  1. I can't decipher this paragraph. Looks like a bad translation.

    It is clear. It can be clearly understood by a layman. Therefore, there is no such a room. I do. I know why it doesn't escape. It is simple and consistent. There are no ambiguities. This is what has happened in your case, I assume.
  3. Bravo. +1. Yes, it does
  4. The part two of that quote is:
  5. This quote only needs a small 100-year update:
  6. After a couple of comments regarding "no equations" phrase in the title I've realized that it would be better to clarify, like:
  7. "No equations" is a vague statement, I realize. Let's say, equations are not needed, but allowed. Don't take this part too seriously. We are asked to find the area of the square in m2. Please provide your answers using the "Spoiler" feature for others not to be affected.
  8. Yes, all correct. The last three are equal squares. This square's area is the question. Right. +1. The steps are not needed, but would be interesting to see, as they might be different.
  9. Well, you equate an unknown to something known - this is an equation indeed, but you don't need to solve this equation to find the unknown. Anyway, this is rather semantics, and the fact is that your answer is correct. +1 I'd like to ask you to hide your solution using the Spoiler feature, so that others could try as well.
  10. I am an atom in the human population.
  11. And I am pointing out that macro does not apply because the population is not on the macro level.
  12. I leave it up to moderators to decide.
  13. Unpredictable. Depends on circumstances, random factors and events, incidences and coincidences, etc.
  14. That needs only a handful of people.
  15. The West has already won.

    Turns out that this^^^ is a very mild way to put it. Just an hour ago my wife called me to show the question in Jeopardy: This is too obvious. No need to know anything about these people and their prize. There is only one choice, isn't it? None of the contestants had anything to say about it. Silence!

    They could say, e.g., "nothing, including light, ... ". What is the point of saying "even light" other than a dramatic effect?

    Do you think the writers of these descriptions actually think about what readers might know about light and gravity? Or do they just keep repeating the catch phrase without thinking about it? I wonder, who had written it first.
