Physics Improves your Life in Every Way

A member of the Hive told me a funny story yesterday.

Some classmate (not a student of mine!) was trying to throw some shade her way by admonishing her “Don’t talk so loud  - I could hear you talking before I could even see you!”


Not only was she upset about this unsolicited advice, but she retorted about his lack of physics knowledge: “Well, it’s not my fault you use such short wavelengths of light to see with and such long wavelength of sound to hear with!" 

Silence.
  
"Diffraction!”

A+ in physics roasting!

Diffraction - I hear you around the corner before I see you
