What should you do if the vase is broken?
Most people’s approach is to throw away the pieces! So! , is there any pattern here? Yes! After arranging the fragments by size and weighing them, you will find: 10-100 grams is the least, 1-10 grams is slightly more, 0.1-1 grams and less than 0.1 grams Most! What is particularly interesting is that there is a strict multiple relationship between the weights of these fragments: the weight ratio of the largest fragment to the next largest fragment is 16:1. The weight ratio of the next largest fragment to the medium fragment is 16:1, the weight ratio of the medium fragment to the smaller fragment is 16:1, and the weight ratio of the smaller fragment to the smallest fragment is also 16:1. Therefore, those who discovered this doubling relationship used this rule in archeology or celestial research. That is, as long as this rule exists, the original state of known cultural relics and meteorite fragments can be inferred, thereby quickly restoring their original appearance! This is the power of thinking! This smart man is the Danish scientist Jacob Boer.
Enlightenment: We must have had the experience of accidentally breaking a vase, but when the rules contained therein naughtily slipped away from us, have we embraced it? A broken vase does not mean What's terrible, what's terrible is that if we are not careful, our intelligence and thinking will be shattered!
