Images of Elon Musk’s college physics homework recently surfaced online, capturing the interest of fans and prompting a response from Musk himself. Shared on social media by a fan, the images show detailed handwritten calculations from Musk’s days as a student at the University of Pennsylvania. Musk recognized the notes and clarified that the work involved deriving “moments of inertia from first principles,” a challenging concept in physics dealing with the rotational properties of objects. He also noted that a few pages appeared to be missing from the shared document.
