Just looking at that is giving me a fucking migraine. I hate mathematics.

I'm seeing some special relativity here.

It looks like some very fucked-up relativity indeed. The first equation is the closest to real life.

This is gonna take quite some time to calcuate...

Hah. I can only read this because my handwriting in physics is just as awful XD

Yeah, it's all bullshit. The last equation especially.

Yeah, I mean it looks kind of like she's trying to find something relativistic about a falling object, but at speeds like that you can't exactly say gravity is constant. And dear Twilight needs to work on her trig subs unless I'm reading something terribly wrong. sqrt(1 - stuff^2) usually integrates into arcsine plus loose change -- it shouldn't be farting out natural logs at all.

On the plus side, this is one of the few instances I've ever seen of a cartoon at least bothering to get notation right and show something coherent at all, much less use terms that are at least structured to resemble the right ones.

Like, usually they just write sigmas with nothing next to them and shit, and the only syntactically correct thing you'll ever see is E=mc^2.

This is much better than your usual quality of background maths, though. The middle line is a legit integral, although the last one works out to gt = 1.17c.

Okay, after going over it with a fellow math geek, this is what it looks like:

Twilight missed the minus sign inside the square root, erroneously integrated it into an arcsinh instead of an arcsine, forgot the leftover term, then converted the arcsinh into natural log format, dropping an extra minus sign along the way.

This is why you don't do math when you're having a Twilight Sparkle paranoid meltdown. Minus signs, man.
