@@saaramb3452 you can prepare anti matter using particle accelerator.. but you need at least a gram of that antimatter to harness the energy for building the Dyson sphere around a star...let us a assuming that you want to build one of those several Dyson spheres around our very own sun... Then you need start recruiting at least half of our current world population as the labor force required for this project. Assuming that you are a very good public relations company and have recruited half of the world population for this horundus task, still you need atleast a gram of anti matter to use it as start off to provide you energy for this start up job, but our current particle accelerators at CERN can produce about 100,000 anti protons per day and each of these last an average of 10 seconds.. So a gram means ahh... Let's assume it to be hydrogen's anti protons for calculation purposes 1 mole of anti-Hydrogen is 2 grams that (because hydrogen exists as H2) which means 1 moles of anti-Hydrogen contains (6.023*10^23) anti hydrogens so 1 gram is (3.0115 *10^23) which requires you to prepare a particle accelerator that is as efficient as that it need to create 3.0115 *10^23 anti-protons( I m using the word proton instead of hydrogen because it doesn't matter hydrogen can be called a proton as it has has only one proton and we count the proton and neutron for mass number) so the particle accelerator should work at an efficient 3.0115 *10^17 times the one currently being available. So in plain word's if we have the materials we would have done that long ago, unfortunately we don't have the materials we require. A gram of anti matter costs around 62 trillion dollars which means you need to sell your country for that!

[@owenbechtel]

I am taking a Putnam exam prep seminar and this problem was on our homework for this week. I solved it a few days ago. My solution wasn't quite as elegant as the one in this video; I used a triple integral to find the average area of a spherical triangle, making use of a symmetry in the "area of a spherical triangle" function to avoid having to actually find a formula for it. In hindsight, I could have made use of even more symmetries (specifically, the fact that there are always seven other triangles that add up to the whole sphere), which is more or less what you did. My solution: When we choose three random points on a sphere, we get three random variables that we can use to calculate the triangle's area: θ₁ = angle along arc from point A to point B θ₂ = angle along arc from point A to point C ϕ = angle at point A between the two arcs All three variables are in the range [0, π]. They are independent with probability densities sin(θ₁)/2, sin(θ₂)/2, and 1/π. Let Area(θ₁, θ₂, ϕ) denote the area of a spherical triangle, where the area of the whole sphere is taken to be 1. Note that Area(θ₁, θ₂, ϕ) + Area(π - θ₁, π - θ₂, ϕ) = ϕ/2π, since together these two triangles fill up the region between two meridians ϕ radians apart. The average area of a spherical triangle is ∫ ∫ ∫ (sin(θ₁)/2) (sin(θ₂)/2) (1/π) Area(θ₁, θ₂, ϕ) dθ₁ dθ₂ dϕ = (1/4π) ∫ ∫ ∫ sin(θ₁) sin(θ₂) Area(θ₁, θ₂, ϕ) dθ₁ dθ₂ dϕ = (1/8π) ∫ ∫ ∫ (sin(θ₁) sin(θ₂) Area(θ₁, θ₂, ϕ) + sin(π - θ₁) sin(π - θ₂) Area(π - θ₁, π - θ₂, ϕ)) dθ₁ dθ₂ dϕ = (1/8π) ∫ ∫ ∫ sin(θ₁) sin(θ₂) (Area(θ₁, θ₂, ϕ) + Area(π - θ₁, π - θ₂, ϕ)) dθ₁ dθ₂ dϕ = (1/16π²) ∫ ∫ ∫ sin(θ₁) sin(θ₂) ϕ dθ₁ dθ₂ dϕ = (1/16π²) ∫ sin(θ₁) dθ₁ ∫ sin(θ₂) dθ₂ ∫ ϕ dϕ = (1/16π²) * 2 * 2 * (π²/2) = 1/8. (All of the integrals are from 0 to π.)

Anybody can solve them if they know the correct method - but nearly nobody does and there are so many problems and variations that can be given that no person can ever hope to come even close to remembering them all. hat is needed is the ability to come up with the solution on your own - and that is hard.

In 1D it would be 2 points "randomly" selected out of 2 points on a line, probability of 1/2 that it is the different point and the connecting line goes through the center. For 4D and above I think it's quite helpful to move away from the visual intuition and describe it formally, but it is still the visual intuition that was the key to the solution.

[@BurgoYT]

Yes good point and the 1D case would be very easy too, the probability that two random points on a line when connected contain the centre. Doesn’t matter which side of the centre the first point is on, the 2nd point just needs to be on the other, which is of course a 1/2 chance as you said!

@xxNewEraxx it requires 3 dimensional calculus, so unless you’ve taken advanced calculus of the type you only see in Engjneering or Mathematics majors in college, it isn’t that simple.

I did the problem with a square and it made it way simpler to do it with the circle! It’s really interesting because framing the question in a certain way makes it so that the shape of the object is almost arbitrary! I inscribed the circle in a square. I then divided it into 4 parts by the diagonals. Take an edge. That edge is 2 of the 3 points of your triangle. Now move the last point and note the area under which the middle is covered. That area should be only one of the 4 parts of the square that you cut using the diagonals. Using the same diagonals, you get 4 of these situations because there are 4 edges and each of them gives you 1/4. If you take a fresh square now and make 2 cuts that serve the same purpose as the diagonals in the other case, you’ll find that you have another set of 4 configurations that give you an average area of 1/4 because each set of 2 is mirrored. Since the circle is inscribed and we used areas we can use the same cuts for the circle and it still holds. If you do the same thing with a cube and make 4 cuts. You can do the same thing but you get 1/8. This shit is so cool

[@ChipterLP]

Heres a problem for you Taran, say if you have 104 keys on a keyboard, how many macros could you bind if you could press 10 buttons at once to make a shortcut.

