0:03 Kalaroga Shark Media. Hi. I'm Mark Ellison. In today's theme is International Women's Day Trailblazing women who changed history. Question one. Which pioneering scientist became the first person ever to win Nobel Prizes in two different scientific fields and in which disciplines did she earn them? Question two? In nineteen sixty who became the world's first female prime minister when she assumed leadership of Salon and what is that country known as today? Question three? On June sixteenth, nineteen sixty three, which Soviet cosmonaut became the first woman in space and what was the name of her mission? Question four? Which Kenyan environmental activist founded the Green Belt movement to combat deforestation and empower women and later became the first African woman to receive the Nobel Peace Prize in two thousand and four. Question five. Which experimental physicists nineteen fifty six cobalt sixty beta decay study now known as the WU experiment, demonstrated that parody is not conserved in weak nuclear interactions.

1:28 We'll be right back with these answers after this break. Welcome back. Question one, who first won Nobels in two different sciences and which fields? Answer Marie Curie, Physics and chemistry. Curi shared the nineteen oh three Nobel Prize in Physics for research on radioactivity and won the nineteen eleven Nobel Prize in Chemistry for discovering radium and polonium.

Question five, which physicists nineteen fifty six experiments showed parody violation in weak interactions

3:03 answer Chin Chyung Wu. Wu's low temperature cobalt sixty experiment confirmed a bold prediction by Sungdow Lie and chen Ning Yang, reshaping particle physics. While Lie and Yang received the nineteen fifty seven Nobel Prize, Wu's crucial contribution is celebrated as a landmark in experimental physics. That concludes today's five daily Trivia questions.
