- inactive, on 11/19/2008, -18/+187It's physics, not math.
- cyrusuncc, on 11/19/2008, -0/+98This professor is awesome
- jamin, on 11/19/2008, -6/+95physics is math
- xChunk, on 11/19/2008, -2/+87Dugg for the "WTF."
- NathanielJ, on 11/18/2008, -0/+82It's a play on words, not an error. The character's name is Dr. Light, and he's in trouble. Hence the title "Light's in the Dark" (as in Dr. Light is in the Dark).
- kpmoore, on 11/19/2008, -1/+68Holy ***** I am in this class. TAM 212 at UIUC. Really weird to see this on digg.
- Dagreenman, on 11/19/2008, -1/+66the obvious answer is "***** this, im gonna play some mega man"
- cyrusuncc, on 11/19/2008, -1/+63dugg for modesty
- NeoCortex, on 11/19/2008, -1/+60The final probably asks for the airspeed velocity of an unladen swallow.
- HiImFromReddit, on 11/19/2008, -9/+55spoiler: he dies

- cyrusuncc, on 11/19/2008, -1/+39What do you mean, an African or European swallow?
- oboredone, on 11/19/2008, -1/+36Why the hell can't my professors be this awesome?
- TheBlindGuy, on 11/19/2008, -1/+33If all homework had something to do with Megaman I would probably enjoy college a lot more.
- jnichols, on 11/19/2008, -0/+31Are you suggesting coconuts migrate?
- gertsfert, on 11/19/2008, -1/+31http://www.xkcd.com/435/
btw if anyone knows the code for making url's links in comments 'twould be awsome if you could tell me. - hoozer, on 11/19/2008, -1/+30Need more information. The bird's continent of origin perhaps?
- Jwoey, on 11/19/2008, -0/+25I'm taking a Discrete Mathematics course at Park University, and my professor makes me keep a daily journal on my feelings. What the *****?
- plhearn, on 11/19/2008, -0/+24Not really, just corrected.
- offrdbandit, on 11/19/2008, -0/+21@ duckkg5
"You guys have got to be virgins"
And you probably make minimum wage. - NeoCortex, on 11/19/2008, -0/+18I don't know that.
AHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH! - Futurejunior, on 11/19/2008, -1/+18Ya, me too. This class is ridiculous.

Did some work on the proportions. That took significantly longer than I expected. - DesdinovaEL, on 11/19/2008, -3/+18I cant believe you just said that
- dsmx, on 11/19/2008, -1/+16Physics is applied Maths.
- Murdats, on 11/19/2008, -0/+14the true/false section will ask you to calculate if mario will jump on the goomba given the distance, travel speed and upwards force of the jump.
- aenima987, on 11/19/2008, -0/+14I believe the other guy, not you though :P
- tehsuck1, on 11/19/2008, -0/+13So whats the answer?
- aserer511, on 11/19/2008, -1/+13only from urbana-champlain haha
- FearisFailure, on 11/19/2008, -4/+16Travelling at 93,141.1985 miles per second (half the speed of light) produces a factor of 1.1547005383792517. Here the velocity is incredibly fast and yet the change is still quite small.
At .9 times the speed of light, the factor becomes 2.294157338705618. Finally, the effects of relativity become significant. What does this factor mean though? If you were in a spaceship travelling at .9 times the speed of light:
1) the ship's mass (and you) would increase by a factor of 2.294
2) the ship (and you) would contract in the direction of travel by 2.294, meaning a 300 foot ship would shrink to 130.77 feet.
3) Perhaps the most interesting change is that 1 year to you would seem to be 2.294 years for someone back on Earth. - Scrappy1850, on 11/19/2008, -0/+12An F before you even enrolled in the class.
- tamman2000, on 11/19/2008, -0/+12Actually it's Theoretical and Applied Mechanics... It's advanced classical mechanics for engineers. It was also my major at UIUC.
- inactive, on 11/19/2008, -4/+15"Math is physics without purpose." Give me a ***** break. Probability, Combinatorics, Fluids, Finance, Optimization, etc. all of these studies benefit from research in Math.
Someone once said that Math is always 50 years ahead of its time. So current studies in Math will be used in other sciences only in 2060, and stuff from 1960 is finally being used now. - TPorter72, on 11/19/2008, -6/+17miles and feet are gay
- chadsexingtime, on 11/19/2008, -5/+15What do you get when you multiply six by nine
- notzak, on 11/19/2008, -0/+10That would be because it's omega.
- inactive, on 11/19/2008, -0/+10what was today's homework?
- listrophy, on 11/19/2008, -0/+10Start with r = d (cos(t))^-1 and differentiate wrt time, using the chain rule:
V(p/R) = d * w * tan(t) / cos(t) - Aeneous, on 11/19/2008, -0/+9I get the same answer as Listrophy. Your speed is a negative which clearly doesn't make sense. You are right that the derivitive of arccos(theta) is -1/sqrt(1-theta^2), but that's not what we want, we want the derivitive of (1/cos t ).
- EvilJelloMan, on 11/19/2008, -16/+25Math is physics without purpose.
Chemistry is physics without understanding.
Biology isn't even science. - Futurejunior, on 11/19/2008, -0/+8Im in this, Tam212. It's the worst class, the online homework is full of bugs and almost all the problems are like this which makes them impossible to decipher. It's awful.

Sign in with the login guest/phyug and password guest. You can see all of them. - Lubinski, on 11/19/2008, -0/+8Dugg for original content.
- inactive, on 11/19/2008, -1/+9I am Applied Math major, what do you expect?
- Davethe3rd, on 11/19/2008, -1/+9A few extra variables...
What are Vile, Storm Eagle, Lauch Octopus, Neon Tiger and one of Doppler's robots' hands doing there? Has Wily opened a Time Vortex and brought them through or has he had those robots the whole time, but never used them?
Which side are Cutman, Bombman, Gutsman and any other of the original 6 robots on? Are they for good or for awesome?
Then again, it's all a moot point as Zero will soon show up and kill them al-[ARROWED!!!]
Oww, my pixels!!! - negativefx, on 11/19/2008, -0/+7Umm, no.
- guiltyblade, on 11/19/2008, -0/+7i digg the little mario 3 icon on the tab!
- jamangold, on 11/19/2008, -0/+6I think you solve the equation by pressing the Select button repeatedly...
- securitymonkey, on 11/19/2008, -0/+6PROTIP: UP UP DOWN DOWN TRIANGLE CIRCLE DOWN DOWN SQUARE UP LEFT TRIANGLE DOWN
- azbmr, on 11/19/2008, -1/+7@chad - I don't get the feeling many of these people actually read that book. Your reference didn't fall on only deaf ears.
