Question 11 A famous discovery in question

Instead of focusing on the finding itself which was unanimously regarded as a long sought after breakthrough both scientists and the media got obsessed with who should deserve the credit, whether one, two, four or six people should win the prize. We found that the beautiful discipline of physics was being torn apart by this constant bickering. It was no longer about the science, it was a beauty contest. - Lars Brink, the chairman of the Nobel physics committee.
But since the real hero of the story is the ____ itself, why not take human beings out of the equation altogether? We therefore decided to honor the one thing that really matters in this whole story.

Answer follows

Higgs Boson winning Nobel Prize for Physics. It was passed around the internet till someone realised it was a prank and to stress about how the Nobel Prize has become a beauty contest.

Question 12 Whats the Blank?

Question 15 What was he inhaling?

Richard Holmes, in his book Age of Wonders, describes how young Humphrey Davy went looking for a possible cure for tuberculosis. He tried inhaling different things hoping to improve respiration. Davy would go into a glass chamber saturated with gas, close the door and breathe. He said he experienced inconceivable pleasure when testing one gas.

He discovered it wouldnt cure lung disease but wondered if it could be used as an anaesthetic as it helped reduce his tooth pain.

Answer follows

Nitrous Oxide/ Laughing gas

Question 16 Who is X?
On X's 72nd birthday on March 14, 1951, UPI photographer Arthur Sasse was trying to persuade him to smile for the camera, but having smiled for photographers many times that day, X did something else instead. This photograph became one of the most popular ever taken of X, often used in merchandise depicting him in a lighthearted sense. X enjoyed this photo and requested UPI to give him nine copies for personal use, one of which he signed for a reporter. On June 19, 2009, the original signed photograph was sold at auction for $74,324, a record for an X's picture.

Question 17
What is called a solidus if written as a diagonal line or a vinculum if written as a horizontal line? What are these latin terms which play an important role in mathematics today!

Answer follows

The line between the numerator and denominator in a fraction!

Question 18
When a spinal manipulation is performed, the applied force separates the articular surfaces of a fully encapsulated synovial joint, which in turn creates a reduction in pressure within the joint cavity. In this low-pressure environment, some of the gases that are dissolved in the synovial fluid leave the solution, making a cavity, which rapidly collapses upon itself, resulting in a gas bubble made mainly of carbon dioxide which then goes pop. A commonly felt experience on a day to day basis, what are we talking about?

Answer follows

The clicking sound when joints in the body crack

Question 19

Answer follows

SteamOS

Question 20 X ?
X has been used to demonstrate the second law of thermodynamics. The law describes a process known as entropy, often taken to be a measure of "disorder". After Xs fall from his wall, and the subsequent shattering of his environment, the inability to put him together again is representative of this principle, as it would be very highly unlikely, though not impossible, to return him to his earlier state of lower entropy, as the entropy of an isolated system never decreases.
