Physics songs
 

I'm very bored since I really do not have to do my homework since I am going to a amusement park tomorrow.(yes I love field trips) So being the geeky ap physics nerd that I am I found this stuff.

One physics song is more than enough but lots of them ackkkk run away. And they are pretty catchy tunes.

I know a chemistry one :) More of a quick rhyme..

Little Timmy was a chemist
Little Timmy is no more
What he thought was H2O (Water)
Was H2SO4 (Sulfuric Acid)

So yeah.. I have nothing for physics :)

The classic!



The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furance.
Where hydrogen is built into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees.

Yo-ho it's hot.
The sun is not
a place where we could live.
But here on Earth, there'd be no life without the light it gives.
We needs its light, we need its heat, we need its energy.
Without the sun, without a doubt, there'd be no you and me.

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furance.
Where hydrogen is built into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees.

The sun is hot...

It is so hot that everything on it is a gas: iron, copper, aluminum and many others.

The sun is large...
If the sun were hollow, a million earths could fit inside, and yet, the sun is only a middle sized star.

The sun is far away...
About 93 million miles away...and thats why it looks so small.

And even when it's out of sight, the sun shines night and day.

The sun gives heat , the sun gives light, the sunlight that we see.
The sunlight comes from our own sun's atomic energy.

Scientists have found that the sun is a huge atom-smashing machine. The heat and light of the sun comes from the nuclear reactions of hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen and helium.

The sun is a mass of incandescent gas,
A gigantic nuclear furance.
Where hydrogen is built into helium at a temperature of millions of degrees.

-- Why does the sun shine? They Might Be Giants.

Here is one that a teammate made up yesterday while we were driving to the tune of 99 bottles of beer on the wall:

99 miles to <destination> on the road! 99 miles to <destination>! If the fabric of space-time just happened to fold, 98 miles to <destination> on the road!

I thought it was pretty cool for just making it up on the spur of the moment.

They Might Be Giants also have (has?) a song called "Particle Man" that includes the line:

When he jumps in water does he get wet,
Or does the water get him instead?

Clever.

Look up Tom Lehrer, he is great! They Might Be Giants also have a few good science songs.

Twinkle Twinkle Little Star
Power equals "I" squared "R"

Ohh, Ohh, now I see!
Power equals "I" times "V"



Yeah...
Physics 2 and I got along juuuuust fine. :rolleyes:

Yeah ermmm that website if you look long enough does have a song that they sing sung by someone else.
Heheh we should get someone to sing "How Nice to Be a Physicist" next year at nationals. It is the funniest song and quite relevant today even though its 50 years old.

There once was a young lady named Bright
Whose speed was much faster than light.
She set out one day
In a relative way
And returned on the previous night!

That's my favorite physics limrick! And I enjoyed those catchy songs as well! Hooray for geeks!!!
