What is white noise?
Correct Answer
D. White noise is a random signal or process with a flat power spectral density
Explanation
White noise is a random signal or process with a flat power spectral density. This means that it contains equal power across all frequencies within a given range. It is called "white" noise because it is analogous to white light, which contains all visible colors in equal amounts. In the case of white noise, all frequencies are present with equal intensity, resulting in a constant and continuous random signal.

What is an EVP?
Correct Answer
B. Electronic voice pHenomena
Explanation
lectronic voice phenomena (EVP) are electronically generated noises that resemble speech, but are supposedly not the result of intentional voice recordings or renderings. Common sources of EVP include static, stray radio transmissions, and background noise. Recordings of EVP are often created from background sound by increasing the gain (i.e. sensitivity) of the recording equipment.[1]
Interest in EVP surrounds claims that it is of paranormal origin,[2] although many occurrences have had natural explanations including apophenia (finding significance in insignificant phenomena), auditory pareidolia (interpreting random sounds as voices in one's own language), equipment artifacts, and hoaxes.
Parapsychologist Konstantin Raudive, who popularized the idea,[3] described EVP as typically brief, usually the length of a word or short phrase.[4]

What is A poltergeist?
Correct Answer
C. A poltergeist is the apparent manifestation of an invisible but noisy, disruptive or destructive entity
Explanation
In folklore and the paranormal, a poltergeist is the apparent manifestation of an invisible but noisy, disruptive or destructive entity. Most accounts of poltergeist manifestations involve noises and destruction that have no apparent cause. Reports also include inanimate objects being picked up and thrown as if by an invisible person; noises such as knocking, rapping, or even human voices; and petty physical attacks on human beings, such as pinching, biting, and hitting.
Poltergeists have traditionally been described in folklore as troublesome spirits who, unlike ghosts, haunt a particular person instead of a specific location. Such alleged poltergeist manifestations have been reported in many cultures and countries including the United States, Japan, Brazil, Australia, and most European nations.[1] The earliest recorded cases date back to the 1st century.[2]

What does EMF mean?
Correct Answer
B. Electromagnetic field
Explanation
An electromagnetic field (also EMF or EM field) is a physical field produced by moving electrically charged objects. It affects the behavior of charged objects in the vicinity of the field. The electromagnetic field extends indefinitely throughout space and describes the electromagnetic interaction. It is one of the four fundamental forces of nature (the others are gravitation, the weak interaction, and the strong interaction).
The field can be viewed as the combination of an electric field and a magnetic field. The electric field is produced by stationary charges, and the magnetic field by moving charges (currents); these two are often described as the sources of the field. The way in which charges and currents interact with the electromagnetic field is described by Maxwell's equations and the Lorentz force law.
From a classical perspective, the electromagnetic field can be regarded as a smooth, continuous field, propagated in a wavelike manner; whereas from the perspective of quantum field theory, the field is seen as quantized, being composed of individual particles

Orbs can be caused by Lens flare
Correct Answer
A. True
Explanation
Lens flare occurs when non-image forming light enters the lens and creates artifacts such as orbs or circles of light. These orbs can appear in photographs or videos and are often caused by light sources such as the sun or bright lights reflecting off the lens elements. Lens flare is a common phenomenon in photography and can result in the appearance of orbs in the final image. Therefore, it is true that orbs can be caused by lens flare.
