During premonsoon, middle and upper layer of atmosphere are relatively dry.

When these hailstones fall through this dry air,  this air keeps the stone cold and make them to reach ground without melting completely.

During actual monsoon, air is fully saturated with moisture.  This makes the atmosphere more stable and prevents the current formation.

Hence we don't get hailstorm rains during monsoon.

Which is the largest planet ??

 This question was asked on Koun Banega Karodpati program.

Question 

Which planet is the largest among inner planets of solar system ??

1.  Mercury 

2.  Venus 

3.   Earth 

4.   Mars

Answer 

First we will discuss about inner solar system.

This region is closest to Sun and comprises of 4 terrestrial planets and asteroid belt.

Terrestrial planets are closest to Sun and known for their solid, rocky and dense composition.

They have few (  Earth =  1 moon and Mars =  2  moons  ) moons or none  (  Mercury and Venus  )

Terrestrial planets are     Mercury       Venus         Earth       Mars 

After the terrestrial planets, it also contains asteroid belt which is located between the orbits of Mars and Jupiter.

This asteroid belt is the boundary between inner and outer solar systems.

Out of the 4 terrestrial planets,

                   EARTH         is the largest one.

Why don't we get bubbles when heating water on microwave ??

 Let's look at the normal boiling.

When we heat water on a pot, the heat is applied from bottom, creating a circulation of water and helping bubbles to form and rise.

This is called CONVECTION......

But in microwave, water is heated more uniformly throughout.  So it can actually get to a temperature above boiling without forming bubbles   !!!!

This is called   SUPER HEATING.

Thats why bubbles don't get formed when heating water on microwave  !!!

Why should we add pinch of salt to curd ??

 Many people like  to eat curd with sugar.

But it is advised to have  curd with pinch of salt.

Here are the reasons ------

1.  Boost digestion and gut health 

2.  Balances electrolytes in summer 

3.  Enhances nutrient absorption 

4.  Adds a natural flavor 

Why do Indian trains come in different colours ???

 The different colours of train coaches are not chosen at random  !!!

They are the part of well thought system that helps passengers and railway staff to identify the type and function of each coach.

Such different colours are  -----

1.  Blue color 

                 Blue colour is the most common colour seen on Indian railway coaches.  It was replaced by earlier maroon colour as part of modernization.

                 Blue colour is used for sleeper and general coaches.

2.  Maroon colour 

                  Maroon colour was widely in use before replaced by blue  !!!  It is still used in some old trains.

3.  Green colour 

                      Green coaches are typically for garib rath trains  !!!  Garib rath trains offer affordable air conditioned travel.

4.  Red or rust colour 

                       These coaches usually indicate air conditioned classes such as AC chair car or AC sleeper.

5.  Yellow stripes and markings 

                       These feature special purpose coaches such as brake vans, parcel vans or coaches with specific operational roles.      

Why watermelon fruit must not be eaten as soon the lunch is over ??

 Few days back, there was a news report :  4 people died after eating watermelon fruit after having biryani  !!!

I wondered fruits are good for health.  But in this case, fruit itself has become the reason for death  !!!

But only watermelon shouldn't be eaten as soon after having lunch.  

WHY    ???

Having water melon fruit after lunch slows down digestive process.

I will explain how  ??

Watermelon gets digested quickly just after 20 to 30 minutes after consuming it.

But it takes nearly 2 to 3 hours for the lunch to get digest.

These digested and undigested food overlap with each other resulting in producing gas in the stomach.

To digest food we have eaten , stomach produces hydrochloric acid.  But having watermelon which is high in water content slows down digesting process.

Because of this, body is unable to absorb the nutrients from food.  

In simple terms, having watermelon soon after lunch results in production of gas and poisonous stuff.

Its not that we must not have watermelon fruit  !!!

But one hour before food or in empty stomach, watermelon fruit can be eaten.

Drinking water as soon as eating watermelon results in dilution of digestive enzymes.  Better to have the water after 20-30 minutes after consuming water melon. 

Why there is a small pocket above right side pocket in jeans pant ??

 Many of us have observed the small picket above the right side pocket of a jeans pant.

Many of us don't know why it is there   ??!!

I thought it is meant to put coins as they are difficult to hold  !!!

Real reason -----

The jeans themselves were designed by Levi Strauss and Jacob Davis in late 19th century.

They were originally made  for miners and working men, so they were really durable.

When the jeans were invented, there were no wrist watches.  People used to carry pocket watch.

When miners are working, there was no safe place to keep them. 

So, this little pocket was designed to keep these pocket watches safely.

