Astrophysicist wraps up physics poll with self-corrected question

Original: RE: https:// mastodon.social/@franco_vazza/ 117491261301259160 The poll is over, and it was it seems a very easy one: 90

Astrophysicist Franco Vazza closed a physics quiz on Mastodon, reporting that 90% of respondents answered correctly. He admitted the final question was poorly worded: it should have read that insulators have I=0 only in static conditions, and said the high success rate partly reflected that mistake. Followers engaged with the result and the clarification in replies.

Why now: The author publicly acknowledged an error in his own quiz question, prompting discussion of the physics behind it.
