Physics My Foot
Three days ago I pushed a cow out of an airplane in the air. The following glogster will demonstrate the physics stuff going on with the cow. Cow picture courtesy of http://www.prospect.org/csnc/blogs/ezraklein_archive?month=04&year=2009&base_name=the_great_amendment_hunt_leave

I am amazed by your system.-Sk
ReplyDeleteHey good job! You might want to include an energy statement saying that PEg=KE, I think that's right... Also in the directions it said that you need to define the variables for the equations like PEg and KE and m and h etc and how they are important in the equation.. Overall short sweet and gets to the point!
ReplyDeletePretty creative idea but I wonder what is the cow doing on a plane and how did you manage to open the door and kick her out!
ReplyDeleteA few items:
- Please establish a reference frame for teh potential energy
- You claim that PE depends on the force of gravity, are you saying that 'g' is a force? please clarify.
- Read the guidelines for this posting because as Nicole pointed out there are a few items missing.
Looking forward to reading the final adventures of this poor cow...
