baires: diagrams of life

Exhibit 1:


sme 1

(This is a diagram of a gorilla.)

sme 2

(This diagram shows the motion of balls being thrown from the top and bottom of a cliff.)

sme 3

(This is a depiction of a rocket launch.)

sme 4

(If this isn’t obvious, the problem tells us that this is James Bond [note the bow tie and fancy dress shoes] about to jump onto a moving vehicle.)

sme 5(This is a car driving off another cliff.)

sme 6

(This is a person jumping into a pool.)

baires: my job

I correct language in calculus, engineering, and physics textbooks sent to our Buenos Aires office from New Delhi.

Examples of what I see every minute of my 9-to-7 work day:

—   Let the radius of the circle is r.

—   From rarer medium to denser and so the light rays will get bent towards the normal and then we will have towards the normal and then we will have a inverted image of the object.

—   The major part of sound falling on wall is total internally reflected.

—   Determine the me chemical energy — (“mechanical energy.”)

—   low of since — (“Law of Sines.”)

—   average of the avenges — (“averages of the averages.”)

—   If an equation is dimensionally correct, it is not necessary that the equation is also correct because.

—   the ass per unit length — (“the mass per unit length.”)

—   Because light gravels in a vacuum than any other material, …

—   the spring by a distance of 5.00 cm from its unscratched position — (“its unstretched position.”)

—   it is inversely preoperational — (“proportional.”)

—   A car airplane traveling at a velocity of…

—   The thickness of the distance between the plates…

—   The attitude reached by the ball — (“altitude.”)

—   How well the insulated from ground [nature of slipper of shoes].

—   Easiest way is, when throw will be made then the momentum is held constant.

—   Yes, there would be more momentum than the initial because by bouncing from the object as it sticks; deliver more speed than the flight.

—   Determine and tabulate the angles of reflection and refraction for all the angles of incidence attche prisoner’s cell move?

—   The color of the object will not change, mainly for tow reason. — (“for two reasons.”)

—   an illusion of puddle water — (“a mirage.”)

—   Energy delivered by owe plant — (“by the power plant.”)

Jeebus. Crispy.

Oh, you can bet your ass I will add to this list. Wait for it.
