When was the existence of the Higgs Boson confirmed?
22012
12002
Good Answer!
The HiggsEcouter boson is an elementary particle whose existence helps to explain the breaking of the unified electroweak interaction into two interactions and thus explain why some particles have mass and others do not. Its existence was confirmed experimentally in 2012 through the use of the LHC and led to the award of the Nobel Prize in Physics to François Englert and Peter Higgs in 2013.

What scientist discovered the laws of gravity?
2Isaac Newton
1Albert Einstein
Good Answer!
The universal law of gravitation or the law of universal attraction, discovered by Isaac Newton, is the law describing gravitation as a force responsible for the fall of bodies and the movement of celestial bodies, and in general, for the attraction between bodies with mass, such as planets, natural or artificial satellites.

What is the name of the high-speed train system in operation in Japan?
2Shinkansen
1SCMaglev
Good Answer!
Shinkansen is the high-speed train system in operation in Japan. The name refers to both the trains and the infrastructure. The use of a set of dedicated lines and the techniques employed made Shinkansen a forerunner and Japan the pioneer of high-speed rail travel when it came into service in 1964.