[@TaranVH]

Answer: Nice try. Even if you could remember them all, it's impossible to accurately press down 10 arbitrary keys simultaneously. Even two keys simultaneously is a bad idea, unless one of them is a modifier key. If it's macros you're after, a secondary keyboard is the way to go. In that case, more than one modifier key at a time is usually inefficient. Also, WIN and ALT are dangerous under most circumstances. Therefore, only CTRL and SHIFT remain. Therefore, the most macros you can safely get out of a 104-key keyboard is: 104 - 8 modifier keys x 3 (CTRL, SHIFT, and unmodified) = 288 macros. 384 If you include the double-tapping of a single key. (Tapdancing) Of course, it's easier just to add another keyboard rather than use modifiers in this way, which is, of course, why I have 3 keyboards and counting. Yeah, totally took the bait on that one.

in 1D, the 'circle' is a line segment. Imagining point A is fixed, point B could be closer to the center or closer to point A. if B is closer to point A, the center is not contained. if its closer to the center, it is contained. since B could be on either side of the center, and the center splits the line segment into 2 equal pieces, the odds are 1 in 2. This aligns with the pattern found in the 2D and 3D cases, where the probability is 1/2^D where D is the dimension.

My take on the problem at the end of the video: Each person will have two people adjacent to them. They have a 50% chance of not being cheated off of from each, so you multiply 0.5 by 0.5. That means each student will have a 1/4 chance of not being cheated off of from both. Multiply that by 8, then the expected number would be 2.

[@AaronRichardsMusic]

Now to take it one step further, what is the probability that those 2 students will not end up not being cheated on as opposed to any other possible answer.

[@iamthinking2252_]

huh, all I got was that for 3 students... let's say student 1 looks at student 2 - If student 2 looks at student 1 (1/2 all cases), then student 3 will never be cheated off (expected number 1) - If student 2 looks at student 3 (1/2 all cases), student 3 looking back at s2 means s1 never cheated off (1/4 all cases) - s3 looking at s1 means everybody spied on. 3/4 chance of having 1 student spied on, expected is 75% for 3 students. Can't have 2 students not spied off, as who can the third student spy on (nobody)

[@wren_.]

i got 1.2. first, I drew out all the points in a little octagon and randomly selected a few to circle. I reasoned that you can’t have three people circled in a row, because then the person in the middle isn’t able to spy on anyone. this means that you cannot have 5 people not being spied on, since somewhere on that octagon, there will have to be a group of 3. two circled people in a row is allowed though, meaning you cannot have any more than 4 people not getting spied on. that means that there are five possible cases. One where everyone is being spied on, one where one person is not, one where two people are not, one where three people aren’t, and one where 4 people aren’t being spied on. taking the average of all five of those possibilities gets you 1.2, or basically one. therefore, the expected amount of people not getting cheated on is one.

[@holo23]

2 is correct. You can express this in mathematical terms by saying X_i is the indicator random variable that the ith student has no one spying on him, with the distribution Bern(1/4). Then E(X) = E(X_1 + X_2 + ... + X_8) = 8E(X_1) by linearity, therefore 8/4 is 2. Anyone that has a little bit of probability theory knowledge can solve this. However, that wouldn't be fun, as the video specifically stated that shifts in perspective is what makes solutions elegant.

[@riccardosarti3234]

@@wren_. I'm afraid you're doing it wrong... each of the cases that you calculate can appear in different ways, that also need to be calculated if you want to procede this way. For example, if A1...A8 are the eight students, there are 4 ways that exactly 4 students are not spied on (which is the number of ways to choose 2 pairs of adjacent students - the not spied on - and the other 2 pairs of adjacent students - the spied on, i.e. not spied on: (A1, A2, A5, A6), (A2, A3, A6, A7), (A3, A4, A7, A8), (A4, A5, A8, A1)). Note that this was a simple case, because once you choose the spied and not spied students, all the graph is automatically determined, but in the case of 3 not spied on students, you have some freedom in selecting how the students are lookin at the others... Briefly, this way of calculating is insane and definitely not the elegant way suggested by 3b1b! See other comments that prove why 2 is the expected number (each student has a priori probability of 1/4 of not being spied, thus on average you expect 1/4*8=2 students. Try with 3 and 4 students by listing out all the possible 8 and 16 cases respectively and you'll be more convinced!

Now, for every such ∆ABC, there exist three triangles named BDC, AEC and AFB and they are uniquely attached to this triangle ABC there is no way you can get the same three triangles with different such center containing triangle Hence there are three no center containing triangles for every center containing triangle so probability should be 1/4

Before coming across 3Blue1Brown, I never knew just how much simple intuition could be transmitted by one man to an incredibly large audience.

I figured it out before he introduced the 2 dimension example. All points of the sphere are equal and so the average of random distribution cuts the sphere in half 3 times over, the same likelihood as 3 heads in a row. Doesn't work with 5 points unless working in 4 dimensions, dividing each vector of the dimensions, which is 1/16th or 4 heads in a row. I don't have a high school education.
