| Dec 27, 2023 at 19:34 | comment | added | Anton Petrunin | @JW About matheducators.stackexchange.com: I might be wrong, but this question has more chances to be answered here --- one has to be professional mathematician to come up with questions of that type. | |

| Dec 27, 2023 at 7:34 | comment | added | peter | @Sam Hopkins: This is physics of cause, but: Yes. All children should understand the difference between mass and weight! Too bad many children are already influenced by people like the ones in this video ridiculing the right answer and manipulating the 'experiment'. | |

| Dec 26, 2023 at 17:01 | comment | added | quarague | While your first question to me feels like an excellent mathematical question I would see questions 2 and 3 as more physics than maths questions. | |

| Dec 26, 2023 at 13:28 | comment | added | Pablo H | The question about potatoes is an example of (IMHO) bad question, because it's too real. A kid with experience might answer "large ones take longer because they're harder to grasp", and an adult conversely "small potatoes are hard to grasp", or even "how small do you mean?". Or "when peeling with knife or with peeler". And so on. Neither having anything to do with surface. | |
