LOL Friday! Interesting Test Question Answers

Here are some interesting test question answers.  OK, they may not get a correct answer.  But you gotta give them something for the effort!

Q: Explain why phosphorous trichloride is polar.
A: God made it that way.  (How can you argue with logic like that!)

Q: Briefly explain what hard water is.
A: Ice  (Can't be more brief than that!)

Q: Name one of the early Romans' greatest achievements.
A: Learning to speak Latin.

Q: Name one measure which can be put into place to avoid river flooding in times of extensive rainfall (e.g. in Mississippi).

Q: Name six animals which live specifically in the Arctic.
A: Two polar bears, three four seals.  (Yes, that is EXACTLY how they wrote it.  Apparently, they couldn't think of a third animal, so they made the number of seals four.)

Q: How does Romeo's character develop throughout the play?
A: He doesn't.  It's just self, self, self, all the way through.  (Sounds like this student's getting Romeo mixed up with "This little piggy" going "wee, wee, wee, all the way home".)

Q: What is the highest frequency noise that a human can register?

A: He could find out by checking his speedometer.  (Triple DUH!)

Q: What is a vibration?

You just can't make this stuff up, people!
