A little edge logic on the 8 and the 5 and voila!#3: Belita (belita) on Aug 2, 2021 [SPOILER]
I'm stumped. I suppose it has to do with a graph where the y axis is vertical, but naught would be at the bottom of the graph, so that's the bottom of the hill. I don't understand why the cannon is at the top of the hill. Please explain it so I can try the joke out on my mathematically inclined sons.#4: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on Aug 2, 2021
In physics you subscribe a zero to indicate the position of an object at zero time. In 2d they are given as x naught and y naught.#5: Belita (belita) on Aug 3, 2021
Okay, thanks. Guess we didn't cover that in high school physics.#6: Web Paint-By-Number Robot (webpbn) on Dec 12, 2022

I don't get the image. It looks like a red cannon ball, not a cannon? I don't know what the other shapes are either.#12: Brian Bellis (mootpoint) on May 29, 2023
It is a green cannon barrel made mobile by the red wheels. This image is just as the black cannonball leaves the muzzle of the cannon.
