Batman and Joker in a Physics Book

Not all physicists are dreary and uninteresting individuals; many are very amusing and imaginative. Hugh D. Young and Roger A. Freedman, two physicists, wrote a physics book called University Science With Modern Physics that made physics look fun. For example, they employed Batman and the Joker to teach the concepts of energy and momentum. Normally, you would expect to see a ball on a ramp. By the way, the question is certainly, “how fast does the Batman fly?”. You can get the book here.
