Question: physics vday dorky!?

ok….my bf and i met in physics lab and had physics 1 & 2 together and were lab partners where we developed a great friendship…we’re both science majors and really dorky at heart. anyway, i figured the best gift for valentines day would be one that includes a physics experiement or something (yea, dorky, i know!) i dont even know if this is at all possible! but i figured it would be super cute to incorporate a simple physics experiment for v-day…like, i know how to make slime/gack and stuff like that and i work for the physics dept at school and have access to everything i could ever need. but if theres a way to make a heart or do something physics-y and cool to a picture or make something artistic somehow, please let me know! i dont know how realistic this request is, but if you are dorky enough to have an idea, please share!

Answer: haha – I love it! I’m a huge dork…a bit more in a linguistics/psychology type of way, but I do love physics. What about something with…IDK…ok, yeah I have no idea. The only thing I can think of is building a series of simple machines and moving a ball or something that ends with a message/love note! Ha! That’s the first thing that came to mind.

Lame, I know – but I do wish you the best of luck!

Question: Has anyone been illuminated by the hue of cormier?

I have discovered a fourth primary color I have named cormier after my last name. It cannot be derived from red, green, or blue. It is an ineffable color that can only be described as cormier colored.

You cannot see the color with your eyes, but it is a color anyway, and it is awesome to witness if only you could.

There have been scientists who have refracted a beam of light through a prism to show me that light only breaks down to three primary colors. I find these experiments to be biased and false. They have been corrupted by the observer, and are obviously due to an ulterior agenda to discredit me, so I have condemned particle light wave science. What these scientists do not know is that the color cormier cannot be seen. Cormier is beyond our understanding.

The question is, how have I come to my conclusion that there is a fourth color of light if I myself admit that the color cormier is beyond sight and, ultimately, understanding?

Answer: I don’t know how. It is your conclusion.

The color cormier is beyond sight and understanding – we would need new “sight” and understanding.

Congratulations – people will probably form a new religion around you and your “discovery”.

Question: Why was there boiled liver in our digestion experiment in science?

In science, we did an experiment on enzymes, we where given 3 boiling tubes with H2O2 in them and a few drops of washing up liquid, we were instructed to put a small piece of raw liver in one boiling tube, one small piece of boiled liver in a boiling tube, and a small piece of carrot into the last, we then had to observe for 5 minutes or so and measure how tall the bubbles were in each tube, the raw liver got the tallest bubbles, But then our teacher asked us all why there was boiled liver in this experiment, and know one could answer.

So i was wondering, why is there boiled liver in our experiment?

Answer: raw liver has catalase ,which degrades H2O2 to form oxygen(the bubbles you see)
the boiled liver serves as a control,the catalase has denatured,so no bubbles.
carrots also have catalase.you would also get the same result with crushed beans.
