Question 1: What vitamin is produced when human skin is exposed to sunlight?

When the skin is exposed to UVB rays from sunlight, it produces vitamin D, which is important for bone health and immune system function. The amount of vitamin D that your skin makes depends on the time of day, your skin pigmentation, and your location.


Question 2: Who is considered the father of modern philosophy?

René Descartes, a French philosopher and mathematician, is often regarded as the father of modern philosophy for bridging the gap between Scholasticism of the medieval period and the new science of the modern era. His famous phrase, "Cogito, ergo sum" ("I think, therefore I am"), encapsulates his emphasis on the importance of doubt and rational thought.


Question 3: What is the sum of the interior angles of a pentagon?

In a polygon, the sum of the interior angles can be calculated using the formula (n-2) x 180°, where n is the number of sides. In a pentagon, which has 5 sides, the sum would be (5-2) x 180°, which equals 540°.



Question 4: Which legendary figure is known for stealing from the rich to give to the poor?

The earliest known references to Robin Hood appear in 14th century English literature and folklore. Over time, he became a popular folk hero known for robbing the wealthy to help the less fortunate, although his actual historical existence is debated by scholars.


Question 5: When referring to wine, what does "brut" indicate?

In the world of wine, "brut" is a French term used to describe a very dry champagne or sparkling wine. The driest brut wines contain less than 12 grams of sugar per liter.


Question 6: In legal terms, what is the difference between libel and slander?

Both libel and slander are types of defamation, but the main difference is the medium through which the defamatory statement is made. Libel is defamation in written or printed form, while slander is spoken defamation.


Question 7: How many hours are there in a week?

To calculate the number of hours in a week, one multiplies the number of hours in a day (24) by the number of days in a week (7), which equals 168 hours.



Question 8: What year did the Berlin Wall fall, signifying the approaching end of the Cold War?
