Allround Trivia!

Started by T.M173 pages

I dont know well anything really about this but one origin of the name i have heard is from the old English words weri which means 'to wear' and then 'wolf', this combines to make something like 'wearer of the wolf skin'.

and that is the only thing i know/heard on this subject.

How did the legend of the werewolf came to be? This has multiple answers, post as many as you can...

i was following a story i heard - i asked afew mates of mine if they new anything this one dude (he talks an awful lot told me this story ) ..about this dude Stubbe in Germany ....
who was doing witch craft from when he was a child , or something of that nature, and sold his soul to los diablos or something ? ..
blah blah . villages corned him and he turned into some dude..so they Killed him..

hysterical.....

ooo fell into the trap it is not Iron ❌

that was my first thought to ✅

i dont think anyone is going to get this.

i only posted it to see if someone said Iron 😛

the correct answer is infact Calcium

Calcium is a metal? I thought it was a mineral...

nah its a metal

part of the Alkaline earth metals group ✅

You're right. I looked it up, calcium is present in bones as calcium-carbonate, indeed making it the most common metal in the body.
Nice trick question!

thank you 🙂

u see how much calcium is in the human body ?

I think it is around 40kg

Well, that would be 40 kg of calcium-carbonate then: CaCO3.
So I guess about 60% of that mass is pure calcium, as it is the heavier element. Brings you down to 24 kg. of calcium. (just estamating).

... OK lol

riddle me this then: why do you need auxiliary metals on you to set of metaldetectors as you already carry a shitload of it in your body?

i have no idea. i have never even thought about it 😖

That's ok. The thing is, metal-detectors aim on magnetic properties. In order to be magnetic, a substance must consist out of the same type of metal atoms, as they will then cluster and form magnetism-sensitive 'cells' in the substance.
But as the calcium in your body is part of an molecule that also includes 2 other non-metal elements, it can't get magnetic. So no 'wheee-whee-whee!' as you step through a detector in your mere undies.
