You write executive summaries on your love letters.

Your Valentine's Day cards have bullet points.

ou start making "you know your a nerd when..." jokes.




YOU MIGHT BE A PHYSICS MAJOR...




if you have no life - and you can PROVE it mathematically.
if you enjoy pain.
if you know vector calculus but you can't remember how to do long division.
if you chuckle whenever anyone says 'centrifugal force.'
if you've actually used every single function on your graphing calculator.
if when you look in a mirror, you see a physics major.
if it is sunny and 70 degrees outside, and you are working on a computer.
if you always do homework on Friday and Saturday nights.
if you know how to integrate a chicken and can take the derivative of water.
if you think in 'math.'
if you've calculated that the World Series actually diverges.
if you hesitate to look at something because you don't want to break down its wave function.
if you have a pet named after a scientist.
if you laugh at jokes about mathematicians.
if the Humane society has you arrested because you actually performed the Schrodinger's Cat experiment.
if you can't remember what's behind the door in the science building which says 'Exit.'
if you have to bring a jacket with you, in the middle of summer, because there's a wind-chill factor in the lab.
if you are completely addicted to PhysLink.com.
if you avoid doing anything because you don't want to contribute to the eventual heat-death of the universe.
if you consider ANY non-science course 'easy.'
if when your professor asks you where your homework is, you claim to have accidentally determined its momentum so precisely, that according to Heisenberg it could be anywhere in the universe.
if the 'fun' center of your brain has deteriorated from lack of use.
if you'll assume that a 'horse' is a 'sphere' in order to make the math easier.
if you understood more than five of these indicators.
if you make a hard copy of this list, and post it on your door.

How the fcuk do you find the derivative of water?? Lim x-> 00 F(H20 - h) - F(H20) / h

try doing it using first principles...

[edit] acutally...wait... im intrigued.. ill try... this only assuming that O is the constant and we take the subcript 2 to be a square... H^2O

i am a nerd... *sigh*

d(o)/d(h)= u'v+v'u

= 2hxO + 0xH^2

= 2hO

Well, any self-respecting physics major knows that there's no such thing as centrifugal force--what most people call centrifugal force is just a combination of centripetal force and inertia. _smile.gif

ooooOoOoooohhh.... i thought

centripetal force = centrifugal force = acceleration towards centre of movement


hmmmmm... another thing wrong with my physics teacher... i always knew she was a hack...

No no, centripetal force is acceleration towards the center of a circle.

Not always the centre of a circle though, its the axis or centre of movement... like turning in a car... youre not moving in a circular motion yet you still experience centripetal force or jj thompsons experiment the cathode rays arnent travelling in a circular motion yet he could still implement the F=mv^2/r equation

Correct me if I'm wrong, but wasn't centrifugal force the force that acts outward. Or, is that basically centripetal force with intertia. Either case, I think I just confused myself. crazy.gif crazy.gif crazy.gif

Inertia wants to make you go straight. Centripetal force pushes you into the turn.
