Assume the pig is spherical, frictionless and ignore wind resistance.
So a spherical pig in a perfect vacuum?
Yeah we have those on aisle 6.
Aisle
My bad, though I learned that the old spelling for aisle is in fact isle. I have corrected it, thank you.
The Aisley Brothers were great though
Tried to replicate by subtracting pi from a police officer, but all I got was a type error and a night in jail.
Not the olce offcer
A pig without pie is gravity? What am I missing?
pi = 3.14
g = 9.8 m/s^2
pig
Wow. Thank you for explaining but that was a lot less funny than I was expecting
Lol this comment made me laugh more than the op
Ahhh thank you!
be me
"... a pig without pi is ... gravity... no...
a pig without pi is... heavy?...
Oh..."
My friend still doesn't get it...
Mine doesn't get it either and, uh... it's soooooo easy and obvious that I don't know how to explain. Yeah.
"A pig without 3.14 is 9.8"
3.14 = first few digits of π (pi)
"pig" without "pi" is "g" (not math, just letters)
g = term for acceleration due to gravity (on Earth) = 9.81 m/s²
Thank you for that. It finally clicked.
Pi is about 3.14 and the acceleration for gravity (g) is 9.8. So a pig without 3.14 (pi), is 9.8 (g).
same here lol
A pig without (3.14 AKA pi) = g
G is gravity which is 9.8 metres per second on earth
For anyone not sober wondering wtf this meant.
I am not sober thank you
So pig = ~30.8
Can also be 12.84
I don't get it :(
A pig without 3.14 is 9.8
pig - 3.14 = 9.8 pig = 9.8+3.14
Ah fuck, my math. Its 12.94 not 12.84
10 and √10
You have my upvote, but please, don't do it again.
Reluctant upvote
eager downvote
I don't know why that took me a second...
I get half of the joke, but completely lost on the second half, and title.
pig
pi g
The number pi, earth gravity 3.14..., ~9.8m/s²
Pig without 3.14 is 9.8
For explanation of Title: Actually most of the time I take g as 10 in numericals and give answer in approx.
is this a grand unified theory
You mean pig without 3 is 10.
Find the accelaration
A pig without 3.14 is (0.0015926...) * 9.8
