fun with physics

I don’t have much to say today, so instead I’ll give you this very random photo that I found and scanned.

fun with physics

This is from a physics lab at Iowa in college. I don’t know what its measuring or what lab it was from. I took Physics I & II (with Calculus) in college because I was going to get a BS degree in comp sci instead of a BA (they offered both, the only difference was how many additional science classes you took), I got the BA instead, but still suffered through all the physics courses. Jeff, G-reg, and Frosty were either in one or both of the classes with me. The professor was this horrible waste of space who tortured us with multiple-choice exams where all your calculations meant nothing. The labs were fun, I remember that. I also remember studying and working on problem sets in some of the lecture rooms in what was then the new business building. They didn’t lock the rooms back then (all of ten years ago) but they did start shortly afterwards. Gee I wonder why.

Frictionless, massless planes. And ice skaters. Good times.

    the good old mass less, friction less days….

    Studying in the back of that car going to Michigan is one of my favorite college memories ever! At least something good came from that Physics class.

    Ugh! Driving that car while you guys were studying was agonizing. I still remember Wendy’s Itty Bitty Book Light…
