What if we just sent it into the sun?
Full on Broly style.

The idea certainly has potential.

 

[Noipoi]

To all of you saying you'd launch the penny into space: While that doesn't completely solve the problem, it does give more time to figure out a more permanent solution, so I'll give you points for that.

Does it have the properties of a normal penny?

If so, just shoot it into the sun. It'll melt.

>Tfw no Faygo awake to tell us he would shove the penny up Thanos' butthole.

Do this. Send a Rocket to get it into space, and then nuke it to send it flying into the sun. The sun would disintegrate it faster than it could grow.

Humanity wins 8/10, with the 2/10 for the Penny being if NASA can't get their **** together in time or if another country interferes for some reason.

 

[PeridotGX]

But then you just have two halves that grow in size every day. You've doubled the problem and now have half as much time to solve it.

okay then, I ask Phil Swift to melt it into it's chemical components. Either a: since it is no longer a penny, it stops growing, or b: I just proved some major scientific laws wrong, so I could likely fund a mission to send most of it to space. Scientests can keep some for studies.

why couldn't you just let me do "funny" meme.

wait hold up, is a penny meltable?

Everything melts when it gets hot enough.

 

[Swamp Sensei]

Btw, last night you guys said you were kind of interested in my X Rotation playthrough.

I'm at the first gym and currently this is my team.

This is just a start. Many more will join them.

I wanted to use Pokemon I've never used before and I'm just picking Pokemon I think are cool and Pokemon that seem fun to use.

Any questions?

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

A penny is made of metal.

Metal can be melted if it is heated.

So a penny can be melted if it is heated.

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Everything melts when it gets hot enough.

So if we melt the penny, does the molten copper no grow in size?

 

[PLATINUM7]

If you launch it so it reaches enough velocity to leave the solar system and eventually the galaxy, it'll be travelling through infinite space which can deal with it infinitely doubling.

So a penny can be melted if it is heated.

Clearly this penny isn't operating under natural penny laws. I say we try to exorcise it and see how well that goes.

 

[PsySmasher]

Yes, all metals are meltable.

Whatever temperature that is depends on the metal's... melting point.

SO HOW ABOUT YOU EXPLAIN WHY ME SERIOUS WRITEUP ISN'T GONNA WORK NONE!

Not all of them. You can't melt paper.

 

[Deleted member]

I would have gone to sleep, but the DLC soundtrack was too good for me.

 

[DaybreakHorizon]

Not all of them. You can't melt paper.

You can burn it to ash though.

That's pretty similar.

 

[Hinata]

I considered making a clause that "the penny also cannot be destroyed", but that got rid of, like, 90% of the answers.

not with that attitude, anyways

 

[Zinith]

Is it the molecular components what makes the penny double in size or does the object have to be in a certain state for it to expand. If the former, than melting it would still only make the various components expand even it's no longer copper or even in a solid state.

Either way, Yoshi stomach is the way to go

What is "Pokemon Rotation"?

 

[PLATINUM7]

Some things undergo sublimation, which skips the liquid phase and goes straight into a gas.

For the sake of the argument, let's say the penny doubles in size only when it is still recognizable as a penny.

Then it'll expand until Yoshi explodes from the inside, last i checked copper doesn't get melted my stomach acids.

 

[PLATINUM7]

For the sake of the argument, let's say the penny doubles in size only when it is still recognizable as a penny.

So if it's only observed by people who've never seen a penny, does it stop doubling in size?

 

[Opossum]

What is "Pokemon Rotation"?

Correct. Now it's your turn to pick a category.

 

[Pyra]

Here's a question for you.

Say you had a penny that doubled in size every day. Eventually, this penny would obviously grow to a point where it got too big for the Earth to handle it.

The question is, what would you do to or with the penny to prevent such a scenario from happening?

this post brought to you by: it's almost 1 am and i'm runnin on very little sleep so i'm delirious

Low earth orbit is 2000km
The diameter of a penny is about 19.05 mm or 0.0001905 km
0.0001905 * 2^x = 2000
2^x =~ 10498687.66
Log2(10498687.66) = ~23.32

So it would take 23.32 days for it to reach low earth orbit, if rested on its edge. Hopefully my sleepy half deluded mathematics isn’t wrong but it almost certainly is lol

Of course, it would get “too big” before then, so maaaaaybe take away like, 5 days. So, 18 days to figure out what to do with it

The answer, obviously, is to put it in Thanos’s asshole

 

[Hinata]

So if it's only observed by people who've never seen a penny, does it stop doubling in size?

By "recognizable as a penny", I mean recognizable as a concept.

Even if nobody on Earth recognized it as such, it is still a penny, and thus would continue to double in size.

I would find a way to destroy it. I would put it under extreme heat and pressure.

*throws papers off my desk*

****, MY RESEARCH!
no wait, So meltinv it down will work

Present your research anyway.

 

[Zinith]

Okay, then it seems to be relatively easy to take care of. Just melt it...

Then it'll expand until Yoshi explodes from the inside, last i checked copper doesn't get melted my stomach acids.

I should remind you that depending on the game, Yoshi can just eat thingss endlessly without it affecting his size (implying hammerspace), or they get turned into different properties (Star Bits, Power Moons, etc.)

 

[osby]

ONE OF THEM IS A CHEMICAL REACTION, WHILE THE OTHER IS A PHYSICAL CHANGE OF PHASE, THEY ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

 

[Deleted member]

I have even more questions.

Okay, good night for real!

 

[Idon]

ONE OF THEM IS A CHEMICAL REACTION, WHILE THE OTHER IS A PHYSICAL CHANGE OF PHASE, THEY ARE COMPLETELY DIFFERENT.

But fire tho

 

[Hinata]

Okay, hard mode: Assume the penny cannot be destroyed. No matter what you do to this thing, it will still be a full, intact penny, and thus will continue to double in size.

What do you do then?

 

[Pyra]

Not all of them. You can't melt paper.

Not with that attitude

 

[Professor Pumpkaboo]

Present your research anyway.

So as molten copper, it cant be recognizable as a penny because its melted, right?
Unless it still grows because "That molten copper used to be the penny that grows"
