What precisely is an angle??

The problem is that defining an angle correctly requires calculus. This is a point implicit in Archimedes’ derivation of the length of the circumference of a circle, using an infinite sequence of successively refined approximations with regular polygons. It is also supported by the fact that The Elements [Euclid] does not try to measure angles, with the exception of right angles and some related special cases. Further evidence can be found in the universal reluctance of traditional texts to spell out a clear definition of this supposedly ‘basic’ concept

What is the precise point when quantum mechanics becomes Newtonian mechanics?

will science eventually be abandoned, particularly physics and the standard model, after decades of non sensical and contradictory results?

It's trivial .

Couldn't we shrink the size of an audio file without impacting the actual sound too much by taking the Fourier transform and eliminating frequencies with low amplitudes?

If you claim to have free will, I'll ask you to explain how you make a decision.

If you can answer this question by telling me a decision making procedure/algorithm then your decision was deterministic and hence not free.

If you cannot explain how you made a decision, then you obviously had no control over it.

Does this disprove free will? I'm sure it does.

When I apply heat to a metal ring, will the hole in the middle shrink or expand?

Is acoustics a pseudoscience or is it fairly accurate on describing the behaviours of sound?
