Can Physics Explain the Wacky World of Cartoons?

In summary, physics can explain some aspects of the wacky world of cartoons, such as the laws of motion and gravity that govern the movements of animated characters. However, cartoons often defy the laws of physics and incorporate elements of fantasy and imagination, making them impossible to fully explain using scientific principles. While physics can provide some insight into the physics behind cartoon physics, it cannot fully explain the fantastical and nonsensical elements that make cartoons so entertaining.

I think I had completed physics up to grade 11, I should probably do 12 via correspondance or something. I like to examine weirdness in cartoon series where physics don't seem to make sense.

Wile E. Coyote is not subject to gravity until he looks down. Be interesting to put a mathematical foundation to that one.
