Engineers Be Like: Frames Of Reference

The eternal science flex hierarchy captured in six perfect panels! Engineers might get the gold medals, but biologists are out here living their best chaotic life. While physicists and chemists celebrate their 80% and humble 60% scores, biologists are shotgunning champagne at 101% because who needs rules when you've memorized the entire taxonomic kingdom?! The ultimate academic flex isn't perfection—it's passing while maintaining your wild-child energy. Biologists don't just study life; they embody it with middle fingers raised to conventional achievement metrics. Why settle for a perfect GPA when you can party with your test tube and still somehow dominate the podium?

The correct answer is E. That boulder's potential energy is just waiting to become kinetic, but physics has a dark sense of humor. When E pushes the stone, it'll roll down, hit the see-saw at C, launch the spear into D, who will fall into the pit. Meanwhile, B keeps walking obliviously, and A stands there contemplating their life choices. But E? Poor E will be crushed by that suspended half-sphere above them that nobody noticed. Conservation of energy, conservation of life expectancy... not so much.

Molecular materials scientists getting DOWN with their favorite 2D structures! On the left and right we've got graphene (carbon's sexy hexagonal lattice) while the middle dancer flaunts boron nitride's honeycomb pattern with that yellow-black swagger. These single-atom-thick materials are the supermodels of nanoscience—impossibly thin yet structurally fierce! Materials physicists don't just study these beauties—they obsess over putting rings on these single layers! 💍🔬

The eternal search for perpetual motion machines continues! This sketch shows a truck with a robotic arm holding a magnet that's attracting an iron plate attached to the truck itself. It's basically trying to pull itself forward using magnetism – a classic physics-defying dream that would break conservation of energy faster than a grad student breaks their diet during finals week. The magnetic force pulling forward would be exactly balanced by the force needed to hold the magnet in position. Newton's third law strikes again! It's like trying to lift yourself up by pulling on your own bootstraps, except with more engineering and equally impossible results.

Using MATLAB for basic arithmetic is like bringing a nuclear submarine to a bathtub race. The excessive computational power makes even the simplest task feel like you're performing digital acrobatics. Graduate students worldwide know that feeling of writing 47 lines of code just to calculate what Excel could do with a single cell formula. But hey, at least your advisor will be impressed by all those semicolons.

Physicists getting frisky with the right-hand rule! When current flows through a conductor, it creates a magnetic field that wraps around it in a specific direction. This is basically electromagnetism's version of "Netflix and chill" - stick your thumb in the direction of current, curl your fingers, and boom, you've got the magnetic field direction. The suggestive wink just makes it clear that some people find Fleming's Right Hand Rule... stimulating. Who knew physics could be so... magnetic? Next time someone asks what turns you on, just say "electromagnetic induction" and see what happens.
