Question

I know what it is but what do they actually do?

Answer 1

Nobles were the people who were granted land ownership by the Kings during the middle ages. They owed the king troops or fighters in exchange for being landlords of the people who lived on the land.
In current times, they are just social indicators of parentage or family.

Answer 2

2 answers:
1) in political terms, a noble is someone who is granted a title (e.g. duke, count, knight) by the ruling monarch (i.e. the king, queen, emperor, etc). Nobles generally administrate some portion of the government. For example, a noble may be a regional governer (like Jeb Bush), a leader in the state's bureaucracy (like the minister of finance) or even a military commander (like a general).
2) In chemical terms, a nobel is an element, generally gaseous at room temperature, which does not readily interact chemically with other elements. Examples include neon and argon. They are called nobles because they don't interact with other (more common) elements.

Answer 3

The Nobel Prizes are prizes instituted by the will of Alfred Nobel, awarded to people (and, in the case of the Peace Prize, to organizations) who/which have completed outstanding research, invented ground-breaking techniques or equipment or made an outstanding contribution to society in physics, chemistry, literature, peace and medicine or physiology. They are widely regarded as the supreme commendation in their respective subject areas. Recipients of the award are known as Nobel Laureates.

As of November 2005, a total of 776 Nobel Prizes have been awarded, 758 to individuals and 18 to organizations.[1] A few Prize winners have declined the award. There are years in which one or more Prizes are not awarded; during World War II, for instance, no Prizes were awarded in any category between 1940 and 1942. Each Prize stipulates, however, that it must be awarded at least once every five years.

Prizes cannot be revoked. Since 1974, no award may be made posthumously, i.e. nominees must be alive at the time of their nomination.

Nobel's will
Alfred Nobel.

Alfred Nobel.

The Prizes were instituted by the final will of Alfred Nobel, a Swedish chemist, industrialist, and the inventor of dynamite. Alfred Nobel wrote several wills during his lifetime. The last one was written on November 27, 1895—a little over a year before he died. He signed it at the Swedish-Norwegian Club in Paris on November 27, 1895. Nobel's work had directly involved the creation of explosives, and he became increasingly uneasy with the military usage of his inventions. It is said that this was motivated in part by his reading of a premature obituary of himself, published in error by a French newspaper on the occasion of the death of Nobel's brother Ludvig, and which condemned Alfred as a "merchant of death." So in his will, Alfred left 94% of his worth to the establishment of five prizes:
