The Potato Paradox |

A farmer gathers 100kg of potatoes which consist of 99% water. He leaves them out in the sun and the water fraction decreases to 98%. What is the new weight of the potatoes? Would you believe us if we told you it was 50kg? That's HALF of the original weight! Watch our video to understand this paradox!

2%T=1 then T=50.

The important thing to note in this whole paradox is "Initial weight remains the same and every drying process keeps adding weight to it."

I'm less intelligent now than before i watched this. This is wrong ❌ in every way possible

Please elaborate

I don't know maybe your problem is like mine, because at first reading I understood like 1%of water evaporates, but it's not. It's become 98% of water so in this case it's really 50

​@@renatarossokha3119Isn't it 1% overall?
