It's 9pm in Ferndale, MI. Time once again for Q&A with MrScorpio

[MrScorpio]

Your most pressing questions answered.

So whip them puppies out and show 'em to me!!

[bobbieinok]

1. why do they call simple harmonic motion 'simple?'

that cracked us up in 1st year physics as we tried to work the problem sets

[MrScorpio]

3. GEEZUZ H. KRYST!!!! Of course it's simple...

If you can't figure out that a vibration in which the acceleration is directly proportional to but directed away from the displacement of the body from the mean position, you have no business in a Physics class.

Take up basketweaving. It's probably more your speed.

[bobbieinok]

6. will it still count toward the degree if I substitute 'underwater

basketweaving?

[MrScorpio]

7. If you're a student of Regent or Bob Jones... Yeah

Those guys ought to take careers in that field as soon as they graduate.

It'll keep them out of Washington.

If that's not your cup of Folgers, get you nose back into that physics book.

2. How did

*the fly* get the distinction of being called the *fly*, given the myriad of creatures that do, in fact, *fly*? :shrug:

[MrScorpio]

4. It was the first flying insect to copyright the name.

First come, first served.

Those fools are mindless.
