Question 1: In Hinduism, who is the god of destruction and transformation?

Shiva is one of the principal deities of Hinduism, known as "The Destroyer" within the Trimurti, the Hindu trinity that includes Brahma and Vishnu. In Shaivism tradition, Shiva is the Supreme being who creates, protects, and transforms the universe.


Question 2: What is the most widely practiced religion in the world?

Christianity is practiced by over 2 billion people worldwide, making it the world's largest religion. It encompasses many different denominations and traditions that believe in Jesus Christ as the Son of God and savior of humanity.


Question 3: When referring to crops, what does the term "cash crop" mean?

A cash crop is one that farmers grow to sell directly on the market, rather than using it to feed their livestock or to feed their families. Examples include cotton, tobacco, and coffee.



Question 4: Which actor played the character of Han Solo in the original Star Wars trilogy?

Harrison Ford portrayed the iconic role of Han Solo, the daring smuggler and pilot of the Millennium Falcon, in the original Star Wars trilogy (Episodes IV-VI) released between 1977 and 1983. His performance helped establish Han Solo as one of the most beloved characters in the Star Wars universe.


Question 5: Why can't Superman see through lead?

In the Superman comics, Superman cannot see through lead because of a specific weakness he has - a limitation set by the writers to his otherwise extensive powers which, among others, include X-ray vision.


Question 6: How many time zones does Russia have?

Russia is the world's largest country by land area, spanning across 11 time zones from its European part to the easternmost regions in Asia. This vast expanse covers a wide range of geographical and cultural diversity.


Question 7: Where do most hurricanes that impact the United States originate?

Most hurricanes that make landfall in the United States originate in the Atlantic Ocean. They typically form off the coast of Africa and are steered westward by trade winds, often strengthening as they cross the warm waters of the Atlantic.



Question 8: Where did the croissant originate?

Although often associated with France, the croissant actually originated in Austria. It was created in 1683 to celebrate the defeat of the Ottoman Turks by Austrian forces in the siege of Vienna. The shape is said to represent the crescent moon, a symbol of the Ottoman Empire.


Question 9: Who is known for the law of universal gravitation?

Sir Isaac Newton's law of universal gravitation was first published in his work "Philosophiæ Naturalis Principia Mathematica" in 1687. Newton's law states that every point mass attracts every other point mass by a force acting along the line intersecting both points, proportional to the product of their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them.
