And yes, it has a football helmet and a football that, other than being part of the material the duck is made of, has no real way to stay on the duck, seeing as the wings are kinda bent the other way. So why do I have it on my desk rather than the bathroom? Or a better question is, WHY do I have a rubber ducky? I got it as a party favor at my mom's coworker's child's 1st birthday, even though it really was meant for the little 5 year olds running around, expending their massive amounts of sugar that they were somehow born with. It's never really left my computer desk, probably since I'm too lazy to do anything else with it.
As I was randomly moving it back and forth between my fingers, I became aware that I was doing (actually, NOT doing) work. When the duck is pushed to one side, it becomes displaced, and I'd be able to calculate just how much work has been done in that one move alone. But as it is pushed back to its original position, displacement becomes zero, and no work has been done. Although I continue to displace the ducky, as long as it goes back to its original position, no work would be done. On a random note, because I spend my time playing with the ducky, no home-work gets done either. >.< Yay to one-year olds and my brain being easily entertained by one-year-old toys!
