"In which direction is the bus pictured below traveling?"
Look carefully at the picture.Do you know the answer?
The only possible answers are "left" and "right."
There is a logical explantion for the right answer. Post a comment. I'm curious to see if anyone above the age of 5 can get the right answer and reason...

"Left" (assuming that it's not in reverse) because there's no door on the side that's shown. The door is always on the right side of the bus. Hmmm... but then again, where's the driver's door? Okay, I give up. I don't know.
I'll say "right" since you said "there's a logical answer for the right answer." (Don't torture me too long...what's the correct answer????)
Do a google search you will get your answer. That is how the 1st anonymous got his or her ans. :-(
The answer is both left and right, according to the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle... since we know the position of the bus with 100% precision (right smack in the middle of our browser), it's momentum is 100% uncertain, resulting in a superposition of both states. This is something that pre-schoolers know intuitively, but gets lost as they receive a formal education emphasizing classical deterministic physics.
huh??? Yeah.. that's it.. The "Heisnberg Uncertainty Principle"... how did you know?
The Bus is heading straight at you. Those are headlights.
