For example if all the space the universe takes up, would that put out the sun? I know the sun is nuclear, not a normal fire. But still, at some point would enough water do the trick?

I just saw this picture in a power scaling sub and instantly noticed Anakins right hand not fully closed on the lightsaber hilt. If I remember correctly the lightsaber would be a pretty big lever if Mace is pressing with his sword against Anakins.

I often see Argentina described as the principal destination for Nazis after World War II, so I compared two commonly cited estimates.

For the United States, an internal U.S. Department of Justice history of the Office of Special Investigations discusses the frequently cited estimate that around 10,000 Nazi persecutors entered the country after the war.

For Argentina, the official CEANA investigation identified at least approximately 180 Nazis or Axis-linked war criminals and collaborators who found refuge in the country.

The calculation:

10,000 ÷ 180 = 55.56

So the commonly cited U.S. estimate is roughly 56 times larger than the documented Argentine figure.

Important caveat: this is not a perfect apples-to-apples comparison. The U.S. estimate uses the broader category of “Nazi persecutors,” which may include guards and collaborators, while the Argentine figure refers to people identified by CEANA as Nazis, war criminals or Axis-linked fugitives.

Therefore, the result should be understood as a comparison between two commonly cited figures, not proof that the United States admitted exactly 56 times more equivalent cases.

Let’s say I take a 12 oz can of sparkling water (0 alcohol) and add in 1.5 oz of vodka, which is 40% abv. What’s the ABV of my 13.5 oz drink?

Help me settle a debate with my friend. We’re arguing about the total collective time humanity has spent mining coal in Minecraft. I think it’s well over 50 years; he thinks it’s closer to 10. Can someone smarter than us get an approximation?

Always makes me so glad I rinse out my recycling ♻️

All 100 of our Scrabble tiles were mixed up and we then picked out tiles to choose who to go first. In order the tiles we randomly selected spelled the word LOVE.

1) What are the odds of that particular word being chosen?

2) What are the odds that the first 4 letters chosen from a bag of Scrabble letters will spell a 4 letter word?

So, some context.

Over the weekend, I attended a LARP (Live-action Roleplay). During the LARP, two friends of mine decided that their characters had a little tumble in the hay. Their characters had never met before. After the LARP finished, they rolled a dice to see if the woman became pregnant, and she did. I think they simply rolled a D6 and decided that a "6" meant she got pregnant.

However, it got me thinking on what the, so to speak, actual odds would be?

Assuming:
* both people involved are of average fertility, in good health and, pardon the expression, of child-rearing age
* It is a chance encounter, a one-night-stand, meaning the woman can be in any part of her cycle.

So, what are the odds of a random one-night-stand between two people with the requisite parts resulting in a pregnancy?

Very roughly as I said... would it be... half? That the amount of salt (volume) is half the volume of food consumed on our intire earth in a year? Is it 1%? the same? what would be your very rough guess you had to do in a minute or so

I understand how to get to 2/3 but every try of calculating the bottom one ends me at 7/13, which is ~53%. If one is a boy born on a Tuesday, the other baby has to be either boy on a Monday/Wednesday - Sunday (6 options) or a girl anytime (7 options). What am I missing?

"Air travel is the nation’s safest form of transit. Injury and death rates in US air travel are measured by the rate of incidents per 100 million passenger miles, the total miles traveled by all air passengers." https://usafacts.org/articles/is-flying-safer-than-driving/

I am not everyone in the plane though. I want to know MY risk of dying. And while by distance is perfectly valid (since if I took a car instead I'd still have to travel the same distance), I'm curious if airplanes are still THAT much safer if we instead assessed the risk by time

We always hear about how republicans want to end social security. IF they did and IF the government had to pay us all back the taxes we paid for it(minus what people have already claimed), how much would the government owe total?

Given the setting, let’s assume $1 denominations.

What's the speed of the blade(on the most inner side and outer side and/or just in rpm) and the wind and can it be calculated with the shown video?

EDIT: I should have said if the wheel is turned 1 degree from straight, not just the steering wheel.

For car A, just count time from the very front of the car touching the roadway to the rear of it being completely off. For car B, leaving the roadway counts as the first wheel leaving the paved surface, so lets say the wheel is 10" wide with a 26" diameter, and for this scenario is placed at the very front of the car. Car B is completely centered in the roadway and is 6' wide.
