You're probably all going to pretend you don't know me after this, but anyway:

Two cats are sat on a roof inclined at 30 degrees, which one falls off first?

The one with the lowest mew (µ)

Explanation (because I can imagine some won't get it): Friction = µr, therefore a lower µ means less frriction, so fall off sooner.

Flyo, never mind understand it, I can't even see it:blink: :laugh:

Has the punchline been missed off, or am I just totally thick? :blush:

Here's the punchline, for what it's worth. :p

"I can imagine some won't get it". Har de har.

It's in white so you don't see it...
Highlight it and it appears!

I've seen the punchline, and still don't get it. Am I thick? :( :blush:

yes, yes you are:ninja:

yes, yes you are:ninja:
So, does that make two of us? :ninja:

µ is the Greek letter "mu" (which sounds like "mew"). Mechanical mathemeticians use this symbol to represent the amount of friction (the "coefficient of friction') between two objects. The less friction, the more likely the cat is to slip.

You probably have to have studied physics or maths at A level at least, to have come across it. So no, not thick; you just made rather more sensible educational choices. :) ;)

Plus it was late, and my brain wasn't functioning at 100%.

Actually, looking at your explanation is making my head hurt. It's not so much as a joke than an A-level maths paper question.

I'm glad I only took it to GCSE level now. :)

(but thanks :))
