splat. i'll bet you're sitting next to someone who knows what the speed of the splat is, at least the upper speed, check it out. what's the maximum falling speed for planet earth? what's the answer, gang? 11.2 kilometers. 11.2 kilometers per second, right on. it's gonna be the same speed it takes to escape. how fast it has to go to get out there will be how fast it would fall back in again 'cause what slows it down-- hey, hey, hey, and it all ties together. are you ready for quiz that'll take care of all of mechanics? a little sample quiz, here we go. look over here, folks. here's a satellite going around in elliptical orbit around the earth. i'm gonna ask you a bunch of questions and see if you can answer the questions. at what point a, b, c, d is the gravitational force that acts on that satellite a maximum? here, here, here or here? write on your paper a 'a,' a 'b,' a 'c,' or a 'd'. or if you think the gravitational force on the satellite is the same everywhere, then you write down a 'e.'

look at it, splat. now, how was i able to break that? because i changed the momentum of my hand in a short time or a long time? so short you hardly saw it. isn't that true? how about i do it like this, gang? [makes sounds] no way. no way. [makes sounds] done. and, furthermore, if i do it in such a way, i don't pull my hand back. but if i do it in such a way that my hand bounces off there, whoo, honey, that is gonna break. that is gonna break, because bouncing gives a lot more impulse than just hitting. you're walking along the street. there's a plant pot up above. the plant pot comes down, hits you on the head. boom. it sticks to your head. you're in trouble. but the plant pot comes down and--ba-boom-- bounces off your head. honey, you are really in trouble, because the bouncing gives more impulse. a lot of people have trouble understanding that. let's see if we can understand it with this idea. let's suppose you're standing on a skateboard right here. you're in the skateboard. and on the skateboard, someone throws you a ball. okay? the

she, the fifth, in 10 days who's blood splat erred the walls and dripped down the walk. this one in front of her home celebrating turning 23, a shining star her brother said. my heart, her father moneyed, a friend my opened to her sister known since the girl was 12 and he 11. and now each day i watch my son suck in his tears and stiffen from the pain that thickens as the pile of his dead grows beneath his heart. deep inside his bones ache. and will not let him sleep lest those faces fill his dreams. i try to massage love into his neck and shoulder as we talk anguish from his locked muscles we don't speak of airny his pretend wife and confident. he reminds me it is not summer i should be real it can only get worse. he dresses in white and leaves my home as the key turns the bolt, i smell the mossy scent of morning seep from under the designer purfume he left in his wake.

you can tell i'm not that splat. it's good that the teachers are fighting back.liked rahm emmanuel, let me be clear about that, because he's one of the most conservative democrats in the country and a wolf in sheep's clothing. he comes in here and says i'm going to give a big raise. just kiddingic i'm not going to give you a big raids. 4%? no, i'm not going to give that you 4% either. if i was the teachers i would be pissed. on the issue of evaluation. of course the teachers need to be evaluateeled. the question is how. >> right, there are a lot of things to keep in mind. i'm more torn on this issue than you are. when you look at the deficit within the school district they're facing $656 million budget shortfall. they have underfunded pension and it's a huge disaster. >> cenk: first of all the teachers did not create the deficit. and second of ram rahm emmanuel said he was going to increase the hours of the school. then he says i'm going to increase the hours and not pay you more because of the deficit. >> i should note, rahm emmanuel said you don't want to work

because now, we got-- [makes sound] [laughs] splat. okay? a huge torque. i think of that-- [makes sound] okay? very good, lee. very good. hey, you know, sometimes the easy questions are the hardest to answer. let's suppose some kid asks you, "how come a ball rolls down a hill?" "--balls always roll down hill, honey, gravity pulling. "you want to gets to the bottom of the hill, gravity is still pulling. don't roll down anymore." you say, "when there's no more hill." the kid will, "why does it roll down the hill when it's on the hill?" and you say, "what are you asking questions like that for?" and the kid says, "because i wonder "about things like that and you're a college type "and i think maybe you can be the one to tell me. "and you would say, "roll down the hill, roll down the hill. hmm." could you guys handle it? could you answer a kid's question like that? let's take a hill here. okay. i don't have a ball but i got a disk, okay? i take the disk and i let it go and sure enough it rolls down. why? why is it rolling down the hill, gang? see this, gang? c
