ICE AGE 3
=High
Porosity Geological Formations=
Falling objects form
deep extrusions in the ground; the boundaries are clean and show a large degree
of detail; animals walk away unscathed but disoriented.
- Small cross-sectional area and high rate of speed of the falling Scrat collapse the porous ground forming a body shaped extrusion on impact. [00:03:10]
- When a mammoth runs by moments later his foot does not cause a hole because the weight is distributed across a large area. [00:03:18]
- Female Scrat pushes acorn in to the ground causing an initial extrusion, followed by cracks propagating at high velocity. [01:25:42]
=Inertia=
Inertia seems to hold
in this world.
- While sledding down the hill the Scrat let go of two eggs above his head prior to entering a hollow log, he found them where he left them after exiting the log; above his head. The eggs have continued to travel horizontally at the same speed as they were before they we let go of. Vertically (elaborate complication)[00:13:49]
- Tiger saved weasel from becoming dinner by running in to him and knocking him out of the way. [01:17:40]
This is consistent
with conservation of momentum.
=Exaggerated
Path of Action Lines=
High inertial mass.
- Scrat running in slow motion shows how exaggerated the follow through on movements is. [01:25:24]
- Facial muscles in every scene. [00:47:09]
This is consistent
with high inertial mass; which may be different then gravitational mass in this
world.
In some cases our
Physics laws are broken.
- Impossible soap bubble. Scrat jumps inside floating soap bubble. [00:20:39]
- Strech goo and stretch fight. Weak molecular cohesion. [00:36:40] [01:25:45]
=Conclusion=
- Laws often conform to our own to be relatable.
- Laws sometimes broken for dramatic effect.
