Researchers Put “Silly Sprinklers” in Reverse to Further Unravel Decades-Old Physics Puzzle
Breakthrough spouts new experimental answer to long-standing Feynman’s Sprinkler Problem
Richard Feynman’s 50-Year-Old 'Restaurant Problem' Finally Decoded. It Shows Why People Settle for Good Enough
The restaurant problem reveals why human shortcuts can work surprisingly well.
Researchers Claim to Have Solved the Perplexing ‘Reverse Sprinkler’ Problem
Scientists have argued over the question since 1883.
Scientists uncover Feynman’s formula for finding best holiday restaurant
Late physicist turned issue of when to stop searching for a better place to eat into mathematical problem
Scientists used children’s ‘silly sprinklers’ to solve a physics problem Richard Feynman could not; the reverse version spins 50 times slower
If you’ve ever watched a “silly sprinkler” in action (those bright, looping contraptions that twist and spray water in wild patterns) you’ve probably just seen them as summer fun. But a group of mathematicians have turned these backyard toys into tools for solving a famous physics puzzle that stumped even Nobel Prize–winning physicist Richard Feynman.
Science history: Richard Feynman gives a fun little lecture — and dreams up an entirely new field of physics
In a short talk at Caltech, physicist Richard Feynman laid out a vision of manipulating and controlling atoms at the tiniest scale. It would precede the field of nanotechnology by decades.
The math of choosing a restaurant meal is revealed in Richard Feynman’s notes
Physicist Richard Feynman turned a lunch dilemma into a math problem. Researchers finally cracked his notes and found people approximate his solution on their own.
