Nanoelectromechanical systems quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Nanoelectromechanical systems card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
NEMS form the next logical ______ step from so-called microelectromechanical systems, or MEMS devices.
Answer
miniaturization. NEMS form the next logical miniaturization step from so-called microelectromechanical systems, or MEMS devices. From the Nanoelectromechanical systems article on Wikipedia.
Which of these cards hits hardest (highest ATK)?
Answer
Hurricane Ivan tornado outbreak. Hurricane Ivan tornado outbreak 83 · Health psychology 80 · Nanoelectromechanical systems 76 · Charles Louis Alphonse Laveran 70 ATK in WikiCards.
Which of these Wikipedia articles is read the most in a year?
Answer
Henry Hazlitt. Henry Hazlitt 27,000 · Rudolf Rocker 17,000 · Nanoelectromechanical systems 9,600 · Quinolinic acid 7,400 Wikipedia reads over a year.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- NEMS form the next logical miniaturization step from so-called microelectromechanical systems, or MEMS devices.
- NEMS typically integrate transistor-like nanoelectronics with mechanical actuators, pumps, or motors, and may thereby form physical, biological, and chemical sensors.
- The name derives from typical device dimensions in the nanometer range, leading to low mass, high mechanical resonance frequencies, potentially large quantum mechanical effects such as zero point motion, and a high surface-to-volume ratio useful for surface-based sensing mechanisms.
Why it is Common
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Nanoelectromechanical systems article was read about 9,600 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 76 and blocks with 74: each hit it takes is cut by 30 %.
How to get Nanoelectromechanical systems
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
