When a clown threw a pie at another clown's face, both clowns vanished. Why?

They had a face difference of one pie.

On edit
Additional hint, if needed.
What is the minimum phase (not face) difference for destructive interference of two waves?

I have no idea what that is or means. I did look at the spoiler message.

"They had a face phase difference of one pie ##\pi\,##."
So when added together they canceled out each other.

This probably would have landed better in the lame math jokes thread. :wink:

How do you tell the difference between a physicist and a trade-union leader?

Ask them to pronounce "unionized".

Ask them to derive Newton's form of his law of gravity from Poisson's equation.

I think it could have gone both ways. Interference (destructive interference in this case) is a big thing in physics (interferometry, beam forming, double slit experiment, just to name a few).

@kuruman is doing a ~1 per day lame joke from an old (11 year old) list of physics jokes he dug up.
