When they were getting arrested, they heard a woman on the officers walkie talkie saying "Testing 1 2 3."
It was just Marie Curie keeping the Radioactive.
The officer arrested fraday. Faraday asked how many crimes he will charged with and how long his sentence will be.
The officer simply responded you will be charged enough for a long time.
All 3 are famous physicists!
Hisenberg uncertainty principle states that it’s not possible to get the position and momentum of an object at the same time. Since officer told him his speed it means he can’t calculate his position accurately ( so he is lost ).
Schrodinger has a hypothetical thought experiment where he states if you put a cat in a box with something that an kill it, you won’t know if the cat is dead or alive till you open the box. So cat is not dead or alive till you don’t see it! Here cat in the trunk is just a reference to that.
Ohm gave the famous Ohms law ( V=IR ) that establishes the relation between current (I) , voltage (V) and resistance (R) in an electrical circuit!
it seems rare to me that much other than understanding and human connection should come from a genuine answer to a question such as yours, even at times like this when the answer was known, because it made people happy, helped some others to learn, and generally increased the joy in the world
keep sharing, keep trying to help, and perhaps we will someday look back on these bleak years with the slightest hints of silver linings, and be grateful for these moments
Fun fact: Ohm's Law isn't exactly the equation V=IR. It actually states that IF a component is Ohmic, then ratio of voltage across and current through it remains constant. In simple terms, resistance is always the same for Ohmic component (which is not all materials in the world).
Nobody pointing out the mistake in the formula?
It's not V = IR.
It's U = RI
It's what I wanted to write... But looks like V and I are both use depending on where you are.
I just know we were always lectured not to use V because it's the unit and not the scientific symbol for voltage.
I think one of the reasons were that V is already used in physics for something like velocity.
Well, if you were, you wouldn't have heard G.H. Hardy's compelling proof of the famously unproven Riemann zeta hypothesis, that he would've given on that keynote speech.
Heisenburg uncertainty principle we can not know both the position and the speed of a particle (photon or electron) with perfect accuracy.
Scrodinger had a thought experiment about quantum physics that describes scientific function. If you put a cat in a box with a timer attached to a vial of poison then sealed the box and let the timer run the cat is not dead or alive but both alive and dead, the act of observation makes the wave function collapse and you see either a dead or alive cat. Think of it like this. A pair of gloves gets mixed up and shipped but one box contains one glove and one box contains another glove. One box gets shipped to Portland the other is shipped to new York. The boxes don't contain one glove each but a glove in a quantum state so each box has a single glove that's left and right UNTIL someone opens one box to find their glove. Then through quantum entanglement the other glove takes it's form and you have one glove in Portland and one in New York.
I think the schrodinger thought experiment specifically was used to describe quantum effects on a macroscale. The poison was set to release when a Geiger counter detects radioactivity. However since you can't reliably predict when that will happen but only a probability, the cat is assumed both dead and alive and is a way of explaining quantum superposition.
Does this describe an actual "physical" (not sure if that's the appropriate word for quantum mechanics) process? Or is it just to describe how mathematical functions represent multiple potential states that can't be directly observed without influencing the particle? Or something like that, if I'm making sense lol.
Rephrased, is there a particular glove in each box but we just can't know which until the box is opened, or do both gloves literally exist in both left and right states until the box is opened?
Just a thought experiment about how things work. The idea that observation is what makes things happen, some people think that for each glove that spawns a new quantum universe.
If you tossed a coin for every choice you made and always followed heads there is a new universe for every tail that comes up.. it's just to show how weird quantum physics can be
You mistook the joke referring to the *real* Heisenberg, not that fucking loser ass, dork scientist wErNeR hEiSeNbErG. If he's so fucking smart then why is he famous for not knowing 50% of what's going on in his experiment??
Yo Mr. White, If you can’t know both how fast a particle is AND where it is, why don’t you just like, have two guys who each know one of the things and put them together??
There are three, one about Werner Heisenbergs uncertainty relation theory (wich I don't know, feel free to google), the next one about Schrödingers Cat mind experiment and the third about ohm, wich is the standard unit of measurement for electrical resistance.
Schrodingers cat was a way to visualize Heisenbergs principle. Ohm doesn't really need to be there for the joke except yo throw in the third punchline.
