Okay, this would violate Schrödinger , but there may be an "easy" way to figure out if there's any more 1971 motors in those other 10 packs without opening.
*IF* the thick-walled 1971 motor weighs more. Weigh it accurately, and also weigh the 1973 motors to see what their average is. If the 1971 motor weighs at least a gram more..... then weighing the packs might tip off what's inside.
I figure you still have the packaging and everything that was in them? Weigh the entire opened diamond pack with contents and the 1971 and 1973 motors in it. Weigh the other opened pack with all 1973 motors in it. Maybe there is a significant enough mass difference?
Then weigh each of the other 10. See if they weigh about the same as the all 1973 motor pack, or if any weigh more, if my idea about the 1971 motor being heavier is true. If any weighs MORE than the pack with one 1971 motor in it, then it might have two or even three 1971 motors in it.
Or, "cheat" and use an X-ray.  |
