Entanglement Trivia: Answer 4

In the classic thought experiment, the EPR paper proposes that if you were to:

1. A) Measure the spin of one particle, you'd instantly know the spin of the other.
2. B) Measure the spin of one particle, you'd somehow magically influence the spin of the other.
3. C) Measure the spin of one particle, and it would somehow instantly affect the spin of the other, but only if you're wearing a fedora.
4. D) Create a paradox that would require a PhD in quantum mechanics to understand.

Answer: D)

Explanation: Measuring the spin of one particle would create a paradox so profound, it would require a PhD in quantum mechanics to even begin to understand. In fact, you'd need to consult with at least 5 specialists in quantum mechanics, and they'd all have to wear matching fedoras.
