Question 

In Jan 2026, President Trump threatened to annex Greenland and make it a US territory. This is currently governed by Denmark. This large mass of land is situated north-west of Canada and lies between the North American continent and the European continent. Geographically, it is situated between

59 degrees North - 83 degrees North

11 degrees West - 74 degrees West

How can we determine the area of Greenland in square meters?

Answer 

To determine the area of Greenland according to given geographical coordinates,  it involves complex geographical calculation.

According to web,

Area of Greenland is 2,166,086 square kilometers.

To convert this to square meters, we multiply by 1,000,000

Because  1 km  = 1,000,000 square meters 

Bur 1 km = 1000 meters 

We wanr square meter 

==>>  1 km =  1000*1000=1000000 square meter.

According to this,

Area in square meters   =  2,166,086   *   1000000

==>>  2166086000000 square meter 

==>>  2.17 trillion square meter.

Area of Greenland is 2.17  trillion square meter   !!!!

Why can't we eat grass and survive ??

 Could humans really eat grass like cattle  ??

Grass might look harmless, but human bodies are not designed to digest it.

Grass provides little to no nutrients value unlike fruits and vegetables.

The reason lies in the structure of grass.

Grass is made up of tough compounds.  

While the human gut can handle small amount of cellulose found in vegetables, grass contain it in much higher concentration.

Grass eating animals have multiple stomach chambers to digest.

Humans have single stomach and teeth which are not adapted to chew grass.

If swallowed, grass remains indigestible and can lead to stomach discomfort.

Why there are no green coloured stars ??

 Stars emit light because they are hot.

Stars radiate heat away as light and their apparent colour depends on their temperature.

Relatively cool stars emit red light, much hotter stars glow in blue.

As stars get hotter, their colour shifts from red to orange.  As temperature rises even higher, our eyes start to interpret them as blue or white..

There is no temperature where our eyes can interpret as green   !!!

Bheja Fry question

Question 

Me and my friend entered the parking lot at 11.30 am and came out at 3.45 pm.

Charges were Rs 40 for the first hour and Rs 25 for every hour thereafter.

How much money did I pay   ????

Answer 

First we will look at the total time and charged money.

I entered parking lot at 11.30 am

For first hour, charge is Rs 40

 ==>> From 11.30 am to 12.30 pm     

           Rs 40

==>>  From 12.30 pm to 1.30 pm

          Rs 25

           Total money =  40  +  25

==>>  Rs  65

From 1.30 pm to 2.30 pm

            Rs 25

            Total money =  65 +  25

==>>    Rs   90

From 2.30 pm to 3.30 pm

            Rs 25

            Total money =  90  +  25   

==>>     Rs   115

      

Now I left at 3.45  pm

But I have to pay the money as if I have spend one more hour, though I spent extra 15 minutes.

Since it is the part of next hour, it is often rounded up  !!!

            Rs 25

             Total money =  115  +  25

==>>  Rs   140

So, I have spent Rs  140  !!!

Why did humans lost their hair or fur on body ???

 Unlike other animals, humans are evolved to have a lot more sweat glands.

Instead of panting and hiding in the shade, our ancestors could cool down by sweating.

But for sweating to work well, body needed less hair to trap the heat and moisture.

This change led to a new way of hunting.  Here humans chase animals over long distances until the prey is collapsed from exhaustion in the heat.

By losing their fur, early humans gained an advantage. With less hair, they could effectively control their body temperature and had greater stamina.

In the hot climates, being less hairy isn't a drawback but it is a survival skill.

Why do owls sleep during the day ??

 Owls are nocturnal creatures.  They are naturally active during night and rest during day.

Owls hunt at night because their eyes are adapted to low light vision.

By hunting at night ,  owls face less competition from other predators.

Daytime sleep helps owls to conserve energy.

During the day, many predators are active.  Owls stay hidden.

Owl's daytime sleep is a part of their survival strategy.

Why doesn't stomach acid burns through our stomach ??

 If we are about to get an acid reflux, we feel a burning sensation when acid from stomach escapes into mouth.

This means stomach acid is harsh enough to irritate the inside of our throat. 

Why doesn't stomach acid burns through stomach ??

Stomach produces gastric juice to aid digestion. The main component of this gastric juice is hydrochloric acid.

It is strong enough to dissolve metal  !!!

Without protection, this strong acid would quickly begin to eat into stomach wall first forming painful ulcers before ultimately burning a hole.

However, cells that line inside of stomach called epithelium produces a very thick, sticky layer of mucus  which is alkaline and buffers the strong acid.

This layer is continuously renewed.

But when this layer is damaged, problems start.  Small breaks can allow acid to penetrate into mucus layer which can lead to inflammation and ulcers.

