I am sorry for my comment especially for those it might annoy. I am Igbo, but I have no respect for the gang of officers that plotted the first coup of 1966 in Nigeria. These officers brought the most difficult times to all Igbo people, they brought disunity to Igbo, they increased the savagery that is in Igbo land today; this savagery has led to lots of corruption in the Igbo society, no respect for achievement anymore, only money talks.

Ifeajuna, Nzeogwu, et al, should only be remembered for their deeds and not exonerated to saints.

anitank: If they were all labelled incorrectly, the fewest number of marbles u can pick is TWO.

For those of you saying it's just one marble, if you choose a black marble B from the box labeled white W, how would you be sure since the box could contain all black marbles BB or black and white marbles BW

You will have to choose two marbles from the same box to ascertain the contents of the remaining boxes
try choosing a marble from the box labeled WB, then you can deduce the rest without taking another pick.

1 ball only.



Let the incorrectly labeled boxes be WW, BB, WB. Since the boxes are labeled incorrectly, then WB contains 2W or 2B, WW and BB can contain 1W1B or two balls of the same colour. Consequently, we pick one ball from WB only.



If we pick a black ball from WB, then WB contains 2B, WW contains 1W1B and BB contains 2W.
However, if we pick a white ball from WB, then WB contains 2W, WW contains 2B and BB contains 1W1B.

all4naija: Blahblahblah...You still didn't get it. You are explaining something else which I don't disagree with. Stop talking about Ohms here because it is used in the level of circuitry. I would rather you use ampere the SI unit of current. Please, you aren't doing yourself any good by running around with some jargon to pass your message across.

The reason why I talked about insulator as regard the bird not electrocuted, although, is not all the story on the reason why, there is no disagreement with your explanation of somebody not electrocuted because they are not grounded. That is a complete fact of conduction. The glove is a reference to buttress the scales(as insulator) on the legs of the bird. Though every insulator has a break point. This helps us to understand that glasses, ceramic, etc being good insulators still break down at some point relative or proportionate to the electric current.

All I am saying is that the scale is a potential indicator for the bird not be electrocuted even when grounded because it act as insulator.While it is clear the directional flow is the major cause as the bird only perches with both feet on the same line of current.

You are possibly begging the question by pointing to the ladder because that is what I state with the glove, it act as inhibitor to the current flow through the PHCN worker to the ground and that can be deadly. It is just the same thing with different point of views.

You aren't saying something new. Ferromagnetic always keeps constant magnetic field and therefore taking a magnet close to it can be dangerous because it can respond(the atoms) quickly to it. You are taking my explanation for something else. You aren't making more sense of what I am talking about as regard witches possibly turning into the snakes or devil's work as people want us to have it. It could as well be there is no current on the power grid or what I stated earlier is the main consequence of the snakes not electrocuted. They can as well get as insulator can break down at any given point as regarding the scales on the snakes body.

However, I would like you to explain to us why you think the snakes were not electrocuted despite they tangle on both positive and negative flow of current on the electric cables.

Thank you.
no need to waste my time here.
Science/TechnologyRe: Snakes Tangled In Electric Wires In Benin City (Pictures) by saintneo(m): 11:44pm On Jul 03, 2014
all4naija: I understand what you are talking about. But the scales on the legs of birds act as insulators. If you place a bird feet on different electric flows at the same time it will not have effect on it just as the way it does with it on the electricity cable because of insulated legs(scales). You haven't try such test yet come here to mouth. Why do power workers and engineer wear gloves as insulators? That is what I am trying to explain to you. If the part of the bird that is not insulated touches the other flow there is going to be likely electrocution. Mind the term 'insulator' in my previous comment. If I have gloves on my both hands and I touch both flows I won't be electrocuted even when I am grounded
Like I have said you are a child at this, stop trying to hard to prove a gladiator wrong in his arena. It will be good if you go and study this well.

Current selects a part of least resistance, if there 0.001ohm on a cable and 10,000ohm on the scales of a bird, the current will definitely choose to flow via the cable. I'll give you an experiment, stand on a huge dry wood or dry rubber at least 6inch from the floor so as to isolate you from the earth, do not make contact with anything that links you to the earth(walls, ceiling, etc) then touch a LIVE wire, I can assure that you will not feel anything.

The PHCN workers wear gloves because their body is connected to the earth via the ladder, the electric pole, etc; if there were no gloves then the current will flow via their body to earth(almighty sink), thus electrocuting them.

Now lemme give you a surprise. Do you know that you can get yourself electrocuted by bringing a magnet close to a switch made of a ferro-magnetic material? Yes, I realised this the day stupidly took magnet close to a tumble-switch......na run I run. That's electrocution by induction no contact involved absolutely. Imagine standing between to 330kV lines without touching them, my God if those lines are not well spaced you will be in for a fry. Your body, the air insulation will breakdown, forming a streak of light like lightening(corona discharge) thus creating a conductive part to make you meet God in a flash.

Try searching for videos on YouTube for men working on high-tension lines and you will be amazed.

all4naija: Bwahaha... Did you just write this to make sense of what you don't know? If you are talking about the breaking point of resistance of the scales on the snakes body then you aren't sincere with yourself, when we know those cables aren't capable of carrying ultra-high power you are alluding to here.

Haven't you read about scales on reptiles before? The scales on the bird legs is the same reason why they don't get electrocuted by power lines. Please, go and do some research before you start exercising your ignorance here.
You are an amateur in the field or perhaps below. Kindly go and learn how electricity works so as to keep yourself out of danger.

Birds don't get electrocuted because they perch on a single line which has a potential of 0V(zero volts) when measured against itself; thus, there is no danger involved. Those snakes are not coiled on a single line, they are coiled across multiple lines with different potentials with respect to on another and that is dangerous.

Science/TechnologyRe: Snakes Tangled In Electric Wires In Benin City (Pictures) by saintneo(m): 4:00pm On Jul 03, 2014
all4naija: The possible way a snake can be electrocuted is by grabbing the power cable with the mouth as it glides through it with their body coiled around it. That is, as it tries to move forward the mouth might be used as a support to hold on to the cable and through process it can easily get electrocuted because there is no scale on the snake's mouth(snakes mouth is usually wet to say the least).
Scales or no scales, electricity has a way of moving from one point to another. If the scales are able to block the line voltage (415V if NEPA supply beta power) then they must be lucky snakes. But I can assure you that if those snakes made it across a high-tension of 33kV or above, they will be turned KFS(Kentucky Fried Snakes).

Complete what tenure? Didn't he rule for four years? Is four years no longer the legal tenure for governors? These politicians should learn how to speak legal English before venturing into politics.
If a foreigner were to hear this, it will appear as if he was removed from office via impeachment or coup.
If Ohakim wishes to contest for the Governor of Imo state let him declare his intentions and stop trying to blackmail the people.
