Virgin Lee vs Chad Panther
I don't know what that caption means. I assume those are the names of the tanks. Never heard of them.

My first job after graduating from college allowed me to buy my first home. It had no air conditioning so I bought a huge 4' industrial fan and put it in my attic. I then built housing around it to channel air up through a hole I cut by removing the ceiling of a hall closet that I had removed the door. Anyway when I turn it on the curtains looked like in the picture above.

Bowling ball hail in Burkburnett, Texas
Could that be true? But I do like the sports ball comparison.

I don't think that's the first time that has happened.

That took me a minute or two but now I think the fog is level with the top of the cliff...maybe White Cliffs of Dover.

Puzzle time: the correct lower case g is right here "g"

Scott James said...

Odd - While I write "g", right here and right now, it looks just like #1. When it shows up in the post it is a totally different font. Thought I was being clever, but it didn't work out.

Either I don't get the irony, or this picture "Physics for dummies" (https://1.bp.blogspot.com/-Bksbn3HPKog/Xsk2QjYKogI/AAAAAAAFw3c/EotfmUV4VrEhLXk-g4n0B7Hxtt9VZ_hugCLcBGAsYHQ/s1600/Screen%2BShot%2B2020-05-22%2Bat%2B5.09.59%2BPM.png) depicts what is NOT happening in reality.

Imagine jumping up while in a moving train or airplane: do you feel like you've been shifted back, while the rest of the train/airplane moved forward. Now imagine you have a swimming pool inside a moving train -- what is the difference?
That is why they have swimming pools on moving cruise ships and it never happened that somebody would miss the swimming pool while jumping into it due to ship movement.

BTW this is how Newtonian and Relativistic mechanics differ: the light behaves in some sense similarly to the man on the picture.

So if you were on the roof of a speeding van and you toss up a ball it would just go up and come down in your hand?

If you were on the roof of a speeding (accelerating) van, then the ball would fall somewhere else, of course. =) But if the van was moving with a constant speed (say 50 miles/hour) then the ball would lend right into your hand.

And I guess I'm having problems distinguishing images of accelerating vehicles from the images of vehicles moving with the constant speed.

But I will get there some day. =D
