      @SeanPat1001 Рік тому +2

      I would wait 3.5 hours. Saying that the poison would take affect in 10 hours is probably an average with some variation. Using an interval of 3.5 hours would reduce the risk due to the variation in the time until the poison takes effect. The third bottle would be administered at 10.5 hours, giving me a safety margin of 3.5 hours until 24 hours for the third bottle.

      Lol. you're just being asked to think logically here... No poison in the world is like an ON-OFF switch that'll exactly kill you in 10 hours while remaining without any symptoms till 9 hr 59 min. You can also simply say I'll just feed a sample and look at symptoms after a few hours.. But this is not the real world, what's being tested is your logical thinking. 1 hr isn't arbitrary, that's the smallest unit of time here that can be measured.

      The question is sculpted to create comfortable imagery in what is the wrong direction (milk, rat). These are distractions in the question meant to allure you away from logic. It's a nice question but it's presented in an overly pacified manner for me. The answer is too obvious because of the lack of constants. There is only one constant, the amount of time it takes for the poison to take effect. Then one control, the amount of time you have to hypothetically use these resources to solve the problem. What is the most efficient way to recognize this, statement. This is the underlying purpose of logical deduction in complex ways but only two ways. This question is structured in an abductive nature but asks the reader to solve it using any logic they wish. All in all, its a nice entry level critical thinking problem.

    I did the same solution, except with a bit more spacing (0, 5, and 10 hrs for feeding the first 3 samples). I know the problem says EXACTLY 10 hours but I'm a biochemist... and no poison is THAT exact. Spacing the samples out allows for more variability in the actual duration between dosing and death, and still gives plenty of time to identify the poisoned bottle.

    @grahck4391 3 роки тому +2

    One addendum I would make to the solution. If rat is alive after hour 10, begin drinking the first bottle then. Then repeat at the other hour intervals, provided the rat survives. If he dies, just skip that bottle and drink the others. This further optimizes the solution because the last part of the riddle is to drink three bottles of milk. Also, if someone is hungry, there's no way anyone would simply let a perfectly fine bottle of milk just sit there, especially if he knows it's safe after having tested it.

  • @cmilkau
    @cmilkau 4 роки тому +28

    You should mention whether you can detect a poisonous sample without killing the rat. There is a strategy that needs only two sampling rounds (half the remaining bottles each time). Also, it is important to know how exact the 10 hour mark is, is it an exact minimum or exact maximum or an estimate with little error. One strategy only works if the 10 hours are a good estimate with limited variation up or down (feeding samples at intervals less than 10h and measure the time when effects kick in)

    Hour 3 feed the rat bottle four.
    You will have the answer when you time 10 hours after each feeding which will tell you the poisonous bottle. Mathematically you should have an answer in 13 hours.

      Logically there’s no need for a safety buffer if the riddle tells you exactly 10 hours. And if you’re suppose to figure in a buffer, just test a bottle at the start (0 hr), 6.25 hr mark, and 13.5 hr mark. The 4th bottle doesn’t need to be tested because if the rat is alive after 23.5 hours, you know it’s the poisonous one. And you’ll have 30 minute buffer for the 3rd bottle and time to drink.

    I thought of this:
    - Pour 2 bottles of milk in the first hour (since the poison takes effect after 10 hours). It'll have 50% chance that the poisoned bottle is there.
    The outcome:
    1. If the rat dies when the time comes(0-10h), that means one of the bottle is the poisoned one.
    -Do the same thing, but take one bottle since you have 14h left.
    -In the next 4 hours you have time to drink other bottles :D
    2. If the rat doesn't die, do the same thing for the bottles you didn't choose. but pour only one bottle.

    If in starting case, if rat died then it means that remaining 2 bottles are not poisoned and now you can drink milk from those remaining bottle .
    And now again you have 14 hours remaining so you can check non poisoned bottle (which were selected at first)

  • @justjeff386
    @justjeff386 Рік тому

    This solution is most efficient with time. But if you need to ensure the maximum amount of milk remaining, you can use more time by feeding once at 0 and if the rat doesn't die at hour 10 then test second bottle, wait an hour test third bottle. That way you may only end up testing one bottle thereby having 3 full bottles to drink. Yes, this doesn't make a HUGE difference but when you're going to die if you don't drink all three clean bottles of milk, I would think test amounts would be consequential.