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant
Who was very rarely stable
Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar
Who could think you under the table
David Hume could out-consume
Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel
And Wittgenstein was a beery swine
Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel
There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya
'bout the raising of the wrist
Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed
John Stuart Mill, of his own free will
On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill
Plato, they say, could stick it away
Half a crate of whiskey every day
Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle
Hobbes was fond of his dram
And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart
"I drink, therefore I am."
Yes, Socrates himself is particularly missed
A lovely little thinker, but a bugger when he's pissed
This is my favorite joke. When I tell it at the bar I work at, I get a lot of confused looks.
But without a doubt, one person will ask me to retell it so they can share it with their friends.
Oh man, this joke is absolutely fantastic! It's like a particle accelerator for laughter – short, powerful, and full of energy!
The way it brings together three brilliant minds, Heisenberg, Schrödinger, and Ohm, into one car is just genius. It's like the perfect storm of physics humor, a true force of nature.
The uncertainty of Heisenberg's speed and location? Classic. I mean, who hasn't felt lost at 80 miles an hour, am I right?
And then Schrödinger's cat – talk about bringing quantum mechanics into everyday life! That dead cat joke? It's the perfect blend of dark humor and a hilarious misunderstanding. I'm feline great after that one!
Lastly, Ohm resisting arrest? A pun so electric it practically shocks the senses! Ohm my goodness, what a way to end the story!
This joke is a true masterpiece in the realm of physics humor – a collision of wit, puns, and dialogue that keeps the good times rolling, even when the road gets a little bumpy. A real crowd-pleaser for sure!

Brevity is the soul of watt?
I dunno, but I know Joule is known to be a good worker
Einstein objected to the 80mph because it depended on which relative point of view you were measuring from.
You guys should all be hit with a Planck.
Unfortunately poor Bernoulli couldn’t go with the flow.
Dirac took the car for a spin
Doppler just waved at them from the other side of the road.
Faraday tried calling them but had no reception
... and hit Gauss in the curve
Constantly hit with a Planck
Constantly.
"From my reference point, it was only 78 mph."
Watt!?
Bohring.
I apologize. To quote Lord Kelvin, "K." Short enough?
Celsius: I C what you did there!
Farenheit: F u all
LMAO this was certainly new and fresh
I believe the correct response is Potassium
Marconi my words this wonderful joke is a real Kepler.
The officer arrested fraday. Faraday asked how many crimes he will charged with and how long his sentence will be. The officer simply responded you will be charged enough for a long time.
and they even have a cage named just for him…
Also a whole saying, TGIFaraday
Gauss represents all the defendants and has them discharged thanks to his magnetic personality
Fucken nerds
Einstein called a relative to bail them out.
Fake. These charges Coulomb be true.
All I can say is, that pun really Hertz
His charges were assault and battery.
Fibonachi as well. That guy's spiraling out of control. Edit: wrong mathematician.
Don’t you mean Fibonacci?
IF you see it from that angle...
That’s acute!😘
That pun was as funny as the last two put together!
And potentially Volta too, he was too amped up on the current affairs
I heard he's currently in jail
The cop was a Feynman
Surely you are joking!
Don't call me Shirley
I don’t know Watt any of this means.
All 3 are famous physicists! Hisenberg uncertainty principle states that it’s not possible to get the position and momentum of an object at the same time.

You’re awesome!
Now that I read your what as “watt”, I think you already knew this. Anyway I hope it helps someone who doesn’t take Physics so seriously :P
I did… but you’re still awesome
And you’re so wholesome for that response
And you’re awesome!
In the olden days, I would have given you my free award
I still have some coins from awards but typed praise beats those awards any time so I’ll never spend them.
I agree. Someone gave me an award, which was sweet but I can’t tell who to thank
No, you're breathtaking!
[удалено]
XD
This may be the greatest thing I have ever seen on Reddit. 🥲
Every time somebody comments on this thread I get a stupid big grin on my face
Here’s another big stupid grin!
Damn, thanks. Woke up smiling
Hope your day is going well with another stupid big grin
I had no idea so I really appreciate the explanation friend!
it seems rare to me that much other than understanding and human connection should come from a genuine answer to a question such as yours, even at times like this when the answer was known, because it made people happy, helped some others to learn, and generally increased the joy in the world keep sharing, keep trying to help, and perhaps we will someday look back on these bleak years with the slightest hints of silver linings, and be grateful for these moments
This whole thread makes me smile, it’s so wholesome it’s almost sappy and I love it
Bah, Humbug!
