SDC Trivia Game #711 - 06/05/2025

Question 1: What is the term for the main song in a musical that expresses the main theme or a character's primary desires?

In musical theatre, the "I Want" song is a number in which the main character sings about their primary desire or goal. It often occurs early in the first act and sets up the central conflict or journey of the character. Famous examples include "Part of Your World" from The Little Mermaid and "Wouldn't It Be Loverly" from My Fair Lady.


Question 2: When is the holy month of Ramadan observed by Muslims?

The exact dates of Ramadan change each year as the Islamic calendar is lunar-based. Ramadan is a time of spiritual reflection, fasting, and prayer for Muslims around the world.


Question 3: Where was famous playwright William Shakespeare born?

William Shakespeare was born in Stratford-upon-Avon in 1564. Often referred to as England's national poet and the "Bard of Avon," his extant works include some 39 plays, 154 sonnets, and two long narrative poems.



Question 4: What is the densest known object in the universe?

Neutron stars are incredibly dense, as a result of their mass being packed into an extremely small volume, leading to a density that's about 400 million times higher than that of Earth. Black holes, while incredibly dense, are not defined as an object in the context of density due to their singularity and event horizon characteristics.


Question 5: Who was the first woman to win a Nobel Prize?

Marie Curie received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1903, along with her husband Pierre Curie and Henri Becquerel, for their work on radioactivity. Later, in 1911, she won a second Nobel Prize, this time in Chemistry, for her discovery of the elements radium and polonium. She remains the only person to have won Nobel Prizes in two different scientific fields.


Question 6: The Parthenon in Greece was dedicated to which Greek Goddess?

The Parthenon in Athens was built as a temple to honour the Greek goddess of war, wisdom, arts, and literature: Athena.


Question 7: If someone has "myopia," what eye condition do they have?

Myopia, also known as nearsightedness, is a common eye condition where close objects appear clear but distant objects appear blurry. It occurs when the eye's shape is too long, causing light rays to focus in front of the retina rather than on it.



Question 8: What is the traditional number of Wonders of the Ancient World?

The Seven Wonders of the Ancient World is a list of remarkable constructions of classical antiquity. They were impressive feats of construction and engineering during their times and included the Great Pyramid of Giza, the Hanging Gardens of Babylon, the Statue of Zeus at Olympia, the Temple of Artemis at Ephesus, the Mausoleum at Halicarnassus, the Colossus of Rhodes, and the Lighthouse of Alexandria.


Question 9: What legendary creature is said to live in the Himalayan mountains?

The Yeti, also known as the Abominable Snowman, is a mythical ape-like creature said to inhabit the Himalayan region of Nepal, India and Tibet. Despite many alleged sightings and footprints, its existence remains unproven.


Question 10: Where was the famous composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart born?

Mozart was born on January 27, 1756, in Salzburg, which at the time was part of the Holy Roman Empire. Salzburg is now a city in Austria, known for its baroque architecture and as the birthplace of one of the most influential composers of the Classical period.

Q4, Black holes are so gravity strong light cannot escape.⚫
a neutron star in it's final collapse becomes a black hole,
That would make it the densest object in the universe.
That is what we were taught at science lessons in third& fourth year Tech high school.🎓
Anyway happy with 80%😼😼

I almost chose Black Hole but at the last moment, thought that was too obvious…so went with Neutron Star…
