What does it mean to be one in a million?

Šta znači to biti jedan u milion?
00:10
Not in the greeting card sense,
1
10429
2350
Ne u smislu teksta sa čestitke,
00:12
in the scientific sense,
2
12779
1829
nego u naučnom smislu,
00:14
where one part per million is a unit of measurement.
3
14608
3382
gde je jedan milioniti deo jedinica mere.
00:17
Parts per million counts the number of units of one substance
4
17990
3610
Deo u milionu je broj jedinica jedne supstance
00:21
per one million units of another.
5
21600
2660
po jednom milionu jedinica druge.
00:24
It can measure concentrations when a small amount makes a big difference.
6
24260

Može da meri koncentracije onda kada mala količina predstavlja veliku razliku.
00:28
For example, a concentration of just 35 ppm of carbon monoxide in the air
7
28420
5429
Na primer, koncentracija od samo 35 ppm ugljen-monoksida u vazduhu
00:33
is poisonous to us.

otrovna je za ljude.
00:35
We encounter measurements like this pretty often,
9
35890
2670
Sa ovakvim merama srećemo se prilično često,
00:38
but because it's hard to conceptualize really large numbers,
10
38560
3050
ali pošto je teško predstaviti zaista velike brojeve,
00:41
it's difficult to wrap our brain around what one part per million really means.
11

teško je da zamislimo šta to znači jedan deo u milion.
00:46
So here are nine helpful ways to visualize it.
12

Evo devet korisnih načina da ovo zamislite.
00:50
If you had 11,363 pianos-worth of piano keys,
13
50050
5432
Ukoliko biste imali dirke sa 11 363 klavira,
00:55
one of those keys would be about one part per million.
14
55482
5129
jedna od tih dirki bila bi jedna u milion.
01:00
So would a single granule of sugar among 273 sugar cubes,
15
60611
5479
Kao i jedno zrno šećera u 273 kocke šećera,
01:06
one second in eleven and a half days,
16
66090
4351
jedna sekunda u jedanaest i po dana
01:10
or four dots in the painting,
17
70441
1999
ili četiri tačke na slici:
01:12
"A Sunday Afternoon on the Island of La Grande Jatte."
18
72440
4882
"Nedeljno popodne na ostrvu Grand Žat".
01:17
Your bath tub's capacity is about 60 gallons,
19
77322
3789
Kapacitet vaše kade je oko 230 litara,
01:21
so seven drops of ink would be one part per million.
20
81111
3910
tako da bi sedam kapi mastila bilo jedan deo u milion.
01:25
The English version of the Harry Potter series has 1,084,170 words,
21
85021
7020
Engleska verzija serijala Hari Poter ima 1.084.170 reči,
01:32
which makes "hippogriff" on page 221 of "The Prisoner of Azkaban"
22
92041
5061
čime reč "hipogrif" na 221. strani "Zatvorenika u Askabanu"
01:37
a little less than one part per million.
23
97102
3512
predstavlja nešto manje od jednog dela u milion.
01:40
A million kernels of corn is about 1,250 ears,
24
100614
4218
Milion zrna kukuruza je oko 1250 klipova,
01:44
so one kernel in that truckload would be one part per million.
25
104832
4561
tako bi jedno zrno u toj hrpi bilo jedan deo u milion.
01:49
There are 10 million bricks in the Empire State Building,
26
109393
3190
U zgradu Empajer stejt uzidano je deset miliona cigala,
01:52
so one part per million would be a pile of just ten.
27
112583
4130
tako da bi jedan deo u milion bila hrpa od samo deset njih.
01:56
And finally, 100 people worked together to animate this video.
28
116713
5090
Konačno, sto ljudi radilo je zajedno da bi animirali ovaj video.
02:01
Collectively, they have about 10 million hairs on their heads.
29
121803
4590
Zajedno, oni imaju oko 10 miliona dlaka na svojim glavama.
02:06
Pluck ten of those hairs, and you have one in a million.
30
126393
4480
Iščupajte deset njihovih dlaka i dobićete jedan u milion.