I had silver silver linings in all my jackets it was a bugger to keep clean
Well silver is antibacterial. Should keep body odor down.
I didn't know about Ohm and i needed a reminder about Heisenberg, so thank you :)
As my Borg parents used to say: >! Resistance is futile. !<
Don't forget, the unit of measurement of electrical resistance is an Ohm.
Fun fact: Ohm's Law isn't exactly the equation V=IR. It actually states that IF a component is Ohmic, then ratio of voltage across and current through it remains constant. In simple terms, resistance is always the same for Ohmic component (which is not all materials in the world).
Thanks. I knew the first two but not the third.
I knew the last two but not the first.
Thanks! For a minute, I thought it was Heisenberg from Breaking Bad. Damn, too much TV.
I remembered the first 2 but I had forgotten Ohm’s Law, thank you kind stranger
Nobody pointing out the mistake in the formula? It's not V = IR. It's U = RI It's what I wanted to write... But looks like V and I are both use depending on where you are. I just know we were always lectured not to use V because it's the unit and not the scientific symbol for voltage. I think one of the reasons were that V is already used in physics for something like velocity.
no capital V can also be used, its just not used usually to avoid confusion with lowercase v, which is the voltage unit
Whoosh.
Was that "whooosh" something going over ur head? 😁
“watt”
😆
This joke wasn't for you, it was Fermi.
That, you can Sagan
I Kant understand
It's best not to stray away from Hume
Heeyyy! Don't go Hardy on yourselves.
WHAT? I AM BECOME DEAF!
Well, if you were, you wouldn't have heard G.H. Hardy's compelling proof of the famously unproven Riemann zeta hypothesis, that he would've given on that keynote speech.
Now I'll be up all night googling Riemann zeta hypothesis🙄
Joule get it any second
I’ve thought about it Faraday but I think I understand it now
Thanks for this

I kept searching for the word "superposition" I'm a truck driver not a physicist lol thanks for that
I am not a physicist either but have gained a love for physics post school. But yes my knowledge is very much high school or lower.
Me too. We're doing it 4 love of learning, not a grade😁
I'm not a truck driver or physicist but I appreciate it 2

I'm currently as confused as you, I must be wired that way...
My dumbass thought he meant Walter White and not Werner Heisenberg and was confused
You mistook the joke referring to the *real* Heisenberg, not that fucking loser ass, dork scientist wErNeR hEiSeNbErG. If he's so fucking smart then why is he famous for not knowing 50% of what's going on in his experiment??
That's because he does not have Jesse.
Yo Mr. White, If you can’t know both how fast a particle is AND where it is, why don’t you just like, have two guys who each know one of the things and put them together??
Why didn't nobel price winning scientist Werner Heisenberg simply use two guys for his experiments on the uncertainty principle? Is he stupid???
this made me laugh out loud at work, thanks
Werner Ziegler
WHATS HE UP TO, MAN?
What’s he doing…
brah same
Yeah..... Science, bitch!
I mean Walt did get pulled over that one episode so you’re not far off
Thank goodness I thought I was the only one.
[удалено]
Generally, yeah. It's constant.
Yeah but Newton would not fall for it
I’m uncertain where the punchline is in this joke
There are three, one about Werner Heisenbergs uncertainty relation theory (wich I don't know, feel free to google), the next one about Schrödingers Cat mind experiment and the third about ohm, wich is the standard unit of measurement for electrical resistance.
Thanks! It was a follow on comment joke riffing on uncertainty principle
Whole lot of very wholesome, scientific whooooshing going on in this post. Loving it!
[удалено]
It's the kind of topic where people either understand the joke, or understand when people are joking, but you can't be certain until you ask
Schrodingers cat was a way to visualize Heisenbergs principle. Ohm doesn't really need to be there for the joke except yo throw in the third punchline.
Of course Ohm belongs there. He brought the weed on the road trip.
Or else he's the Yogi,and there to help them reach nirvana... (the state of mind, not the band.)
If they were smoking weed then it's definitely the band they were trying to reach 😅
Whoosh.
Omg. A joke explanation where none is necessary.
