Right, it's Dodge ball Quiz time:

1. Never underestimate the learning ability of a Velociraptor. Assuming they have learned to speak English (and it is unwise to underestimate them), if a Velociraptor asked you and your friends to play dodge ball with him and his friends, what would you say:

a) "You're on, mate!"
b) "I have to go wash my hair. Maybe next week."
c) Nothing and run away as fast as possible.

2. Once convinced by the Velociraptors intimidating glare to play, what is your strategy against Team Velociraptor?

a) Hide
b) Run and then hide
c) Stand and fight

3. If a Velociraptor can accelerate at a rate of 4 m/s2 and hit a top speed of 25 m/s. Assuming they don't puncture the ball with their claw first, they can throw a dodge ball at a rate of 44.7 m/s. If one is standing 200 m away, hurls a dodge ball at you, then runs in your direction .01 s after, how long will you feel the sting of the dodge ball after being hit by it before you are devoured? Please show your calculations and provide drawings if needed.

3. I'm about to be eaten by a fucking dinosaur, I don't give two shits about the difference in nanoseconds.

Jesus Christ. Some animals aren't supposed to be eaten. And all reptiles.

False. Humans are at the top of the food chain. All animals are meant to be eaten.

#1 That'll only make them angrier
#2 They can run almost 4 times as fast as you, so they'll probably catch you.
#3 Have you not seen Jurassic Park?

#1 Not yet, but I know science.
#2 Could you possibly be a bit more precise?
#3 Then it's probably a good thing you haven't seen it. You might not want to watch any Barney films either. Have you at least seen The Land Before Time? Everyone needs to see at least one dinosaur based film!

#1: I THINK SCIENCE IS SILLY THEY ARE ALWAYS CHANGING THEIR MINDS ANYHOW!
#2: UMM I THINK YOU WOULD HAVE TO TIME ME SOME TIME I DON'T REALLY DO THAT KIND OF THING
#3: I HAVE NOT I PREFER ANIMATED FILMS WITH LOVE STORIES INSTEAD OF SCARY BLOATED REPTILES.

#1 They're not changing theirs minds, really, they're finding evidence that makes them think differently than before. That's what science is, essentially.
#2 Okay, measured in seconds (or milliseconds if we really want to be as accurate as possible) how fast can you run 100 metres?
#3 How about Denver, the Last Dinosaur? I think you'd like it!

That's a ridiculous question. Is this assuming the ball doesn't travel at an angle to the ground?

Velociraptor attacks are no laughing matter! Oh and m/s is meters per second, not milliseconds, if that's what you were thinking of.
