Barometer

A very smart lecturer always loves to teach his students about life. Here’s one of the greatest tales told by him:

A man was being told to measure the height of Chancellor Complex – with a barometer. And he said he got 3 ways to do it.

1) Measure the pressure difference at the top of the building and the ground floor and do some super awesome engineering calculations with intelligently derived equations by professors just to obtain the height.
2) Handsomely let go of the barometer from the top floor and awesomely measure the time it takes to reach the ground and piak. Owh, don’t include the time it piak anyway. And remember to calculate the weight of the barometer before you...….let….......go….. piak!! Opps, too late, eheh..
3) Gracefully walk into the building, towards the security holding some awesome riffle. Calmly tell him “sak-Q lengchai, this barometer is yours if you can tell me the exact height of this building we’re standing on. Don’t take this as bribery tough, it’s just a lovely gift as appreciation in helping me to cheat.” Don’t forget to grin by the end of the sentence, it makes you look cool.

And hence the lecturer asks his student what is the moral of the story. All the students answered wrongly. The actual moral of the story is………if you had a barometer then you can solve anything, with 3 methods. Go get a barometer for your finals. Good luck for your finals to all UTPians!
