Yeah, so my engineer roommate told me this one, and misery likes company... Q: What do you get when you cross an Elephant with a Banana? A: Elephant*Banana*Sin(theta)
Hmm, me too. Fortunately, I don't get it... I guess that's what happens when you major in art at an engineering school...
Vector math...cross product..ring a bell? The cross product of two vectors is the product of the magnitude of those two vectors multiplied by the sine of the angle between them. You have to use the "right hand rule" to figure out the direction of the resultant vector, though.
The graduate with a Science degree asks, "Why does it work?" The graduate with an Engineering degree asks, "How does it work?" The graduate with an Accounting degree asks, "How much will it cost?" The graduate with a Liberal Arts degree asks, "Do you want fries with that?"
The graduate with a Liberal Arts degree says, "Screw this, I'm starting my own band!" The graduate with a Communications degree says, "Put me in coach, I swear I won't drop it!"