Though nowadays we don't use pocket watches,  that tradition is still going on  !!!!

Bheja Fry Question

 This question I found on internet.

Question 

If             1     +       1         =       8

               2       +        2        =        64

Then       3        +      3         =         ????

Answer 

These type of questions follow a certain format.

Now  we know  1   +   1    =  2

But here it is given as  1  +  1  =   8

                             ==>>       1  +  1  =   2^3

Now       2   +  2  =  4

But given    2  +  2   =   64

       ==>>       2  + 2    =   4^3

Now question is  3  +  3  = ??

We know   3  +  3  =  6

Following the same logic,  3 + 3 =  6

                  ==>>    3  +  3  =  6 ^3  =  216    !!!!

Place where the Sun rises twice a day ...

 Everyone knows that Sun rises in the East only once,...

But in this village,  Sun rises twice a day   .....!!!!

Rimetea village in Romania sees the Sun rises twice a day.

It is not a myth but a natural phenomenon.

This happens due to Rimetea's unique terrain and mountain alignment.

This natural phenomenon occurs mainly during Summer specially in the month of July.

The reasons are   ----

1.  Rimetea sits at the foot of a  tall limestone massif.

2.   At dawn, Sun appears above the horizon for a short time.

3.  As the Sun moves, it disapears behind the mountains.

4.  A few minutes later, Sun reappears creating the illusion of second sunrise.

These mountains temporarily block sunlight despite the Sun being above the horizon..

Rare facts about cat whiskers

1.   Whiskers are super sensitive sensors 

                        Cat whiskers may look like simple facial hair.  Beyond making cats adorable ,   whiskers are deeply connected to their senses.   ,  

They are deeply embedded in cat's body and connected to nerve endings.  

With this ,  cats can sense obstacles and movements around them.

2.  Whiskers show mood changes 

                   When the cat is relaxed ,  whiskers usually rest to the side.   

                    If the whiskers are pushed forward ,  cats may be curious, playful or little aggressive.

                   When pulled back tightly against the face ,  it is the sign of fear or stress.

3.  Whiskers help measure spaces 

                     Typically ,  cat's whiskers are about the same width as its body. This allow them to gauge doorways, tunnels and gaps.  This prevents them from getting stuck  !!!

4.  Whiskers help in hunting 

5. Whiskers exist on other body parts too !!!

                       Cats also have whiskers above their eyes,  on their chin  and even on back of their front legs.

6.  Whiskers should never be cut  !!!

Bheja Fry question

 I have listed down 5 numbers.

Question    Find the odd man out

48          156          183           622           435

Answer 

This Bheja Fry question is little different from the other questions I had posted earlier  !!!!

Take a good look at the given 5  numbers.

Now we start adding the digits of the numbers 

48  =    4  +  8  =  12

156  =  1 + 5  + 6  =  12

183  =  1  +  8  +  3  =  12

622  =   6  + 2 +  2  =  10

435  =  4  +  3  +  5  =  12

By looking at the above calculations, we can finally say that sum of the digits of 4 numbers are  12.

Sum of digits of only one number is  10 !!!

That number is            622

This number is the odd man out  !!!!

                 Red stripes highlights AC first class or executive class.

Why do humans afraid of darkness ??

 It mostly comes down to revolutionary survival.

For our ancestors, darkness meant being at a massive disadvantage against nocturnal predators.

Since we lack night vision, our brains developed a fear response to keep us away from potential danger we could not see.

Psychologically, it is more about fear of unknown than the absence of light itself.

When the eyes can not provide clear information,  the brain tends to trigger the "  fight or flight ' response !!!!

Baking soda while cooking veggies

 If we add a pinch of baking soda when cooking vegetables, they get cooked easily.

Baking soda softens vegetable cell walls through a chemical process called alkalization.

Plant cells are bound by pectin.  It acts like cement between cell walls.

 Mixing baking soda to the water in which vegetables are supposed to cook, baking soda raises the water pH, thus making it alkaline.

In alkaline environment, pectin bonds breaks down quickly. This further reduces the rigidity of tough and fibrous vegetables.

This allows the boiling water to penetrate into vegetable, significantly reducing cooking time.

Places where magnetic compass stop working....

 Magnetic compasses always point towards Earth's magnetic north.

But there are some places where magnetic compasses stop working.

They are -----

1.  Earth's magnetic poles 

                At magnetic poles, Earth's magnetic field runs almost vertically instead of horizontally.

               This makes compass needles to dip downwards.  It often spins or points randomly.

2.  Bermuda triangle 

               In this place in Atlantic ocean, compass fails.   Here we can observe unusual magnetic variations.

