Why were they discussing Newton in a quantum mechanics book?

to get a woman you need time and money, therefore:

Women = (time)(money)

but we all know money equals time:

money = time

therefore:

Women = (money)(money)

or

Women = (money)squared

and we also know the money is the root of all evil:

money = square root of (evil)

or

(money) squared = evil

therefore,

Women = (money) squared = evil

Women = evil




There you have it, mathmatical proof the women are evil.

I'm surprised Bernoulli's equation is not on the list. Flight is pretty important and definitely changed the world.

Black Scholes? Seriously? Come on, now. It's used to value stock options. How is that changing the world? Or is there some other use for it that I don't know about?

Pretty neat.

It's pretty difficult to study movement without Calculus.

Really Authority, How would the application of a magnetic field applied with a section of a circular object be relevant to define any value.

And what solution would occur if you multiply aforementioned value by the integration of a exponential function with an undefined parameter x .


Oh wait, But Sex. Nevermind
