Physicists will literally simplify any problem to make the math work. Need to calculate cow packing density? Just model them as perfect spheres! This brilliant parody of the infamous "spherical cow approximation" shows what happens when theoretical physics meets agriculture. In reality, physicists use these simplifications to make complex systems tractable—though farmers might have some questions about the methodology. Next up: frictionless chickens in a vacuum!
