      "That's fairly simple, Velocity is the displacement divided by the time. Though depending on what you're doing also depends on what velocity you're looking for, but that's for later on in the class." Don smirks a bit, then thinks of another question. "Alright, how about something a bit more challenging. If the force is seventeen point three and the distance is twenty-eight meters, what is the work?" | ||||

      "Look, I go with the simple answer unless someone says otherwise." Vincent says, shrugging a bit. He does tart looking unhappy at the question though. He's one of those people who try to do math in their heads....unless it's test time. It's mostly just being stubborn. "474.4?"

      "Close, but wrong, it's 484.4 for the work. So it looks like you're the first one to toss a possession in the pile. Wonder what it will be." Watching Vincent he waits to see what he does. He'll have to purposely answer one wrong soon just so that Vincent doesn't start feeling awkward. "And there's nothing wrong with giving simple answers in my opinion, but you'll get points taken off if you don't show your work on assignments and tests."

      Vincent kind of flops over, making an unhappy noise. "Noooooo." It's not a no to tossing something in, it's just a general no. He just thinks for a moment before kicking off his shoes and taking off a sock. "Here, have a sock." He kind of snorts a bit. "I don't think you should have to show your work if you can do it with a calculator or in your head, if you want to. But that isn't going to happen."

      Don raises a brow when Vincent vehmently says no, but then laughs when he puts the sock in the pile. "I honestly didn't think you'd start with a sock. Sorry, can't help but laugh at that. Alright then, it's your turn now to ask me a question. Throw anything that you like at me, but just be sure you know the answer because its not fair if you don't and I gave the correct answer." He winks mischievously at Vincent, as if contradicting what he said since Don has been through the class before. | ||||

      Vincent frowns a bit, almost pouting. "I am willing to part with my sock. It was the first thing that came to mind really." He says shrugging a bit. He ends up blushing a bit at the wink, embarrassed a bit. "Alrighty then, time is 57 seconds and speed is 12 meters per second, what's the distance?" He's pulling numbers out of his mind, figuring the answer as he goes.

      "That's simple, fifty-seven seconds times twelve meters per second equals six hundred eighty-four meters as the distance since the seconds cancel out and you're left with the distance traveled. So, am I right?" Don smiles, having fun himself with this game with them just going back and forth with questions. Though he might purposely get the answer wrong for the next one just so that Vincent doesn't feel so bad.

      Vincent just kind of blows a raspberry for the hell of it. It's a moment of childishness. "Yep, you're right." He's not good with coming up with complicated problems or anything. And if a person understands the 'simple' versions, they can figure out the harder ones halfway at least. "So....next question?"

      Don chuckles, finding nothing wrong with Vincent being a bit annoyed by him, its bond to happen, "Alright, nest one then. If the spring constant is four N/cm and the and the extension is twenty cm, what is the load on the spring? Now don't forget your units, you can have points taken off for not labeling them."

      Vincent wants Don to miss one at least. Just one, or maybe more. He just makes this weird face, tilting his head a bit as he tries to brain the answer. He has to brain where the numbers go in the formula. "80N?" (Somewhere says N-joules...I thought they were newtons? Idek. My brain no retain information now) | ||||

      "That's correct, see, you're not too bad at this, you've only gotten one wrong so far. So now it's you're turn to ask me a question. The most common mistakes usually is with common mathematical errors, like adding something wrong or dividing by the wrong number. So I'm just as easily able to make a computational error as you are to be completely honest. Which is why is suggested a person looks over their answers before turning in their test."

      "Well, I'm not too worried about that right now....mainly because this doesn't affect my financial aid or eligibility to keep being in college or anything." Vincent shrugs a bit. "So there's a lot less stress about it and all." He says. "What's the formula for efficiency?" He says before flopping on the bed a bit.

      "That would be the useful work divided by the total work, then multiplied by one hundred. It's used to determine if the system is wasting energy or if its working efficiently...Damn, forgot it was supposed to be one hundred percent, not one hundred." Don shucks his tongue, acting like he's made at himself for forgetting that part when actually he purposely left out the percent.

      Vincent snorts a bit, shrugging as well. "Long as you remember it come test time, that's the most important part." He's not going to be too anal about things. It is wrong mind, but if it was a test and he was a teacher, he'd give most of the credit. Forgetting a percentage sign shouldn't be a complete miss. He just looks at Don, raising an eyebrow as he wonders what he's going to throw in.

      Sitting forward some Don reaches into his back pocket and pulls out his wallet. Quickly opening it he removes his driver's license and student identification, placing them on the stand next to his bed. Then he folds the wallet back up and places it in the pile with Vincent's sock. "There's not much cash in there, and I can easily have new credit cards issued if need be, so its not that big of a lose to toss that in there. I think the wallet itself might be more worthwhile to be completely honest." He laughs a bit nervously since it was a wallet that his aunt on his dad's side had given him. It was supposed to be some kind of expensive name brand thing that cost her roughly one hundred dollars, though probably worth less now. | ||||

      Vincent tilts his head a bit as he watches Don. "You have a credit card?" He barely has a bank card....which has like no money on it at the moment that's to textbooks and school supplies, but at least it was something he needed. That's the only positive he has.  He shrugs a bit. "I really have no clue on wallets, long as they hold what's needed, I don't care either way." Cheap, expensive, whatever it doesn't matter to him.
