Physics Vagina

RAAARGH! I AM THE (positively charged) MIGHTY PHYSICS VAGINA
Fear Me
So inappropriate

Thanks to Mike for this excellent Physics ZOoF!

Electrodes

The Kamehameha Wave

Extra credit: Knowing a Kamehameha wave travels at half the speed of light, and that 1 light-minute equals 1/10 of an AU, how long would it take for the blast to reach the sun?

Goku can fly, so the time depends on how far he is from the sun. Also, he protects the Earth, so he'd never destroy the sun.

Thanks R. Cali!

Batman finds the critical angle

BONUS
Find the critical angle of a plate of glass with n=1.6
It is 2.15 degrees!
Batman said! It must be true! He is Batman after all.
not this time

Tyler, one of our six ZOoF readers, wrote: "I had run out of time for the bonus ( I had a minute left) so I drew a quick Batman in hopes he would give me some points."

Thanks Tyler, that made me chuckle!

Cthulhu drinking coffee

My library book was due before I got to finish reading it and now I'm mad.

Love this one! Apparently this student actually does really well on tests; she just draws to help her concentrate.

Transgendered Electrons?

(c) If an electron is raised into the second excited state, draw on the diagram all the possible transitions that the electron can make in returning to the ground state.


Only if the electron feels it was born into the wrong body.

THIS IS SPARTA Physics

3) Sketch a pose which is not balanced (the person will fall!) On the drawing illustrate the important components of balance (make sure they are labeled). Explain in words why this pose is not balanced (why the person will fall.) (6pts)


Not only have the CoM and CoP been disaligned by the great Spartan King's courageous foot, the CoM lies completely outside the base of support and into the fearsome lizard's razor teeth. Perhaps he should've chosen his words more wisely.

Introduction
In this laboratory experiment, we are presented with two systems. The first system features a pair of blocks that are released from rest when the spring is stretches 15 inches. The kinetic coefficient of the friction is given as uK = 0.6. The second system features another pair of blocks that are releases from rest when the spring is stretched 150mm. The frictions between the 10kg block and the floor is neglected. For the first system we are to determine the speed of the 2lb block after it has moved 6 inches. For the second system we are to determine the maximum distance that the 2kg block will rise above the floor. No one is reading this. the analytical result will then be compared to a simulation created in Working Model.

She is Blind

b. Miranda can't see anything when she looks down her microscope.
Suggest one reason why not
She is blind
x Nice try!

Thanks to Iraklis for pointing this one out on ZOoF's Facebook page.

Astronomy

My astronomy is a little rusty, but I think that should read Evolution OF the Main Sequence. Oh and that's a nice drawing too.

It's over 9000!

d. (5 pts) Dr. Allen comes to rest in the pool after 2.2s. Calculate the average power due to the force of the water in stopping her.


Power > 9000


Worth a laugh +1


Explanation here and here.

More than meets the eye!

+1 for awesome


Indeed!

Data is screwed!

Due to complications our data is screwed and we cannot answer this.


I cannot remember the number of times this happened to me!

Godzilla strikes again!

The upward force is zero, because Godzilla destroyed the bridge.
OH NO!


Godzilla strikes again!

Sea Monster

Alien Invasion

do not know the answer to 17 & 19, but perhaps this Robot will persuade you to give me the point anyways


If not maybe this Dalek.  No! - Learn it!!


You know I love a teacher with a sense of humor!
