Description
For those of you not in the know, the first equation is the kinematic that describes an object's final speed (Vf), based on its initial speed (Vi) plus the acceleration times the time (at). The second is the equation for impulse, or the amount of force (V/T, or velocity divided by time) on the mass (m).In other words, it's not the fall that kills you, it's the stopping.
Thanks to my friend Collin, whose conversation about terminal velocity inspired this in the first place. Dude, isn't this Q=mc/\T ?
Uses smashmethod's fantastic splatterbrushes.

For a while I was confused as to why I knew different equations for them I realised why, I've been taught to write Initial velocity as U and Final velocity as V. Thank god I actually knew what the heck was going on when I realised that otherwise I'd probably be screwed for my exam on Tuesday.

...I think there is great necessity to make this my desktop. Like right now. It would beat the complete World-Internet Connection Concentration (in color) Map my one friend has by a factor of, eh, n.

Love it!
Also, the people claiming that this is theft should bother to check dates. This one has been up for three years longer than the one they claim you've ripped off...

This is a really nice demonstration in physics!!
but i agree
is this a case of art thievery from that person?

This one was submitted January 9, 2005. The one ~Ahlto linked was submitted in December 2008. This is obviously the original.

you think I could use this for our calculus shirts?
I'd only make ten for our class.

Cleanup on isle 3^3....
I agree with the shirt comment. I would so buy one. Wit and minimalism.
Now that is great.

-stares blankly- I really need to pay attention in maths and science.

i love that being the geek i am this was not new to me, lol it is so cool, very creative.

my sis is a physics major. i think she'll crap her pants with laughter at this. i giggled and i dont even know physics.
cool stuff

Haha! That's killer, this is probably the greatest example of physics I've seen

Dude, isn't this Q=mc/\T ?
*sporfle* Yes. Yes it is.

Physics is cool.
Nice one. Simple, effective.
Good work.

You make simplicity work so well for you. Clever and original.

So simple, But so sweeeet....although i Hate physics....

This is a weird comment, but looking at this, and loving it so much, makes me realise I don't hate physics classes as much as I thought I did, and I'm considering forcing the course into my highschool timetable...somehow. anyway.

seems to be very interesting, though i don't understand it well

Haha that is great. It probably would have gotten more favs but there's a lot of people on dA who just don't know their physics

i almost failed my physics class! but i sure do remember that!

I think I'm going to send this to my physics teacher.

ew..... but I really love the idea.. and the blood spatter is very good 
👍: 0 ⏩: 0
i love it!
you should make these available on shirts and stuff
i'd buy this on a shirt!

oh man. that's awesome. as a physics major, i just have to fave this.
but i'd say it's more J = FΔt. i would have used the proper definition, but.. erhm.. i'm a geek and i'm going to stop while i'm ahead..