Avoiding acidic and spicy food and lifestyle changes help to relieve the suffering.

Bheja Fry question

 Question 

Ramesh Rao working in a company got a salary increment of 10% for good performance in his job.

After 2 months, company realized that increment was for another employee Ramesh R, and not Ramesh Rao.

An instruction was given to accounts department to reduce the salary of Ramesh Rao by 10% and increase the salary of Ramesh. R. By 10%

From next month, Ramesh Rao started getting a  salary lesser than what he was getting prior to his promotion.

How did this happen and what is the %ge decrease in salary??

Answer 

Let's assume Ramesh Rao's original salary was 100 Rs.

After 10% increment, salary  =  100 +  10% of 100

                                                          = 100  +  10

                                                           = 110 Rs

Then  10% decrease on 110 Rupees.

==>>   Decrease  =  10% of 110

==>>   Decrease  =  11 Rs

Ramesh Rao's new salary  =  110  -  11

  ==>>   New salary  =  99  Rs

Percentage decrease =  ( 100 -  99 )  /100

     ==>>     1%    !!!

Why is there a hole in middle of medu vada ??

 Medu vada is usually thicker in shape.

We can make vada without a hole at the middle  !!!

But at that time, only the outer part of vada gets cooked.  Not the inner part.

By making a hole in the dough and then frying in hot oil makes both the sides to get cooked uniformly and it gets crispy.

Surface area of medu vada increases by making a hole at the middle.  This makes vada to stand steady when frying.

Extra oil which is not needed will flow out easily thereby making the vada smoother and crispy.

Why dogs often choose to sleep near entry points ??

 Dogs are instinctively wired to monitor entry and exit points of their environment.

This bbehaviour traces back to their ancestors who positioned themselves at dens entrances to detect the threats, protect the group and control access to resources. 

Sleeping near doors allows dogs to stay alert to sounds, movements and changes in their surroundings.

Oceans on Enceladus are highly alkaline

Enceladus is one of the satellites of planet Saturn.

 Plumes that emanated from Enceladus' south pole regions , are discharged from geysers.

The plumes are having water vapors,, molecular hydrogen, organic hydrocarbons and molecules of methane, ethane , oxygen and nitrogen.

pH levels of subsurface liquid water ocean is based on phosphate levels in ice grains discharged from Enceladus' plumes..

Researchers estimated that Enceladus' ocean has pH between 10.1 to 11.6 making it highly alkaline.

The carbon dioxide degassing within Enceladus' ocean could increase the pH value when it is discharged via the plumes.

Why Greenland looks bigger on the map than really it is ??

 After annexing Venezuela, now Trump wants to get hold of Greenland  !!!

He said he was open to military actions to occupy this Arctic region from Denmark.

While Greenland dominates political discussions, its visual size on maps is quite misleading.

At first glance, Greenland appears as large as entire continent of Africa  on many world maps   !!!

 In reality, Greenland is 14 times smaller than Africa....

Regions close to poles, like Greenland, Antarctica and Russia are heavily sstretched.

Farther a place is from equator, larger it appears on map  !!!

It is like wrapping a flat paper around a round balloon.  To make it to fit, the edges must be wrinkled or stretched.

But Greenland is the world's largest island   !!!!

Why do pressure cookers explode ??

 Despite advancements in safety mechanisms, pressure cooker explosions can still happen.

Here are the main reasons  ----

1.  Over heating 

                       When a pressure cooker is exposed to continuous high heating especially without sufficient liquid inside it,

                        It will cause extreme pressure build up, damaging internal components.

2.  Low water levels

                   We know that pressure cooker  works using steam.  Water is required to create steam.

                     If the water level is too low, it leads to dry heating, over heating and unsafe pressure spikes.

3.  Overfilling the cooker

                    Filling the cooker, beyond the recommended limit,leaves less space for steam to expand.

                     This restricts pressure control and can cause clogging.

4.  Opening the cooker too soon

                   Opening the cooker lid before the pressure is fully released is one of the main causes for explosion.

                    It results in rapid and violent escape of steam.

5. Faulty or worn out components 

Endangered historic sites around the world

What causes that growling sound in the stomach ??

 If the stomach growls after having meal, it is a good sign !!!

Once food reaches the stomach and small intestine, persists waves helps to churn and push the food forward, mixing it with digestive juices.

This process produces natural noises as gases and liquids move around.  If we eat more air when swallowing the food, we can notice it more  !!!

When we think or smell food, we can hear these noises.  This is because our brain releases hunger hormone , which stimulates  stomach and intestine to contract.

We hear growling noises little louder at night just because the environment is quiet   !!!

Stomach growling is nothing to worry about unless one has excessive gas, persistent stomach pain or blood in stools.
