I've heard the same principle (sort of) applies to those who lay down a bed of nails. Their weight is spread over so many nails that there is very little force on each nail.

Pancakes are way better, the softer surface is more porous, allowing syrup and butter to soak into it and fill it with flavor.
-
That must have taken a lot of work, I'm glad they were more precise than we were in the lab we failed at in class last quarter.
-
A real Death Star would probably also affect our moon's orbit, which would then affect the tides and water levels on Earth.
-
How much force do you think it would actually take to move the ground the way some of the "ground pounds" are displayed in some video games?
-
Do you think it would ever be possible to have a small weapon harnessing sound in real life? That would be a cool weapon to see in action.
-
That's super interesting. Do you think the human body could go at these high speeds? Would they have to be in some sort of machine or could it be done with some sort of suit?

While it's dangerous, it's cool that water can affect a heavy car so much, all because of friction!
-
Magnets are a cool force, I'm excited to do more with them this year!
-
I always though they were carrying the stick just to carry something heavy, but now I know it's for balance!
-
Wow, I knew you didn't want to pop a tire, but I didn't know it could get that bad. If a car going really fast hit the curb, what would happen?
-
That's so interesting that there's a Cheerio effect. Who knew their were physics in a bowl of cereal!

12 minutes ago, SgtLongcoat said:Isn't it possible that there are forces other than friction and gravity acting on the glasses when they start to slip? What about the forces of your face muscles, which you tend not to notice as they act subconsciously?
Yeah, that's a good point. I would imagine that the force on the glasses from your nose and the muscles there would do a decent amount of work to combat the force of gravity. Thanks!

It's funny how most of the blogs you post prove than video games are completely unrealistic. Great job!
-
I love this movie! Great job with the kinematics. I thought it was cool you thought about it in terms of energy too.
-
This was incredibly interesting! I love Minecraft, and the force on the player was an awesome concept to look into, great work!

I also enjoyed AP Physics last year, I'm really enjoying the flipped class with the lectures at home!

I think it's weird how 3e8 m/s is the "speed of light" but it's not always traveling that fast. Cool post!
