It was the first day of PU college in Sadvidya, in the first hour, a very interesting Physics lecturer (the seniors called him 'Dandu' we too followed the trend),entered our class, without any introduction he asked one of the student (raghavan) a question "What is Physics ? " raghavan replied "Physics is reality which deals with nature and its laws" Dandu disagreed, another student answered "It is the science of matter and energy" again he disagreed many other students answered with respect to motion, energy , laws etc.. Dandu disagreed to all these answers and gave an answer which consisted all the answers given before saying, "Physics is nothing but reality which deals with matter, energy, laws of motion ..etc"
By now we had a good idea of the kind of lecturer this guy is.
Next he started talking about his favorite topic 'Super Conductors'. He sensationalized the super conductors saying
"In future train will be literally flying on the tracks and can travel in the speed of sound because super conductors.The only problem is if you apply brakes in Mysore railway station the train will stop in Nanjangud" Many of us started murmuring about what the hell is he saying?
He did notice us but did not care he went on saying "In future, launching a satellite will cost just 10 Rs!!" He explained this briefly "This is how it could be done, a circular piece of super conductor is taken and the satellite to be launched is placed on it and pushed upwards with hands, the satellite moves at velocity greater than the escape velocity and gets settled in the orbit. Thats it! its simple all due to super conductors"
This time we could not control, some of us in the last benches started laughing seeing this dandu got irritated and lost his temper, He slapped one of the student, and asked the students in last two benches to follow him to the lab, there a detailed session of inquiry about each of us took place.He said he won't be allowing us to the lab for the whole year.After some apologies, regret and excuses by us, he decided to let us go, before we left he gave us his tuition card and asked us to join his tuition center.Soon we realized what this whole episode was about.
PS-After this incident one of my friend left the college, four of the ten guys who were caught the other day joined his tuition center.
