Simulation - Imagining
Now we simulate the division to an apple by itself, is it possible?
- No: because the apple is tightly wrapped, so there is no cavity / space that separates the apple.
- Yes, you can: this means that the wrapper will tear, because each division will leave space between an apple. From this, it is clear that infinite division involves an expansion from the original size (calculated from the most left side of the apple to the most right side of the apple). So? It is impossible for infinite as part of division finite.
