Why do earphones get tangled?

Why do earphones get tangled?

How to tie the strongest knot ever? Put earphones in your pocket and wait one minute.

My GOD this is the worst thing that happens! But it has a pretty simple(VERY COMPLEX) reason. Knot Theory. To save you from understanding that wiki article, putting it simply a string/chord/earphone etc. has only one way to stay straight but an infinitely many ways to get tangled. There are so many of them that you could go by your entire life and still not see the same type of tangling.

Since every point on a string can be a point of contact which equals a point of tangling that string can be entangled in so many unfathomable ways. What makes it even more complex it that Chaos Theory also plays a Major role here. Even the slightest disturbance can increase the temperature of the system by a fraction of a degree thus lengthening the string making it have even more contact points and since points are infinitesimally small it leads to a whole bunch of craziness which includes tangling and you spending the next few minutes untangling. 

There are 2 critical factors for tangling 1) Length of the string . 2)Agitation Time. Other minor factors include Rigidity and Diameter but in most cases earphones have the same dimensions.

Researches also found out that the chances of a string getting tangled are dramatically more if the string measures to be 46cm to 150 cm. Typical earphones are in the range of length too (around 130- 146 cm). Furthermore the "Y" shape of earphone chord also does contribute to the tangling of earphones. 

However I guess material matters too. Earphones like those which have their outers made of a cloth are less likely to tangle.

Amazing Facts to blow your Mind! #5

1) When  a massive power outage struck Southern California in the 1990's, mass panic began and people called 911 as they were seeing weird clouds in the sky, which was actually The Milky way seen without all the light pollution!

2) There is an Austrailian shrub plant called the "Suicide Plant". This plant is notoriously famous for the effect it has on people after they touch it which is suicide. Its leaf has a compound that causes an agonizing sting that can last upto 5 years after touching it!

3) Butt is a medival unit of measurement for wine! A butt load is equavalent to 129 Gallons!

4) Arsol, Bastardane, Crapinon, Constipatic Acid, Uranate, BARF, catP, Vomitoxin, Magic Acid, Moronic Acid, Titanic acid, Diabolic Acid, Fartox and many more( Click Here For more names) are all real chemical compound names!

5) Current CEO of Youtube Susan Wojcicki, was the woman who rented out her garage in 1998 for Larry Paige and Sergey Brin while they were creating Google!

6)Your body Burns more calories sleeping than doing nothing while awake!

7)Your Eyebrows renew themselves every 64 days!

8) Humpback whales often allow dolphins for a ride on their backs for the fun of it!

9) First Ever Storage of Google was Made of Lego because they needed about 40 GB storage for the working of Search Engine Algorithm but the biggest Hard Disk was of 4GB in size so they had to assemble 10 hard Drives to make one of 40 GB.

10) The First Tweet of Google was “I’m 01100110 01100101 01100101 01101100 01101001 01101110 01100111 00100000 01101100 01110101 01100011 01101011 01111001 00001010.” Which meant I’m Feeling Lucky in Binary.

11) Due to tidal friction from the sun and moon, the solar day is lengthening by 1.7 milliseconds each century as the Earth’s rotation slows down.

12) In 140 million years, a day on Earth is expected to last 25 hours.

13) From 2005 to 2007, researchers have found that more trees in the neighbourhood= Less crimes!

14) Handshakes were originally meant for check whether the person you were meeting was carrying a concealed weapon!

15) The concept of Rap Battles has existed since the 5th Centuary! Poets would often engage in "Flyting", a spoke word or event where the poets would insult each other!

1 = 1+1?

So I did the math and last I checked 1+1=2. So how the heck is 1=1+1?

Simply put its the Banarch-Tarski paradox which says: if you take an object and split it into, lets say 7 pieces and rearrange them in such a manner that you get the original object along with a new out of nowhere.

If you really want to find out more about this really sort of complex theorem I would highly suggest Vsauce as I donot have the ability to explain this clearly. Here are some helpful links:

Weirdest Stars in the Universe!

 Stars!

1) There exists a star about 50 light years away from Earth called BPM 37093 . This star is mainly made up of Carbon and Oxygen like all other White dwarf's, but what is unique about the star is that about 32-82% of the core has crystalized making the star a giant DIAMOND of 10 billion trillion trillion carats! The star was named Lucy after the song by the Beatles, "Lucy in the sky with Diamonds".

2) The fifth brightest star in the sky called as Vega is actually Egg shaped! Due to its hight rotation speeds of 263.2 km/s (163.54 miles/s) Vega actually bulges out at the center much like the Earth does! And thats not it, Its poles are significantly more brighter than the equator of the star!

3) Well this one should be called Star-ception!

   

HV 2112 is actually a pretty canabalistic star! Inside of the core of this red giant is a neutron star!

This star actually confirms the existence of  Thorne-Zytkow objects, which basically means a Neutron star inside a Red Giant. Well this is pretty huge. Just putting a Red Giant in the center of the solar system would make is surface extened out to the orbit of Mars. Neutron stars on the otherhand are unfathomably heavy. Just a hundredth of a teaspoon would weigh 40 Million Tons! Due to is weird makeup this star will also produce more heavier elements like Lead and even Transuranic ones too.

4) MY Camelopardalis is a binary star system. This star is actually not one but two stars just kilometers apart! The estimated orbital velocities of this binary system is 1,000,000 km/h (620,000 miles/h). Scientists predict that when these two stars collide they either may cause a SUPER-SUPER massive supernova or they may combine to form another giant star!

Well Thats it for this time! Hope you guys enjoyed reading this and tell me if you like this new format! Want to suggest a topic? Leave it in the comments below!
