Things that crack me up

Jun 21, 2005 03:13

If you saw much of me, which, most of you did during the school year, you may remember a few words/phrases I would say all the time. One of these is: "that cracks me up!" or some variation on said phrase. This is one time in which I stoop so low as to use a preposition at the end of a sentence without excusing myself. Anyway, here are a couple ( Read more... )

That sounds like something my mom would say... Think they're talking to eachother? lol
I hear you on the math thing. I'd forgotten that there really is non-college level math out there. It sure it a lot easier to explain.

All thanks to Perozzo, of course. I've forgotten Faraday's law of induction. Panic.

Panic? Pourquoi?

What did Faraday ever do to you!?

(it's Maxwell we SHOULD be after...)

Derivitate is now my favorite verb. (that only took three tries :P) And who are these Maxwell and Faraday people you speak of? ;-)

I was wondering if you were going to fix that... ;)

Faraday: law of induction (induction, think coils w/ current running through... like resistance only not... oh yeah, you skipped everything remotely electrical... ha ha have fun.) I have forgtten it also...

Maxwell... heh... man w/ 4 enclosed-integral equation-laws, also known as: Biot-savart law, Ampere's law, no-name law, and... [thinks] RANDI, HELP!!! (was Gauss part of that conglomerate mix? To where has my brain disappeared?)

Maxwell is the man because he looked at everyone else's work, said 'ooh, cool!' and put it all into a paper and got his name on all of it.

Indeed he did.

He did put them together in an organized manner though, and realize that moving charge=current, moving current=field; and then he tried to do the same thing w/ magnets until he realized that you can't have isolated poles... and then he made it work anyway! And wow, now I'll stop.

What was the fourth law, though? (The no-name law and Gauss's law were similar, right?) Was there something along the lines of change in magnetic field and change in flux...isn't that Biot-Savart... and I'm confusing myself.
