                                    FUNNY PHYSICS

Hallo Dude! What da ya say? Physics is boring? Probably you have not gone through this section before which presents the fun of physics, enjoy it!

If it wasn't for Thomas Alva Edison, we'd all be watching TV to the light of a candle.

One horsepower is the amount of energy it takes to drag a horse 500 feet in one second.

You can listen to thunder after lightning and tell how close you came to getting hit. If you don't hear it, you got hit, so never mind.

When people run around and around in circles we say they are crazy. When planets do it we say they are orbiting.

Most books now say our sun is a star. But it still knows how to change back into a sun in the daytime.

Da ya know Absolute zero is cool!

Gravity is a law. Lawbreakers will be brought down!

One of our BITSIAN friend bored of MT pracs does an experiment. He wants to know how fast a thermometer falls down. He takes a thermometer and a light, a candle light. He drops both from the 3rd floor and recognizes that they are reaching the ground at the same time. That great bitsian writes in his book: A thermometer falls with the speed of light.

Heisenberg is out for a drive when he's stopped by a traffic cop. The cop says, "Do you know how fast you were going?" <br>
Heisenberg says, "No, but I know where I am."

Here's one about Heisenberg: You've perhaps seen or heard of old inns that have plaques on the wall of a room saying, for example: "George Washington slept here." Well,
There's apparently an inn in Germany with their own plaque. It says: "Heisenberg may have slept here."

Why did the chicken cross the road?
Issac Newton1: Chickens at rest tend to stay at rest. Chickens in motion tend to cross the road.
Issac Newton2: It was pushed on the road.
Issac Newton3: It was pushed on the road by another chicken, which went away from the road.
Issac Newton4: It was attracted to a chicken on the other side of the road.
 

When Newton saw an apple fall, he found ...
A mode of proving that the earth turnd round
In a most natural whirl, called gravitation;
And thus is the sole mortal who could grapple
Since Adam, with a fall or with an apple.
Apple Gravitation

Q: What's the difference between a mathematician and a physicist?
A: A mathematician thinks that two points are enough to define a strait line while a physicist wants more data.

The English mathematician John Wallis (1616-1703) was a friend of Isaac Newton. According to his diary, Newton once bragged to Wallis about his little dog Diamond. "My dog Diamond knows some mathematics. Today he proved two theorems before lunch."
"Your dog must be a genius," said Wallis.
"Oh, I wouldn't go that far," replied Newton. "The first theorem had an error and the second had a pathological exception."
