Geek们谈超人电影
话说Leonard只是想邀请Penny和他们一起看个电影,然后就出现了下面这一幕:
Penny: I do like the one where Lois Lane falls from the helicopter,and Superman swooshes down and catches her. 我超喜欢那部 路易丝·莱恩从直升机上坠下,超人嗖地一下过去接住她.
Sheldon: You realize that scene was rife with scientific inaccuracy. 你知道那场景里 充斥着科学错误吧。
Penny: Yes, I know, men can't fly. 是啊,我知道人类不能飞。
Sheldon:No, no. Let's assume that they can. Lois Lane is falling, accelerating at an initial rate of 32 feet per second per second. Superman swoops down to save her by reaching out two arms of steel. Miss Lane, who is now traveling at approximately 120 miles an hour, hits them and is immediately sliced into three equal pieces. 不, 不, 让我们假设人类可以。路易丝·莱恩以32英尺/秒平方的初始加速度急速坠落;超人突然下降,用钢铁般的手臂接住她;莱恩小姐此时大约速度在120英里/时,猛撞上超人的手臂后 她会马上被切成三等分。
Leonard: Unless Superman matches her speed and decelerates. 除非超人赶上她的速度并减速。
Sheldon: In what space, sir? In what space? 哪还有时间 ,先生? 哪有时间?
Sheldon: She's two feet above the ground. Frankly, if he loved her, he’d let her hit the pavement. It'd be a more merciful death. 她离地面只有两英尺。坦白讲, 如果他真的爱她, 就应该让她直接撞地,那会是种更仁慈的死法。
Leonard: Excuse me, your entire argument is predicated on the assumption that Superman's flight is a feat of strength. 抱歉 ,你全部的争论 都只是建立在一个假设上,假设超人的飞行能力是一种力量的特技。
Sheldon: Are you listening to yourself? It is well established that Superman's flight is a feat of strength. It is an extension of his ability to leap tall buildings, an ability he derives from exposure to Earth's yellow sun.你知道自己说什么吗?这一点是毋庸置疑的啊!这是他跳跃高楼能力的延伸,是他从太阳光中获取的能力。
Howard: And you don't have a problem with that? How does he fly at night? 你没发现问题吗? 那他在夜里怎么飞行?
Sheldon: Oh, a combination of the moon's solar reflection,and the energy-storage capacity of Krypton Ian skin cells. 哦 结合月球的日光反射, 以及氪星人皮肤细胞中贮存的能量。
Penny: I'm just gonna go wash up. 我要回去洗个手先。(话说Penny已经忍无可忍了。)
Leonard: I have 2,600 comic books in there. I challenge you to find a single reference to Kryptonian skin cells.我那儿有2600本连环画册,你敢不敢去找出 所谓的"氪星人皮肤细胞"的内容?
Sheldon: Challenge accepted. 接受挑战,
Raj: We're locked out. 我们被锁在外面了。
