54/60 this evening and a nice amount of questions. I tend to find the 100 question ones a bit too long for concentration reasons. Thanks for uploading and taking the time Ben 😮.
You are welcome 😁
I was about to say that it would be nice to be able to see the questions and answers after the quiz was over, and then I noticed the transcript was an option that did exactly that. Thank you for that. No test you can't learn from is worth anything.
Turns out that although I felt rushed on some, I only got two wrong -the one on Mercury - I was thinking orbit, not planet average distance, and the one on the number of tectonic plates - I was sure it was more than 7. It's a real challenge at 1.5x speed. Good tests - they keep you on your feet. At 79 years old, that's where I want to be!
49/60 : Not good 😢 , Incorrect ones were 4,7,10,13,19,24,26,35,41,44,53 . And ironically .. Forgot what the bonus was at the end .. lol
I HATE getting old .. lol
My Dad used to say, when hauling himself out of an armchair, after a few strokes, aching and slow, 'Well, better here than the other place!' .... He is in 'the other place' now.
Just not your special subject. I did quite good, but failed miserably at pop music and human body quizzes and I'm very young.....at heart! 😂😂
Another very instructive quiz, Ben. Thanks for all your hard work 🙏🥰
My pleasure 😊
@@Quizzes4U --
I've always enjoyed your quizzes, Ben. They're well-researched, interesting, and always educational. Thanks again 😊
YEA!!!! I got a perfect score for the first time!!!!!!! Also Lake Baikal (which is how I knew the other related question)
Awesome
WOW! That's great! 🏆
I got 37/60 for the score.
Well! I scored a completely pathetic 36 correct. Disappointed, but certainly learned a lot. A brilliant quiz, even though I flunked it! Thanks Ben.
13:40 "Let's hope another one is not due soon" -- another one is happening right now! Current extinction rates are even higher than during most other mass extinctions, in fact.
😳
55/60 and Lake Baikal - warmest thanks for yet another brilliant quiz! Have a lovely weekend, Ben! 🙂
Thank you, have a great weekend too 😊
One reason I like your quizzes is that I ever never seen any mistakes. You probably know that many others have mistakes and many mispronunciations. I saw one recently that said that Amundsen was the first to reach both the North and South Poles
i think i got about 45/60 was hard imho thanx!
Feet... Most of the world uses metric now, but you go with feet. Apart from that, great quiz!
57/60. Lake Baikal in Russia is the oldest and deepest lake as well as the one with the greatest volume.
59/60. I know my planet. I only missed the one about what causes the earth to bulge at the equator.
Thank you so much. I am learning a lot.👍👍👏
Glad to hear that
40/60-and very pleasantly surprised, i enjoyed this quiz a lot. Thank you.
Glad you were pleasantly surprised 😁👍 I aim to please 😬
Your question about the cause of ocean tides is slightly wrong.
The gravity of the sun and moon cause the bulges in sea water level.
The rotation of the Earth causes the level at a given point on Earth to go up and down.
The bulges stay roughly fixed relative to the sun and moon.
Earth's rotation moves a point on the surface through the deeper and shallower bulges.
The correct answer is both the gravity of the Sun and Moon and rotation of the Earth cause tides.
If the Earth did not rotate the bulges in sea level would still be there,
but the water level would not go up and down twice per day.
Yes, It could be argued that it would still go up and down twice a month,
but changing the rotation answer choice to something else could avoid this possible confusion.
lake baikal? and before pangea was ganwana. the challenger deep in the Mar. Trench is the deepest part. 93M is 1 AU.
This was fun. got 90.

I got 90% not too bad!
İ really surprised myself getting 40/60, great quiz, something a bit different and educational. The lake is Baikal in Russia. Thanks for this good fun.
Dane here. 59 correct answers. Missed the origin of the word Earth.
You can answer 30 questions if you don't the exact answer. Go with the middle option.
I got a 70% and was happy, because I usually do way worse on these quizzes.
I got 51 right! (going by the honor system)

56/60 Q11.There are people out there that believe the earth is flat. The Flat Earth Sociey has members all around the globe :)
First 40 right, but then got four or five wrong - bit disappointed.
When Montgomery Burns had to fill out a form it asked him his birthplace and he replied Pangaea. 😂
North America is a subcontinent NOT a continent. The continent as a whole includes: South America, Central America and the Caribbean Islands, North America and all of the US territories. All of these countries together are known as AMERICA.
Look it up.
To some degree the definition of what is a continent is arbitrary, is Europe really a continent, or is it just part of the Asian continent?
America is the continent. including Noth Central and South America. and what is the meaning of Central America? well, the central part of America. Not the united states.
According to your logic,Asia and Europe are one continent...
You're a 🤡
30/60..hm..
53/60 +1 = 54/60
31 correct out of 60 🙄
The buldge is because of the moon, not the rotation.
Thanks for commenting. Let me share some references "This bulge exists because of a force created by Earth's rotation. www.astronomy.com/science/earths-equatorial-bulge-shapes-the-planets-physics/ and education.nationalgeographic.org/resource/equator/
yeah , that is why i grew so fat too, great excuse... :)
47/60 = 78%
Wrong: 4, 16, 19, 21, 26, 36, 39, 43, 44, 51, 56, 57, 59
sincw when north america is a continent . america is a continent
Yikes, I'm getting worse. 80%
I'm guessing that at least a certain number of these questions are based on a person believing in the big bang concept, right?
I'm not even sure this isn't the matrix 😳
@@Quizzes4U 😆
It is based on 6days religious fairytales.
@@juliacoburn7455So much for trying to be civil in our discourse.

