Who Would You Be in 1400 AD Test...

(Me)

The Lord

You scored 24% Cardinal, 54% Monk, 38% Lady,  and 59% Knight!

    

You are of the intellectual breed and yet you are also very interested in war. You are of the aristocracy and head the cavalry a safe distance from the carnage of the front lines. You believe in defeating your enemy with not only might, but also wit. 

You scored high as both the Monk and the Knight. You can try again to get a more precise description of either the Monk or the Knight, or you can be happy that you're an individual.

(The Resident Murloc)

The Harlequin

You scored 50% Cardinal, 28% Monk, 50% Lady, and 46% Knight!

You are a mystery, a jack-of-all-trades. You have the king's ear, but also listen to murmurings of the common folk. You believe in the value of force and also literature. Truly you are the puzzlement of the age.

The Quiz: Planets Edition.

For the purposes of this quiz, I will be using the IAU definition of planet. Sorry, but Pluto is not considered, primarily because in questions of "least", "most", "greatest", and "smallest", it's more interesting if the objects in question share very similar characteristics. So the EIGHT planets that are valid answers for this quiz are (alphabetically) Earth, Jupiter, Mars, Mercury, Neptune, Saturn, Uranus, and Venus.

As with other quizzes, the numbers pre- and post-slash refer to the number of points you gain/lose for correct/incorrect answers. Answers are written after the questions. Highlight to read.

All answers are taken from Wikipedia. You got a problem wit dat, take it up wit dem. Also NO CHEATING!

Jupiter (radius: 71,000 km; surface area: 64 billion km²; volume: 1.4e15 km³; mass: 1.9e27 kg)
What is the smallest planet? (1/-10)
Mercury (2439 km radius)
What planet has the highest orbital velocity? (2/-10)
Mercury (47.87 km/s. Duh, this follows naturally from it being closest to the Sun)

Venus (0.95 Earth radii)
Which planet achieves the closest proximity to Earth? (3/-8)
Venus (≈40 million km)
How many planets are superior to Earth? (3/-7)

How many planets transit the Sun, as seen from Earth? (3/-6)
Two (Mercury and Venus). This follows naturally from them being the only inferior planets.
Which planet has the lowest non-zero number of moons? (3/-6)
Earth (1; duh)

Section II: "I know a thing or two about heavenly bodies."
Which planet has the most moons? (5/-3)

How many is that? (10/0)
63 (again, currently known)
How many planets have "significant" atmospheres (>1 millibar surface pressure)? (5/-3)
Seven (all except Mercury)
Which planet has the longest day? (5/-5)
Venus (243 days)
Shortest day? (8/0)

Saturn (70% that of water)
Which planet has the highest density? (6/-1)

Section III: "Ok, but not that much."
Which planet has the highest mean surface temperature? (5/0)
Venus (730 K)
How many planets have rings? (7/-2)
Four
Name them (x² where x is the number you got right):
Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, Neptune
Which planet has the highest degree of flattening (relative difference between polar radius and equatorial radius)? (7/0)
Saturn (0.0976)
Which planet has the most eccentric orbit (most elliptical)? (8/-2) See? This is why we can't invite Pluto to parties!
Mercury (0.206)
Least eccentric (most circular)? (9/0)
Venus (0.00677)
Which planet has the lowest equatorial surface gravity? (8/0)
Mars (Ha! Bet you didn't know that!) 3.69 m/s² (compared with Mercury, 3.7 m/s²)
Which planet's equatorial surface gravity is closest to that of Earth? (10/0)
Saturn (8.96 m/s², or .914g)
Which planet has the strongest magnetosphere? (9/0)
Jupiter
Which two planets have highly unusual magnetospheres, in that their magnetic poles are tilted at extreme angles from their axes of rotation, and the magnetic center is highly offset from the planetary center? (10/0)
Uranus and Neptune

Bonus Questions: "Buh?"
What planet has the highest planetary discriminant (clearest orbit)? (15/0)
Earth (1.7e6)
What planet has the lowest planetary discriminant ("dirtiest" orbit)? (15/0)
Neptune (2.4e4) (Compare this to Pluto's value, 0.077)
When the IAU defined a planet as having "cleared its orbit", they didn't assign any value definition to what that meant, leaving it open to interpretation. However, we can try and quantify this by using the "planetary discriminant" which is, basically, the mass of the body in question, divided by the mass of all other objects which share that body's orbital zone, but are not dominated gravitationally by that body (such as moons) nor in orbital resonance with the body (such as trojans). Using this method, it is plainly visible that the clearest Dwarf Planet's orbit (Pluto's) is six orders of magnitude less "cleared" than the "dirtiest" planet's. So even by the vague terminology of "cleared its orbit", it's very easy to say that the eight planets conform to that terminology and Pluto does not.

Scoring:
(-∞, -100): Boy, you suck at both Astronomy and Math.
[-100, -50): Unga. Grok see if rocks edible. Grok like looking at shiny dots in sky. Unga.
[-50, 0): You're probably in favor of burning those who say the Earth revolves around the Sun at the stake.
[0, 50): Tycho Brahe
[50, 100): Galileo Galilei (heretic)
[100, 150): Edwin Hubble
[150, 175]: Johannes Kepler
(175, ∞): Nicolaus Copernicus
(205, ∞): You're either really good at astronomy, or you suck at math, probably both.

You can all feel a little safer.

The Quiz: Harry Potter Edition.

Scoring: Each question has two numbers for the score (in the form of x/y). The X is the number of points you get if you get the question right. The Y is the number you lose if you get it wrong. You can also skip over a question without answering and not lose or gain any points. This is an open-book quiz, so feel free to look up the answers in the books, but beware!