3.  Kursk's magnetic anomoly, Russia 

                In this region, large amounts of iron ore deposits are found.  This creates strong local magnetic pull which overpower Earth's natural field.

4.   South Atlantic anomoly 

           In this region, Earth's magnetic field weakens.  It also affects satellites and electronic signals.

5. Kerguelen plateau 

             This underwater volcanic plateau has unusual magnetic properties which distrubs Earth 's magnetic Field.

Why is America called United States ??

 The name United States of America is commonly shortened to USA.

Before independence, the land now known as United States consisted of 13 British colonies along eastern cows of North America.

These colonies differ in culture, economy and governance, yet they shared growing dissatisfaction with British rule.

When they decided to break away from British crown, they faced a crucial question  ---  "  How could seperate colonies unite, while still maintaining their individual identities ??  "

After declaring independence in 1776, the former colonies  merge into a single centralized territory.

Instead they formed a union of individual states, each with its own government and law, while agreeing to be governed collectively on national matters such as defence and trade.

So,  America is called USA because the name accurately describes the nation  :  A Union of individual states located in America   !!!

Bheja Fry question

 This Bheja Fry question don't require mathematical knowledge  !!!

Question 

If          9999  =  4

             8888  =   8

             6688   =  6

Then     4466  =  ??

Answer 

Please don't try to put mathematical formulae over here !!!

Just look at the number 9.

It is having one circle in the upper part  !!!

In the first row, we have 9999.  So,    4 circles.

Now look at the number 8.

It is having two circles on both upper and lower parts   !!!!

In the second row,  we have 8888.. So,   8  circles.

Same way,

In the third row, we have  6688.

Total number of circles in the number 6688 is     6.

On the same logic, 

In the fourth row we have   4466.

Number  4  don't have circles, it has only empty  space !!!

But number 6 has one circle in it.

Number    4466 has   2     6s.

Total number of circles       only     2     !!!!

Hence  9999        4

              8888         8

                6688            6

                4466            2

Devil comet

 Devil comet is a large, periodic comet that orbits the Sun every 71 years.

It got its name from its appearance !!!

This comet look like a devil as it has horns or forked tail .

This appearance is because of outbursts of gas and dust which forms a horn like structure.

These horns are not physical structurs.  They are the result of comet's cryovolcanic outbursts. ( cold volcano )

The ejected gas and dust form a distinctive horse-shoe or horned shape in its nucleus.

Which country's flag ???

 This question was asked on Koun Banega Karodpati program.

Question 

Stars on which country's flag shows the sky of 15 November 1889 ,  day on which it became republic  ??

1.  Brazil 

2.  Australia 

3.  United States of America

Both Australia and New Zealand flags are somewhat similar having Union Jack at the upper left corner and having some stars in the dark blue background.

The dark blue background can not be taken as sky  !!!

Australia and New Zealand ruled out !!!

I have seen the photo of USA flag. It is fully covered with stripes.

United States of America ruled out  !!!

Now we will look at Brazilian flag..... 

Brazilian flag is quite unique !!

It has a distinctive colour combo of green, yellow and blue. It also has celestial sphere in the center.

The blue sphere actually depicts the night sky over Brazil on 15 November 1889 when the country became republic   !!!

It also shows stars arranged at that time on sky  !!!!

Why do we add Garam Masala at the end ???

 Garam Masala is a spice blend.

It is prepared with cinnamon, cardamom, cumin, cloves, coriander and black pepper.

It increases the flavour profile of any dish and it also has digestive benefits.

Why do we add Garam Masala at the end ??

Garam Masala must be added to the dish at the end only. 

If we add Garam Masala early in the recipe, the spice blend gets exposed to high heat for a longer time.

This can lead to the essential oils which make the dish aromatic and tasteful, resulting in a muted overall flavour.

But when we add Garam Masala at the final stage, its aromatic potential and fresh, vibrant taste is preserved.

This trick works very well with vegetarian dishes.

In some meat based dishes, Garam Masala is added little earlier in the cooking process.

Why dogs circle before pooping ???

 Some of the possible reasons are    ------

1.  Scent marking 

                        Circling and pooping may be a way for dogs to communicate with other dogs through scent marking.

                        This is one of the ways canines silently exchange information about their health, territory and presence.

2.  Preparing the area

                        Circling may help dogs to find the right spot to poop, taking into factors like texture, smell and visibility.

3.  Instinctual heritage 

                        Circling before pooping is an instinctual behavior from wild ancestors, who needed to prepare a safe and suitable area to defecation and to ensure  the area is clear of threats, insects and obstacles.
