The difference in spelling between "beginning" and "happening" is due to the rules of English morphology and etymology. The word "beginning" is derived from the Old English word "beginnan," which had a double "n" in its root form. On the other hand, "happening" is derived from the Old English word "happen," which only had a single "n" in its root form. The variation in spelling reflects the historical development and evolution of these words in the English language.

How is time defined according to physical science?

Time is the separation of events. It is what keeps all events from happening simultaneously. It is also how we measure the duration of events. Every event has a beginning and an end. Time apparently has an "arrow" in that we perceive events as happening irreversibly in succession. Time is different from space in that it has only one dimension and space has three dimensions.

In a roll of the dice for 24 consecutive times which has the higher probability of happening a. double six to appear or b. a double six will not appear?

The double six probably will not appear. There's only one way to make a 12. The correct odds are 30 to one. That means they might appear in 30 rolls of the dice. But, the dice don't have eyes and they don't know what number was rolled previously. The numbers are random and double six could appear more often.

Can the national anthem be played twice in the course of one day at a double-header or back to back basketball games?

Proper protocol is to only play the anthem one time at a sporting event. In a baseball double header the anthem is only played once unless it is a split day night event. In that case it is treated as 2 different events. I've been to a number of NCAA tourney double headers and the anthem was only played at the beginning of the first game. Sure the anthem can be played twice bit it shouldn't.
