Mind-Blowing Paradoxes

The Top 5 Mind-Blowing Paradoxes:

1) The Potato Paradox:

James brings 100 pounds of potatoes, which is 99 percent water (due to being completely mathematical potatoes). Then he leaves them out all night so that they have 98 percent water. What is their new weight? The amazing answer is 50 pounds.

After the evaporation of water, the remaining total volume,  x has 1 lb pure potato and (98/100) x water. Equation is created:

1+98/100x=x

1/50=x

which gives x=50.

2) The Crocodile Paradox:

In this paradox, a young boy takes the edge of a crocodile river. She promises to return her if her mother correctly guesses that she will or will not give the child back. Now, if mother feels that she will, then there is no issue - she guessed correctly and she returned the child, who was her intention.

If he guesses he will not do it, though ... there is a logic problem. If he intends and he has guessed incorrectly, he keeps that boy (which he was not originally intended), and if he did not intend, he would have to return the boy, Also goes against.

This contradiction is such an old argument that in the Middle Ages, the word "crocodile" was used for any brain-curved dilemma, where whatever you accept is used against you later.

3) Boy and Girl Paradox:

In a family with two children, one of whom is a boy, the other child is also a boy? It seems like a clear question - the chance of being a boy or a girl with every birth is essentially 50/50 - but it is not so. In two hair families, there are actually four possible brother combinations.

Two boys, two girls (whom we can eliminate), a big boy and a little girl, and an old girl and a little boy. Therefore, if we can safely finish 1 of the 4 options, then the probability of having another child is only 1/3, not 1/2.

4) The Court Paradox:

The court's paradox, also known as the rival of Youths, is a very old problem in rational argument from ancient Greece. It is said that the famous Sophist Protagoras took a student, Youths to understand that the students pay the progoros for their instructions after winning their first court case. After the directive, Youths did not decide to enter the profession of law, and Protagoras decided to sue Uthalus for the outstanding amount.

Protogoros argued that if he won the case he would have to pay his money. If Youths has won the case, Protogoras will still be paid according to the original contract, because Youths will have won their first case.

However, Youths claimed that if he won, he would not have to pay Protagoros by the court's decision. If, on the other hand, the Protagoras won, then Youths would still not have won a case and therefore would not be obliged to pay.

The question is: Which of the two men is right?

5) Galileo’s Paradox of the Infinite:

In the book of the 17th Century of Galileo, in two new science-related discoress and mathematical demonstrations, he believes that there should be more numbers than the numbers which are also complete squares. However, since each number of the class should have a positive number in the form of square squares, and each positive number has a uniform class, the number of numbers should be equal in each category. And infinity too

Yes, I said the number of numbers. Keep working on it - it can finally be understood.
