First off, this is a game of asking questions. The one who asks the first question will need to state whenever someone answered his or her question correctly. Then it's the lucky winner's person to ask a new question. This can go on forever, but I doubt it will, as theoretically, our server will fill up with an almost infinite amount of MySQL database info.
Remember, you NEED to write the question yourself! You are by no means allowed to use anyone else's work for this!
Anyway, here is my question:
Assume that you have an amount of perfectly spherical containers with the radius 96.8 vendekometers, and your Physics' teacher want you to find out how many of these spheres it would take to hold (or contain) exactly 548.47169 xennalitres of Einsteinium in plasma form. How many whole atoms can you get into containers, and what is the amount of containers neccesary for this process? Write the answer in binary form.

It is impossible to distribute the volume of Einsteinium in to any exact number of those spheres, it does not divide evenly into the volume of that sphere.

Wouldnt einsteinium have a half-life, therefore always breaking down...? making it impossible to get the exact mass of it in there at any given moment in time?

Well, einsteinium-253, has a half-life of about 20 days and is produced by combining 15 neutrons with uranium-238. However, unless nothing else is stated in the question, the half-life is the default value.
Shpook
2003-02-01, 03:20 PM
Not quite. That would only be true if it had a half-life of like 5 seconds. In that case it would break down so fast it would pretty much disinegrate before your eyes. Einsteinium-253 has a half-life of about 20 days. Einsteinium-252 has a half-life of of about 470 days. So depending on which isotope is used, and how long it takes to contain it, it would be possible to get the exact mass in a container at any given time.
Now, Chruser, since I still don't understand what a vendekometer and a xennoliter are, I can't attempt to answer. but I'll go find out right now....

Actually if what you say here is true, then it should also be possible to get the exact position of a moving object at any given time...which you cannot.

Well, your thinking to specifically, mantralord. By the rules of (umm, you know, i don't remember what its called right now, but anyway), this is true, you can never get the exact mass or position. But then again you can never get anything TRULY exact. You can never create a perfect circle, or a straight line. But it would be non-exact on such a small level that for this application it's unnecessary. So the word "exact" is stated as meaning as close to TRUE as we can get.
Now, even if it had a half-life of 5 seconds, you can still "take a snapshot" and get the exact mass.
And I believe what I forgot in the above paragraph was a sub-theory of Chaos theory, but I still don't quite remember.

That's like seeing a picture of a spaceship on a math test where you're supposed to find its volume, and you state that it has no volume, as it's just an image on a piece of paper.
Like most IQ tests, if nothing specific is stated, just go for the standard model.

Container is too small to fit an atom in it.
Question: Pope Gregory XIII instutited the Gregorian calendar in 1582. To be more accurate in time-keeping, instead of adding one day every fourth year, 97 days are added every 400 years meaning, when averaged, the year is 365.2425 days long. What year will it be when the Gregorian calendar is a day off?

if an IQ test is in any way unspecific it is flawed.
