Inverse-square-law Memes

The kitten has spoken the truth! This meme brilliantly captures the fundamental difference between classical and quantum physics using our feline friend's reactions. In classical physics, gravity and electrostatics follow the same mathematical pattern—both have inverse square laws where the force decreases with the square of the distance. Hence the happy "hehe" kitten! Everything makes sense and is predictable. But quantum physics? That's where things get weird and less amusing ("LESS hehe"). Suddenly particles can be in multiple places, cats can be simultaneously alive and dead, and nothing behaves as common sense would dictate. The kitten's slightly concerned face perfectly embodies how physicists feel when the comfortable rules of classical physics break down at the quantum level!

Behold, the mathematical equivalent of copying your lab partner's homework but changing it just enough so the professor doesn't notice. Newton's gravitational force formula (F = G m₁m₂/d²) and Coulomb's electrostatic force law (F = k q₁q₂/r²) are basically identical twins with different variables. Both describe forces that follow the inverse square law—just swap masses for charges and you're done. Physics professors everywhere pretend these are completely different concepts while secretly knowing they're just recycling the same math with different letters. The ultimate scientific ctrl+c, ctrl+v situation.
