Would this work? I don't understand how it wouldn't work in a logical sense.

Lol >_<

Trolling aside, that one did make me laugh.

I don't understand how anyone could think this would work. The water wouldn't move.

Yeah, I know what you mean... It's almost like it's... TROLL physics. Nah, that would be crazy. It's not like there's a troll face in the image. Oh wait, there is? Huh.

No, but seriously, why doesn't this one happen?

Are you closing the box faster than the speed of light?

Obvious Troll is obvious. If you knew anything about physics you would obviously understand the theory behind this.

I love these collector pics.

No, but if the light is continuously shining into the box until the lid closes...? Is it due to the fact that no mirror is perfectly reflective, so the light is completely absorbed before you can open the box again? Idk, it just seems like a surprisingly valid question for a "troll physics" post.

>> No.2041378

>>2041320

Everything else aside, the only light source is external, and you're not closing the box faster than the speed of light.

Even if the light is shining during the closing process, it'll still 'escape', out the same area that it's coming in.

You are precisely right.

>> No.2041513

>>2041378

So what if someone were to leave the flashlight INSIDE the box? Would the light just become heat?

>> No.2041520

>>2041513
Yes, light is absorbed by the mirrors, and the energy becomes heat.

>> No.2041594

>>2041520
How would you know the flashlight was even working when you closed the lid?
