Neglected variables Memes

The ultimate physics classroom paradox! While teachers conveniently dismiss air resistance as "negligible" to simplify equations, future aeronautical engineers are frantically scribbling notes with wide-eyed terror. Their entire career will literally depend on the exact thing being handwaved away! That penguin's expression perfectly captures the "wait, what did you just say?" moment when you realize your future job is calculating all those "negligible" details that make planes actually fly instead of plummeting to the ground. Simplified physics vs. real-world engineering in one hilarious frame!
