Of Love and Physics/Chemistry/Maths/Economics
koped this from 6H class blog. my friend recommended it and it's realli realli funny! =) enjoy! and don't forget to read jiayun's post below too =)
Law of Conservation of Love:
The total amount of love in any system remains constant.
Newton's First Law of Love:
A person will tend to remain not in love or continue loving the same person, unless an external net love acts on him or her.
Newton's Second Law of Love:
The net love someone has is directly proportional to his or her love momentum, and is in the same direction.
Newton's Third Law of Love:
If Person A loves Person B, Person B will love back Person A with the same magnitude but opposite in direction.
Zeroth Law of Love-odynamics:
If two people are in love with the same person, they are in love with each other too.
Kirchhoff's Love Law:
The total amount of love a person gets will be equal to the total amount of love he or she gives others.
Le Chatelier's Principle of Love:
If a person's love for another person changes, the system's love equilibrium will shift to partially counter-act the change.
Valence Love Electron Pair Repulsion Theory:
Love competitors will arrange themselves so as to minimise repulsion among themselves.
Mathematical Induction of Love:
Let P(n) be the proposition that I love you on Day n.
First, show that P(1) is true => I love you on the first day.
Next, assuming P(k) is true, i.e. I love you on the kth day, show that P(k+1) is also true, i.e. I also love you on the (k+1)th day.
Hence, by Mathematical Induction of Love, I love you everyday.
Hess' Law of Love:
The change in love composition of a system is independent of the pathway taken, and only dependent on the final and initial states of the parties involved.
Markovnikov's Love Rule:
If a guy is attached to two girls, a third girl would be more likely to attach to him.
Love Economies of Scale:
When a person gets himself/herself more girlfriends/boyfriends, he/she enjoys Internal Economies of Scale
-
Technical Economies-
Indivisibilities: Spread fixed costs such as plastic surgery, country club membership fees over larger output levels
-
Research and Development: Research for more efficient ways to woo girls/guys
-
Marketing Economies-
Bulk Purchase: Buy flowers at lower prices
-
Bulk Distribution: Cost efficient for transporting large quantities of love
-
Financial Economies-Deemed by florists as more credit-worthy
-Restaurants more willing to offer loans
-
Risk-bearing Economies-
Ability to Predict Demand more Accurately: Bear lower risks and potential losses; at least one will marry him/her in the end
-
Diversification: Fall in love for one can be offset by more love in another
-
Administrative and Managerial Economies-Cost of hiring love consultant spread over larger output
However, with too many girlfriends/boyfriends, the person will experience Internal Diseconomies of Scale.
-
Management Difficulties-
Problems in Coordination and Communication: Higher probability of communication breakdown and misinterpretation
-
Low Morale: Difficult to ensure that all girlfriends/boyfriends are happy and equally well treated
Meanwhile, as the industry grows, i.e. all his/her siblings are courting, he/she wil experience External Economies of Scale.
-
Economies of Concentration-
Trained Workforce: Whole family skilled in planting flowers
-
Better Infrastructure: Better family cars to fetch girlfriend/boyfriend; better home-cooked food to serve them
-
Economies of Information-Common information services, can exchange courting tips
-
Economies of Disintegration-Split up courting process (e.g. one specialises in meals, one specialises in movies)
However, if the industry is too large, they will experience External Diseconomies of Scale.
-Higher Input Prices
-Due to increased demand for factors of production (e.g. flowers, movie tickets)
-Florist Union more powerful, secure higher flower prices
-Increased Strain on Infrastructure
-Infrastructure stretched to its limit
-Congestion at home during weekend dinner times
