First of, I want to thank all of you who came to support IDP's production of A Commedia of Errors! We raised over $4.00 x 10^3!!! But for those of you who didn't come, Ihopeyoufallinapitanddie, but anyways you guys won't understand what I am about to say, or the title of the post for that matter. In the play, Dromio of Ephesus has a large kitchen wench called Luce. When the two Dromio of Syracuse ends up guarding Antipholus of Ephesus's door, The two Dromios have a battling out over entrance. When, a midst the arguments, Luce shows up inquiring to know what's going on, she mistakes Dromio of Syracuse to be her husband and the Dromio outside to be a lolygagger...lollygagger...lollygager...trickster.
In this picture Luce attempts to bar the door shut using her extremely rotund hindquarters. As she thrusts out towards the door, she has to remain stationary, so she has to thrust out her huge "assets" as well. This obeys the conservation of momentum, since the slightly lighter upper side moves in the opposite direction and faster speed than the lower portion in order to keep the overall momentum 0.
As seen in the equation Mb(Vb)+ Ma(Va)=0
Mb= mass of the arse, Vb= velocity of the hindquarters
Ma=Mass of Luce's "assets", Va= velocity of Luce's "assets"
