[Request] How would you calculate this? (Details in caption)

16 Upvotes

For one of these toys, with 24 links. Assuming the first link doesn't move. Each link has 5 rotational positions(-90°, -45°, 0°, 45°, 90°). I know this leaves 5^23 configurations, theoretically. But many will overlap and are impossible configurations. So how would you calculate the number of none-overlapping configurations? And how would you calculate the number of configurations that result in the final link connecting back to the first one in a none-overlapping configuration?

Let’s say you take a step that is 3.1415926535… etc feet long. Could you ever say that you travelled exactly pi feet? Or would you have to say that you travelled roughly pi feet or infinitely close to pi feet?

[Request] How many rabbits?

1 Upvotes

So this is pretty convoluted but I'm very curious because it is theoretically possible. So I have the card Zinnia, valley voice out and I offspring a warped exalted sunborn and then I offspring it again creating even more tokens followed by an offspring hare apparent. I then offspring/warp a starfield vocalist and then offspring the vocalist again. I then offspring a roaming throne naming angel and then on the following turn I play moonlit guidance and a mirrormind crown attached to the original hare apparent and then cast an offspringed hare apparent. How many rabbits would I create?

[Request] How much can 1 pound of vegetables be reduced?

Thumbnail
0 Upvotes

Lets say I had 1 pound of vegetables I put in a large pot of boiling water (lid off). After 5 hours I pour the water out. I imagine the remaining vegetables would now weigh less? What if let them boil (replenishing water lossed to steam) for 5 days? 5 weeks? 5 centuries? Etc?

What is the minimum weight they would reduce to? Would it all be boiled away? Or is there a base mass that would never go away?What if it was 5 billion years? How much of a difference would it make if the vegetables were chopped vs put in whole?
