How do you capture a king?
In chess, a king can capture any other piece except another king. Getting next to a the opposing king puts you in check because it allows your king to be taken first losing the game. Moving next to the opposing queen is the same situation unless the queen moves next to the king as some sort of sacrifice ploy.

Can a king capture a king in draughts?
This is what someone said: No. For that to happen in the previous move the king put himself at check, in an adjacent square to the enemy king's square, which is an illegal move. But I say: Yes. the king can capture another king ONLY if the king is protected like a white queen protects a white king.
Can a pawn capture a king?
Yes, a pawn may capture any piece on the board as long as it is a legal move. One way it could happen is the pawn is blocking lets say a Bishop or a Rook from attacking the opponent's king. The pawn moves to a square where it attacks the Queen. Normally the Queen would either just capture the pawn or move away from it. But if the move of the pawn now places the king in check from that Bishop or Rook (this is called a discovered check) the King must move out of check. If the player now in check has no alternative but to move the King out of check, then once he moves the king, the pawn is free to capture the Queen.

What materials absorb sound the best and which do not?
Usually, stuff that is soft will absorb sound.answ2. Sound is a vibration of air molecules, and anything that may be made to absorb energy from the molecules will absorb sound. If the material has soft fibres, and can allow the sound to penetrate easily, (is porous) then the collision of sound molecules with the fibres, will transfer the energy from the molecules to the inelastic fibres, where it will be dissipated as heat.