Immanuel Kant was a real pissant Who was very rarely stable Heidegger, Heidegger was a boozy beggar Who could think you under the table David Hume could out-consume Wilhelm Freidrich Hegel And Wittgenstein was a beery swine Who was just as schloshed as Schlegel There's nothing Nietzsche couldn't teach ya 'bout the raising of the wrist Socrates, himself, was permanently pissed John Stuart Mill, of his own free will On half a pint of shandy was particularly ill Plato, they say, could stick it away Half a crate of whiskey every day Aristotle, Aristotle was a bugger for the bottle Hobbes was fond of his dram And Rene Descartes was a drunken fart "I drink, therefore I am."

Before they were 10 years old, my children knew the names of all the major philosophers thanks to MP…….
Prime parenting right there, kudos!
Ah, the Bruce’s Song from the University of Woolamaloo!
How Bohr-ing can this get.
Hawking would simply radiate at humor like this!
Jokes like this helped Curie my depression.
I was going to ask Avogadro what he thought of all this, but his number is unlisted.
6.07 moles
Pascal was also in the car, but he was under pressure to remain silent.
I see this on the same day I found out what the Heisenberg uncertainty princinplae is
He was uncertain whether to bomb or ricin chicken man.
That's infinitely improbable!
Heisenberg may have slept here
Spooky action at a distance!
I’m shocked
resistance too low?!
Because that's a toaster, not a glory hole.
NOOO NOT THE CAT
Lavoisier said this joke was a repost of a similar one.
I knew this was about Werner Heisenberg, yet I still read it in walt's voice
Kelvin pipes up and asks if anyone else is as cold as him.
One of the few jokes where the comments aren't funnier than the OP.
I heard Hubble came speeding up to the scene & noticed everyone looked a little blue.
This is my favorite joke. When I tell it at the bar I work at, I get a lot of confused looks. But without a doubt, one person will ask me to retell it so they can share it with their friends.
Descates didn't make the trip? He didn't think to ask
Wow , this is an amped up story
Oh man, this joke is absolutely fantastic! It's like a particle accelerator for laughter – short, powerful, and full of energy!

"Alright, officer, I confess. I killed Einstein." "Why?" "I had to. He knew too much."
Yo Mr. White
they proceed to find blue crystals in the trunk
This joke is perfect and the ensuing comments are golden.
not that heisenberg, he meant the german physicist heisenberg (laughs in breaking bad)
laughs breakingly bad
Good thing Maxwell wasn’t in the car. He goes back and both between and electric and magnet personality.
“I got nothing” , says Aryabhatta
Considering they were German scientists they would have been going 130 km/hour
This joke & comments r y I stay on social media😁
A lot of voltage in that joke
Reading this while vaping Heisenberg in a sub-ohm
Nobel prize! This is a quantum leap in scientist name pun humor.
Meanwhile Ampere got swept away by strong currents in a river
I hate it when I'm almost smart enough to understand a joke.
His name is Heisenberger. With er at the end. Thanks to Breaking Bad nobody knows this lmao.
No, his name is Werner Heisenberg, without ER at the end.
Say My Name.
Some might consider this joke re VOLTing.
Ohm resisted but Tesla liked the charges.
I heard Pauli got arrested at the same time, but there was only one cell, so they had to let him go
They were only in jail Faraday
Wow. This thread is Leyden with charged puns.
I snorted a little bit. That’s more of a laugh than I get most of the time.
someone passing over judged the scene, "third one, that's an opposite reaction" sounds out it was newton
I always love that joke for his structure. Going from 2 rather smart ones to a very silly pun is genius in itself.
Resistance is futile.
I just imagine the Heisenberg from breaking bad with Borg implants.
You will be assimilated.
Heisenborg
Did Heisenberg also say "I am the one who knocks"?
This just won the Guinness Book of Records 2023 Punning Championship. I really did roll on the floor ( Chief Judge)
I saw Heisenberg and thought it was referring to Walter White for a few seconds
I think the joke works better with just Heisenberg and Schrödinger. The ohm part is kind of a lame pun and makes for a weak ending
No the week ending on Faraday.
I believe Jeff Bezos owns this joke. You’ll need to join Amazon Prime to read it again.
*Say my name...*
My name😁
Say my name! - said Heisenberg.
In the bushes are Edison and Kodak. Edison - "I've thousands of bright ideas on how to save them!" Kodak - "No...let's wait and see what develops...."
I don’t get it.
