lmao... fuckin smartass
 

The following is an actual question given on a University of Washington chemistry mid-term. The answer by one student was so "profound" that the professor shared it with colleagues, via the Internet, which is, of course, why we now have the pleasure of enjoying it as well.

Bonus Question: Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic(absorbs heat)?

Most of the students wrote proofs of their beliefs using Boyle's Law(gas cools off when it expands and heats up when it is compressed) or some variant.

One student, however, wrote the following:

"First, we need to know how the mass of Hell is changing in time. So we need to know the rate that souls are moving into Hell and the rate they are leaving. I think that we can safely assume that once a soul gets to Hell, it will not leave. Therefore, no souls are leaving.

As for how many souls are entering Hell, Let's look at the different religions that exist in the world today. Most of these religions state that if you are not a member of their religion, you will go to Hell. Since there is more than one of these religions and since people do not belong to more than one religion, we can project that all souls go to Hell.

With birth and death rates as they are, we can expect the number of souls in Hell to increase exponentially.

Now, we look at the rate of change of the volume in Hell because Boyle's Law states that in order for the temperature and pressure in Hell to stay the same, the volume of Hell has to expand proportionately as souls are added.

This gives two possibilities:

1) If Hell is expanding at a slower rate than the rate at which souls enter Hell, then the temperature and pressure in Hell will increase until all Hell breaks loose.

2) If Hell is expanding at a rate faster than the increase of souls in Hell, then the temperature and pressure will drop until Hell freezes over.

So which is it?

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year, "....that it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I still have not succeeded in having an affair with her, then #2 above cannot be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and will not freeze over."

THIS STUDENT RECEIVED THE ONLY "A"

simple....yet...complex....

om my god, thay was my brothers paper, haha i know theresa

ROFL.. wow.. that was the easiest question to answer.. i prolly would have gotten a C because i would of just said exothermic.. but he had to get all fancy with his.. whorebag

^^^LOL WORD^^^
THATS WHAT I WOULD HAVE SAID

he is my idol for that shit

For the cats sayin you woulda one word answered it... it IS a university mid-term... aint some quiz... :thumbup:

I wanna have a conversation with that kid.

i seen this shit a while back, i was dying.
dude showed me, i was like, how is this a joke? then i seen the last paragraph. roflz

If we accept the postulate given to me by Teresa during my Freshman year that, "it will be a cold day in Hell before I sleep with you", and take into account the fact that I slept with her last night, then number 2 must be true, and thus I am sure that Hell is exothermic and has already frozen over. The corollary of this theory is that since Hell has frozen over, it follows that it is not accepting any more souls and is therefore, extinct...leaving only Heaven thereby proving the existence of a Divine Being which explains why, last night, Teresa kept shouting "Oh my God!"

That's the last part of the one I read.

that other last bit seems kinda fake... someone coulda just added it on

i would have answered "false" and moved on with my life

Is Hell exothermic (gives off heat) or endothermic(absorbs heat)?

False.

--------------------------

^^^??????

that piece was puuuuuure genius .... ya know we need a intellectuals forum

yup...when in doubt, answer "false"

you type to much im not reading that all.

you need to chill maybe. lol. to much rapverse for you..:nono:
OMB

too much rapverse? when youv'e got over 5,000 posts? Lmao.

Yeah whatchu talkin bout... I copied and pasted that...

if i was grading the paper and sum 1 wrote that id have to laugh my ass off

Word WTF? LMAO!!!!!!!!!

this was fucking pure genius, omfg I'm doing something like this on my next biology test

* Too many colege terms*

*Leaves thread to grab thesaurus*

lololololololol, omg this was great....... i really hope someone actually did this..... since Pop is sayin that his had another ending... this dude is awesome.... love the part about "all people must go to hell then".... ud think that the professor might flunk him tho for tryin to be a smartass.... i see it happenin all the time

eyyyuuup...
theres a lot of smartasses at UW.....
