I'm a physics Geek.

 I have other interests besides physics that are basic geek knowledge (i.e coding, star trek Dr.who etc.) I plan to use this site for geeky conversations so message me if you have a question.

Question - If I have 13.2 liters of liquid with a specific gravity of 1.074 at 100 degrees C, how much ice (0 degree C) do I need to reduce the temperature to 20 C by the time the ice is fully melted?

Question -- If two twenty kiloton locomotives crash into each other at 95 km/hr in a head-on collision, and a 5 kg raccoon that was sitting on top of one of the locomotives is flung directly northwards towards a seagull traveling at 7 knots at a 23 degree angle to the raccoon's trajectory, what is the probability of a tertiary universe emerging at the precise moment that the raccoon and the seagull make eye contact?