Just so you know, 'further' is used when describing anything besides distance, as in " she wished to further her goals." ' Farther' is used when describing distance: "The Moon is getting farther away..." Also, the word 'moon' is capitalized when talking about Earth's moon specifically, as I've done in the previous sentence; I've used the more general case in this sentence (not capitalized).
Hi. Thanks for commenting. Let me explain, just so you know. I'm English, and in English both further and farther can be used to describe distance. The most commonly used in English is further. In fact farther is very rarely used. Across the pond in American English, you are correct, farther should be used. Seeing as I'm not an American, I will stick to the English way of saying it. Thanks. 😁 Here's an interesting article on it langblog.englishplus.com/?p=207
In classic English, you are correct. You explain further. You travel farther. But the words have come to be interchangeable in modern use. English is evolving, some would say becoming bastardized. I, for one. Hell, I hear nuclear scientists these days say "nucular".
Since when is mercury closest to earth?
The key part of that question was "on average". Here's an excellent article on it. www.sciencefocus.com/space/what-is-the-closest-planet-to-earth
Shit! the moon is moving further away, so it is going to cost us more energy, time and money to go there again. Or we just leave it and try mars. Hopefully that one is moving closer, but not on a frontal collision path.
#8 is incorrect
Earth is slowly moving farther away.
Thanks for commenting. No it's not. The moon orbits the Earth, so the Earth cannot be the one that's moving further away. Here's some references on it www.livescience.com/space/the-moon/will-earth-ever-lose-its-moon and www.space.com/moon-drifting-away-from-earth-2-5-billion-years
I didn't mean to word it that way, I meant to say
farther is correct, further isn't.
Yes, the moon is moving farther away. (but not further)
@@barney6888 In English both can be used, and further is the preferred one in English. In American English farther is correct, but seeing as I'm English I will stick to the English one.
@@Quizzes4U
I'm Canadian and don't like to use the American version of English.
Further should be "in addition to"
and farther is an increased distance.
Doesn't matter now because I bungled the first post anyway.

Didnt care!
Your answer to question 10 is flat out wrong. Venus is the closest with an average distance of 0.28 AU. Mars is next at 0.5 AU and Mercury is actually furthest away of the three at 0.61 AU.
Thanks for commenting. Let me explain. I know this question is correct as I have extensively researched it. Although Venus passes the closest to Earth, it is often at the opposite side the sun to Earth on its orbit. Mercury, which orbits faster is more often closer to us, and therefore calculated as closer on average. Here are some articles that explain it better than I can. pubs.aip.org/physicstoday/online/30593/Venus-is-not-Earth-s-closest-neighbor and www.popularmechanics.com/space/solar-system/a26839314/closest-planet-to-earth-on-average/ and www.sciencefocus.com/space/what-is-the-closest-planet-to-earth
@@Quizzes4U I had a look at that article in Physics Today and it seems that my old Astronomy textbook (which I checked before shouting at you) is wrong. I just assumed that the planets hadn't changed since it was written (other than Pluto being demoted). But it seems our way of calculating average distance has. Fair enough.
Glad I helped update your knowledge 😁
@@Quizzes4U This was not a good question, it is badly formulated. I actually assumed first that "closest" means likeness: size, mass, etc. Also "on average" for you means "how many times it comes close to us" and for me it would be average between the closest and the farthest distance from Earth. Too many interpretations are possible ). Please exclude this from any further quizzes, or change the question to make it unambiguous.
@@_Diana_S thanks for commenting. However I disagree. It is worded exactly right. If I had meant closest in size I would have written that, plus the on average part should indicate that it does not mean size. Average distance is not open to interpretation, it is a calculation. Anyway, thanks for sharing your thoughts. 😁😁
Please do not use "miles" it is not an internationally used thing... I made 5 mistakes, I thought Venus was the same size as Earth.. And the miles thing is confusing.. Now you do the quiz in Dutch, fair is fair... Or German if you can't speak proper Dutch. And the bonus I knew too.
Oh yes it is!
But he is English, and he did the quiz in English! Most people know the British use Imperial measures rather than metrics. But nowadays most Brits are educated in both imperial and metrics and should be able to convert one to another quite easily. However, imperial measures would still be the first thing that most old schoolers go to. To tell these old schoolers to use metrics is similar to telling them to speak another language!
Hey, not so much of the ‘old-schoolers’ please - although, as I’m 76 & did all my schooling in imperial (including chains, furlongs, rods, poles & perches), the term is appropriate really.
Working in a bank on the day our money went metric was a thing of nightmares.
@@marionbayley1351 My apology, didn't means to offend anyone.
No offence taken. 💙🩵
Good quiz, but you can’t measure a mountain’s height from its base to its highest peak, height is a vertical measurement. The correct answer would be Mount Everest. 11:26
Thanks for commenting. I think you can, here's a scientific reference www.sciencefocus.com/planet-earth/what-is-the-tallest-mountain-in-the-world
But when the question states how a measurement is going to specifically done, doesn't that negate any other form of measurement, even if that's not the most common way that measurement is done?
What he meant was that some mountains' bases can be under the ocean, i.e. the mountain starts a few kilometers down there on the ocean floor and then breaches the surface and goes up and up. In this case Mauna Kea is the highest. And Everest is actually even smaller, because its base is elevated by a significant amount and if we count from base to the summit, it will be way less than 8848 m.. Now, if we measure height as "meters above sea level" (which is a standard in geography), then Everest is the highest.
I know the earth is not a spinning ball; and I know everyone was indoctrinated with that nonsense.
Flat Earthers have very poor knowledge of the Earth, I doubt most could score more than 30/60.
57/60 Didn't know India passed China in population. Deepest Lake Baikal.
