Index Wine/water mixing problem

In the wine/water mixing problem, one starts with two barrels, one holding wine and the other an equal volume of water. [1]

12 relations: Barrel, Computation, Conservation of mass, Cup (unit), David Singmaster, Lewis Carroll, Marble (toy), Red, W. W. Rouse Ball, Water, White, Wine.

Barrel

A barrel, cask, or tun is a hollow cylindrical container, traditionally made of wooden staves bound by wooden or metal hoops.

Computation

Computation is any type of calculation that includes both arithmetical and non-arithmetical steps and follows a well-defined model, for example an algorithm.

Conservation of mass

The law of conservation of mass or principle of mass conservation states that for any system closed to all transfers of matter and energy, the mass of the system must remain constant over time, as system's mass cannot change, so quantity cannot be added nor removed.

Water

Water is a transparent, tasteless, odorless, and nearly colorless chemical substance that is the main constituent of Earth's streams, lakes, and oceans, and the fluids of most living organisms.

White

White is the lightest color and is achromatic (having no hue), because it fully reflects and scatters all the visible wavelengths of light.
