Request What is the minimum amount of chips a bingo player needs to bring?
Hey there. I run activities for a nursing home, and we have limited numbers of chips. I have to decide how many chips go in each players bag.
The bingo cards are 5x5, and often our patients will request to play on 2 cards simultaneously, but they only get 1 bag of chips.
While I could give every bag 50 chips to cover every possible combination, I was wondering how many they really need. If it makes the problem easier, we can assume they clear their cards every time someone calls Bingo

Request What is the smallest hole through which you can hear and understand a person speaking?
Okay, weird question, but it's for a story I'm writing.
Suppose you had a very thin, perfectly soundproof wall. What is the smallest (circular) hole you could put in the wall so that you could converse with someone on the other side?
Assumptions I'll grant so that the problem is (hopefully) actually solvable:
\- Let you and the person you are talking with each be \~20cm away from the hole in the wall.
\- You are talking at normal volume.
\- The ambient noise is fairly quiet, like, say this setup is outside in a field somewhere.
Approximations are fine. I'm looking more for an order of magnitude than an exact value.
I love math, so I'd normally do this sort of calculation myself, but I know next to nothing about the physics of sound.
