Physics Doesn't Care About Your Feelings

Physics professors everywhere are cackling at this one! Technically, "work" in physics is force multiplied by displacement in the direction of the force (W = F·d·cosθ). If you're just carrying a box around in a circle and end up where you started, the net displacement is ZERO! Your muscles scream in agony, your brain thinks you've climbed Mount Everest, but physics smugly declares you've done exactly ZERO WORK. It's like running on a cosmic treadmill—exhausting yet mathematically worthless! Next time your arms are burning from holding something, just remember: physics doesn't care about your feelings, only your vectors!
