An experimental physicist visited the Natural History museum.
While standing near the dinosaur he said to his neighbor:
"This dinosaur is two billion years and ten months old".
"Where did you get this exact information?"
"I was here ten months ago, and the guide told me
that the dinosaur is two billion years old."

Physics Jokes
- One day in class, Richard Feynman was talking about
angular momentum. He described rotation matrices and
mentioned that they did not commute. He said that Sir
William Hamilton discovered noncommutivity one night
when he was taking a walk in his garden with Lady Hamilton.
As they sat down on a bench, there was a moment
of passion. It was then that he discovered that AB did not equal BA.
- Why did the chicken cross the road?
Issac Newton: Chickens at rest tend to stay at rest,
chickens in motion tend to cross roads.
- Why did the chicken cross the road?
Albert Einstein: Whether the chicken crossed the road or the road
crossed the chicken depends on your frame of reference.
- There is this farmer who is having problems with his chickens. All of the sudden, they are all getting very
sick and he doesn't know what is wrong with them. After trying all conventional means, he calls a biologist, a chemist,
and a physicist to see if they can figure out what is wrong. So the biologist looks at the chickens, examines them a
bit, and says he has no clue what could be wrong with them. Then the chemist takes some tests and makes some
measurements, but he can't come to any conclusions either. So the physicist tries. He stands there and looks at the
chickens for a long time without touching them or anything. Then all of the sudden he starts scribbling away in a
notebook. Finally, after several gruesome calculations, he exclaims, 'I've got it! But it only works for spherical
chickens in a vacuum.'
- A neutron walks into a bar and asks the bartender, 'How much for a beer?'
The bartender looks at him, and says 'For you, no charge.
- Two atoms bump into each other. One says, I think I lost an electron!
The other asks, are you sure? The first replies, I'm positive.
- What is the difference between a physicist, an engineer, and a mathematician?
- If an engineer walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle
and a bucket of water in the corner, he takes the bucket
of water and pours it on the fire and puts it out.
- If a physicist walks into a room and sees a fire in the middle
and a bucket of water in the corner, he takes the bucket
of water and pours it eloquently around the fire and lets
the fire put itself out.
- If a mathematician walks into a room and sees a fire in the
middle and a bucket of water in the corner, he convinces
himself there is a solution and leaves.
- A psychologist makes an experiment with a mathematician and a physicist. He puts a good-looking, naked
woman in a bed in one corner of the room and the mathematician on a chair in another one, and tells him: 'IŽll half the
distance between you and the woman every five minutes, and youŽre not allowed to stand up.' the mathematician runs
away, yelling: 'in that case, IŽll never get to this woman!'. After that, the psychologist takes the physicist and
tells him the plan. The physicist starts grinning. the psychologist asks him: 'but youŽll never get to this woman?',
the physicists tells him: 'sure, but for all practical things this is a good approximation.
- Heisenberg is out for a drive when he's stopped by a traffic cop.
The cop asks 'Do you know how fast you were going?' Heisenberg says
'No, but I know where I am.'