    Feed the rat from 2 bottles to start--one feeding an hour earlier than the other. If nothing happens after 11hrs, then one of the two remaining bottles is poisoned. If the rat dies within 11hrs, one of the 1st two bottles is poisoned (and you can drink the other 2).
    Nothing happens: Feed the rat from 1 of the last 2 bottles. If it lives, the last remaining bottle is poisoned. If it dies, the bottle you just fed it from is poisoned. You now know which three are good to drink.
    The rat dies in the first try: You drink the other 2 bottles that haven't been tested, and--based on whether the rat dies at the 10hr or 11hr mark, you drink the opposite bottle from what killed the rat exactly 10hrs after it drank from it.

If not fine on 1 and 2, feed just one of them, by feeding say 1 and fine must be 2, vice versa. By the 20th hour you have the solution to consume the bottles before 24h

  • @clodgozon3968

    In order to distinguish which bottle carries the poison, mark each bottle respectively with numbers ranging from one to three. With the given time of interval, two hours, for instance, the rat should drink a bottle of milk.
    For example, the rat had drunk the first one at 5:00 AM, the second one at 7:00 AM, and the third one at 9:00 AM. We couldn tell that the first bottle contained the poison if the rat died at 3:00 PM.

    Another way I see being able to do this is to do a mixture of bottle 1 and 2 for the first ten hours (slight delay before rat is fed bottle 2). Then a mixture of bottle 3 and 2. If the rat dies during the first ten hours you know bottle 3 and 4 are okay. And based off when it dies then you know which of the bottles from the mixture is bad. If it dies during the time of the second mixture then that means bottle 3 must be the bad one. And obv if it doesn’t die at all then it’s bottle 4 that is poisonous

    Say it dies: 1 or 2 is poisonous.
    Give the rat a sample from bottle 1. If it dies after 10hrs (in total 20), 1 is poisonous, if not, then 2 is.
    If the rat didn't die after the first 10hrs, you give it sample 3. If it dies, 3 is poisonous, if not, it's 4.

      Same... Then realised 6 hour delay is even better optimised, as poison won't be that precise and want to minimise overlap of error bars. Solution in video "wrong" because we wouldn't know how to interpret rat dying at 10:30.

    I have a question ❓
    If it happens as it showed like last bottle is poison and how can a man drink milk ? Still he will die because he has only 2 options 1 is either drink last poisoned milk or die from hunger because he said he had 24 hours if he doesn't drink he will die

    Answer can be these too : what if I test two bottles let's say 1st and 2th at starting , now if rat dies one of these two bottles is poisonous ( so I can drink 3rd and 4th) and I have still 14 hours to test which bottle is poisonous ( 1st or 2 nd). And if rat doesn't die when 1st and 2nd bottles are tested ( it means 1st and 2nd are non poisonous) and then you have enough time to test 3rd and 4th bottle

      And what will u do u have time, bt no rat for testing..

    There is an alternative that is also easy and is the only alternative if one is constrained to only 2 rats or rat feedings. At time 0 feed a mixture of bottles 1 and 2. At the 10 hr mark you can drink either the 2 test bottles or the 2 non-test bottles based on results from the initial test. Of the pair of bottles with the poison one, pick one and feed to rat. After 10 hrs select the remaining one to drink

  • @lucaspulsar

    I don’t understand why mixing different bottles of milk doesn’t feet?
    For example, you mix milk from bottles #1 and #2, and give this mixture to rat. Wait for 10 hours, if rat don’t die, that means that poison isn’t in bottles #1 and #2. Then, for example, you give a milk from bottle #3. Wait 10 hours, if rat die - poison was in bottle #3, if not - you can say for sure, that the poison is in bottle #4.

    Thats not an optinized solution either. You can still decrease the duration between the samples. Assuming the accuracy of effect of poison tends to infinity, then the time gap between the samples could be --->0

      This doesn’t work, if one of the first two bottles is poisoned, the rat will die and you will not know which bottle killed it. This solutions requires chance, the correct solution does not.

    Or this:
    Weigh all bottles on a balance scale. The one with poison will weigh different than the rest.
    Or this:
    Feed 2 bottles to the rat. If he lives you get to drink 2 bottles and then a 3rd in the 29th hour.
    If after feeding 2 bottles to the rat and he dies, then you know you have 2 that are safe to drink and potentially a 3rd unknown. The good milk is going to spoil faster than the poisonous one so you’d drink 2 bottles of milk and 1 of yogurt lol
