Slicing Apple Infinitely? Can We? - Deepstash

Slicing Apple Infinitely? Can We?

If an apple was divided continuously uncountably, divided continuously to infinity, then it’s infinite division of finite apple. Is it possible? No.

  • But the fact support it. Through observations, it only involves one apple. And splitting one apple infinitely, does not become as many as two apples. Still we are dealing with the same (one) apple.

Where is the discrepancy of the observation? It’s because we use the experiment not so deeply clear. We need closer enough the object that we imagine. We zoom in so closely, then we will see the lack of carefulness of our previous observations.
