Cartoons Defy Physics!

Have you ever been watching Looney Tunes or any superhero show and thought, "How can Bugs Bunny just jump twenty feet like it's nothing?" or "Why can the Road Runner run through that painted tunnel but not Wil E. Coyote?" Cartoons seemingly have their own set of physics laws.

Watch the 3 clips below looking for ways that the cartoons defy our laws of physics. Jot down a couple of physics laws that the character follows and be prepared to bring them to class to share.

Ex: A body will fall at the same rate as an object they dropped. (i.e. Wil E. Coyote dropping an anvil down a canyon and falling at the same rate)

*Daffy Duck

*Tom & Jerry
