Beschreibung

Die aufmerksamen Nudel-Esser wissen, dass Spaghetti unter Spannung (z.B. beim Bau einer Spaghetti-Brücke) immer in mehr als zwei Teile brechen. Das Gleiche kann auch Stabhochspringern passieren (siehe Video unten). Warum ist das so ?

Es ist ein weiteres Beispiel wie angewandte Mathematik (unbemerkt) in unserem Alltag steckt.
