Physics for morons - Cats and Toast?

Question

A dropped cat always lands on its feet.
A slice of buttered bread always lands on the buttered side.
If you tied a slice of buttered bread onto a cats back - buttered side up, and dropped the cat from ten feet. Which side would it land on?

Answer 1

THe cat would defy gravity and land on the face of the person who attempted the experiment with all claws deeply embedded.

Answer 2

during the fall it will be like the feet and the buttered side will be attracted from the surfcae. following the vector of gravity and only being able to move accross the rope the slice will be eventually on the cat belly attached and when the system lands all preriquites an daxioms will be valid. the cat will land on its feet and the slice will face the buttered side facing the floor.
then the people in white (clinic) will come and pick you up for a ride to somewhere nice. with a lot of medication green fields and quite. since someone swa you and contact authorites
- Hello i can see somone throing toasted breads and cats off 10 ft high...wai wait a second . he is attaching the toast on the cat's back. oh my god he is throwing the cat and the toast the moment we speak........

Answer 3

according to scientific research done in that particular field, when cats and buttered toast come in contact with one another, they react violently. the cat's rockwell hardness drops to approximately 20 in under a second, while its velocity increases rapidly, always repelled by the butered toast. (the cat loses its temper and runs away). the butter is immediately rejected in the opposite direction as the cat and lands on the floor, butter side down. all dust particles within a radius of 20 feet are immediately attracted to the butter and stick to it. the violent reaction that happens when the cat and buttered toast come in contact is called the "that was pretty stupid" effect. however, ome theorists argue that if you were to somehow attach a peice of buttered toast to a cat's back and set it spinning, it would be suspended in the air about 3 feet from the ground and spin end over end. These theorits do not take into account that while the cats feet and the buttered side of the toast are both attracted to the ground, there is not any part of the experiment that is repelled by the ground. the cats back is completely neutral in the equation. the cat would simply fall on its side as both the cats feet and the buttered toast attempt to contact the ground.

Answer 4

The same question must have been asked already about a million times. I say that the cat would land on its paws, unless you strapped 20 pounds worth of buttered bread onto its back....
Instead, i always wondered, how would two equal cats strapped together land?

Answer 5

The probability of the toast landing butterside down is proportional to the cost of the carpet.
The probability of the cat landing on its feet is proportional to the number of legs on the cat.

Taking into account other factors such as the thickness of the toast, density of the butter, how recently the cat had the word 'Vet' said to it and name of the milk providing cow, one can calculate the value of the carpet by varying the number of legs on the cat until it hovers, rotating, just above the carpet.

Answer 6

Cat on its feet - the toast has no force toward the buttered side.

Answer 7

well if cats always land on their feet and buttered toast always lands on the buttered side, either the rope you used to tie them togeather would break or the universe would cease to exist

Answer 8

on its feet after it licked all the butter off of the toast

Answer 9

cats do not always land on thier feet

Answer 10

The cat.
