Just curious!

This makes no sense. Can someone explain where the hours/day go?

My wife and I are having a multi-year debate. She keeps claiming that a “large and impressive” horse is roughly the same volume as 60,000 grapes. i disagree and believe that’s far too many grapes to make up a standard horse, even a big one. But we have no idea how to calculate the relative volumes… please help!

Edit: thank you all, I’ll graciously accept defeat in this battle

With Arte Moreno finally selling the Angels, it made me wonder: What are the odds the Dodgers play the Angels in the World Series, the Rams play the chargers in the Super Bowl, and the Lakers play the Clippers in the Western Conference finals in the same year? (I don't watch NHL so I don't really know the LA teams) Assuming the current standings of the teams in their respective leagues, how likely is this all LA sports year?

I can't imagine the cost to "return to Mars to save just one man." Has anyone already done the math? The movie is from 2015. I also wonder what the actual mathematical odds are that they'd even find him, retrieve him, and return him to Earth. Wait - aren't all odds mathematical?

Assuming human eyesight did not have a distance limit. How far away would one molecule have to be away from the sun for it to block your view of the sun. Assuming the molecule is 3 feet away from the humans eye and both the sun and the molecule are in a straight line.

Monzo has a 'save 1p a day' challenge, so on day 1 you save 1p, day 2 you save 2p and so on. It restarts at 1p each year.

The interest is 3.6%AER paid monthly.

How long would you need to save before you got a single monthly interest payment that would pay for a single day, before the daily amount was taken.

For example, you got paid £1.61p before day 161 of the year.

I'm talking cubic meters of water evaporated and other risks if thats even possible, if thats not the proper subreddit i would love for one of you to redirect me to the correct one

From all i know, a pistol shrimp snap is around 5k°c at its highest and sun is 15million at its core

Hi guys I was told to post on this sub

I have an idea of using my parent's electric car (KIA EV6) as a battery for powering 2x QSC K12 MK1 (1000W each) + 1 Pioneer DDJ SX1 (see specs on 2nd pic) + 1 laptop (has own battery) to throw a free party

Would this be possible electricity wise ?

Car battery is 58kWh

1st pic : K12's specs

2nd pic : Pioneer DDJ Sx specs
3rd pic : What the car can handle, what's written next to the plug

Thanks

I saw that Tagah used airbending to stop this mountain falling with one hand by blasting at the bottom which seems very inefficient. This must be millions of kilo's of force right?

Whats the chance of this pull? (Hearthstone) its 4 legendaries and one is signature. I think its 1% chance a card is legendary, but i think its a binomial probability for more legendaries per card idk. And i think a signature legendary is a 1 in 181 packs..

Can someone help me with this :D

I've seen average income being quoted as $60ish thousand, but I know that income from stocks and capital are seperate from 'earned' income. If all the money that everyone in the USA earned from any source was put together and shared out equally how much would someone get? I'd also be curious about other forms of wealth such as property, but I expect that would get complicated?

Was watching Star Trek and got to wondering assuming the replicator arranged atoms to create a plate of spaghetti. Which would have a more complex job of these 2 replicators to make #1 assembling a plate of spaghetti at the atomic level #2 assembling an oxygen atom out of sub atomic particles? Thanks if anyone gets my weird idea enough to do the math.
