marvel - What did Veronica spray on Hulk in Age of Ultron?

In Age of Ultron, after Wanda Maximoff sends Hulk into a rampage, Tony Stark has to call in Veronica to Pacify Hulk because Natasha is not available to pacify him.

Veronica sprays Hulk with a lot of liquid in the middle of the physical fight. The liquid weakens Hulk so that only a little more fighting is required before Hulk reverts into Bruce Banner.

What is the fluid that Veronica sprays on Hulk?

Answer

While the Hulk's exterior is quite robust and able to resist quite a bit of damage, early depictions of the Hulk showed him to be susceptible to gases, tranquilizers and being deprived of oxygen. For a time it was one of the only ways to subdue the Hulk long enough for the plot of stories to develop. The chemical agent depicted is never described in the cinematic release. Perhaps in the extended blue-ray it will get an official name.

Eventually writers were no longer able to use any form of chemical against him and they even showed certain drugs like nerve agents which should kill normal humans, only temporarily weakening him or turning him into an even more dangerous version of the Hulk.

It is most probable the spray used by the Hulk-suppression system Veronica used an agent designed to weaken the Hulk sufficiently that he could be rendered unconscious. And like most things where the Hulk is concerned, it took some time to work. Since Banner and Stark worked on the Veronica system together, they were likely confident the agent would work, at least for a time...

futurama - How much time is lost in 'Time Keeps on Slippin''

In time Keeps on Slippin' , Farnsworth creates a basketball team which he matures by abusing Chronitons. This leads to time skipping forward by random, but ever increasing amounts. How much time was skipped in this way? Answer Unfortunately, I don't think a good estimate can be made for this, for two reasons: Many of the time skips move forward by an indeterminate amount of time. At one point, the Professor mentions localized regions of space skipping forward much more than others. We then see two young boys on the street below complaining about having to pay social security, only to suddenly become senior citizens and start complaining about wanting their money. Thus, each individual could have experienced a different amount of time skippage.

harry potter - How could Expelliarmus beat Avada Kedavra?

I want to be very careful about how I ask this question – I am not asking How did Voldemort die? [CLOSED] Below the text is the relevant passages from Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows if anyone wants to review them (I'm sorry for the amount of text). How did Expelliarmus beat Avada Kedavra and kill Voldemort? I feel the reason Harry's Expelliarmus overpowered Voldemort's Avada Kedavra curse has to do with who was master of the Elder Wand and how the Elder Wand works. I've always had trouble understanding fully how the Elder Wand works, though. How much did the fact that Voldemort never truly won or mastered the Elder Wand factor into how Expelliarmus reacted to Avada Kedavra and caused Avada Kedavra to rebound and kill Voldemort? An answer based in book canon would be especially welcome, but any canon source really is fine. Harry heard the high voice shriek as he, too, yelled his best hope to the heavens, pointing Draco’s wand: ‘ Avada Kedavra !’ ‘ Expelliarmus !...

tolkiens legendarium - Difference between elves and dwarves blacksmithing in the Lord of the Rings

Both the elves and the dwarves were famous for their metal work in the Lord of the Rings trilogy, but what is the difference between what they made, and which one had the better skill of making amours and swords? Answer James Christopher's answer sums up the second part of your question well, but as to the difference in what they made, a little more detail is needed. Once the Elves learned to forge with steel, the shape of the sword changed, now being able to take on the form of a great broadsword or a light and agile curved sword. Additionally, they took great pride in decorating their swords. As we see in the Lord of the Rings , some swords like Sting had magical properties such as glowing blue when orcs are near. As far as the use of Mithril, lotr.wikia has two contradictory passages: Thus, Elven blades became renowned as great weapons, capable of performing deeds beyond the skill of their handlers and were even more glorious when the use of Mithril was allowed to the Elves. ...
