She said, using the boy's own words. It WAS best to learn from your peers in some cases. Youth had a way of relating to each other like she could never do. Siiiiiiiiigh.

"BUT, before we get into that...I have one more studmuffin to introduce you all toooooooooo," she hummed as she levitated the second picture off the desk and enlarged it as well. "Now, who can tell me who thiiiiiiiiiiiiis is?!"

SPOILER!!: studmuffin #2!!




After this man was identified aaaaaaaaaaaaall would become clear - even though certain daaaaaaaaaaaaaaaarlings had already pinned the tail on the abraxan.


Isaac Newton. Juliet only knows him as Newton and now that she thinks about it, she used to be confused as to why this guy doesn't have a first nor a last name. Isaac, he should remember that. Really though, that person needs a shave or a haircut. Juliet would volunteer but he's probably dead....

With another flick of the professor's wand, and with her instructions to copy. Juliet took her parchment and quill. Dipping it on the ink, Juliet started copying what was on the board:

SPOILER!!: Juliet's notes


Newton's laws of motion

Law 1. The Law of Inertia:
“An object at rest tends to stay at rest and an object in motion tends to stay in motion.”

Law 2. The Law of Proportionality:
“The acceleration of an object is directly proportional to the net force and inversely proportional to its mass.” This can be expressed in equation form:

Force = (Mass) x (Acceleration)


Law 3. The Law of Action-Reaction:
“For every action there is an equal and opposite reaction.”


Obviously reading it made no sense to her at all. It's somehow gibberish. Muggles and wizards really understood this? Weird. After finishing copy, the professor moved on to the next picture. Juliet sort of giggled when she saw the image. The Newton guy had hair and now this guy is bald. They should both be friends so he could lend his hair.

Who's this guy?

Uhmmm.... uhhhhh... Something to do with muggle transportation. Muggles have a lot of those transportation. Again without remembering the person's first name, Juliet's hand raised again "Hatchi???" she cocked her head to the side "Ho--Goooooooddard?" she smiled, not sure if she's correct or not. "the spaceship person?" or was it the airplane? Or a jet plane? Wait. Is there such thing as a jet plane? Jet?

Well she tried. She poured the soda onto her drink and began sipping once more. Whoever that person is, he must have done something it must have been something big.
