The interesting part of the show is that the Doctor has died 11 times, but is reincarnated each time with a different personality, yet retains all the memories of the previous versions. Despite having a different personality and…
The typical setup of RAS spectrometer is shown in Fig. 5. The details of how RAS works are given somewhere else[8]. Fig. 5. Typical setup of RAS spectrometer. (Adapted from Z. Sobiesierski et al, Journal of Physics: Condensed Matter 10 (1998)…
Mary Shelley’s Frankenstein addresses the issue of self-education and how it can negatively impact the lives of those who pursue it. In the novel, Frankenstein holds the agency in the formation of his worldview and social expectations. Through reading and accepting the assertions made by essentially random texts, he holds incomplete views of morality and act on ill-informed viewpoints. While the ambition behind seeking out an understanding of the world is admirable in its pursuit, its impacts…
results of urban and rural students in academic achievements. The researchers gave a hypothesis that there were no differences in the concrete operational stage of rural and urban students’ ability in solving the problems of Chemistry, Biology, and Physics in learning general science. Data was collected to review the application of Piaget’s Concrete Stage and the comparison of urban and rural students in academic achievement in learning general science. Summary The data collected was a survey…
Newton's three laws of motion consist of information about gravity, force and acceleration. The law’s where written by Newton in 1666. Each law explains a different theory about how gravity works. The first law talks about why objects stay in motion or rest unless an unbalanced force is acted upon that object. The next law explains how force equals acceleration. The third law talks about how if any action is created there is a equal and opposite reaction that appears. Each one of these laws…
History Waldorf Education The founder of Waldorf education is Rudolf Steiner (1861-1925). He is an Austrian scientist and philosophical thinker. After the World War I, Emil Molt, the owner of the Waldorf-Astoria cigarette factory, invite him to establish a school for the children of the worker. Due to the devastation after the World War I, Emil Molt asked Steiner introduce a new approach in education, which would relate to social, economic, and political life of Europe (Rudge, 2008). Steiner…
As Russell reconstructs the idea of co-presence in the light of physics, mathematics, and cosmology, he appeals to the examples of non-Hausdorff manifolds and Cantor’s threefold concept of the finite, the transfinite, and the infinite in mathematics and to the non-locality of quantum mechanics. Thereby, he renders co-presence as an infinite fractal-like character. To be more specific, gleaning from Pannenberg the idea of the dialectical mutual indwelling of the finite and the infinite,…
Plot of the Movie A Beautiful Mind is a biographical movie shot in 2001 by an American director Ron Howard. It is based on the story of the American mathematician John Nash, who was a Nobel Prize Laureate in Economics. The main actor Russell Crowe, starring as the professor J. Nash, is the promising scientist that demonstrates success in mathematics. He wins the famous scholarship at Princeton University (Lee, 2009), where he creates interesting concepts. Meanwhile, Nash starts working for the…
Rene Descartes as a famous philosopher, mathematician and scientist in seventieth century has introduced a new method for recognising and distinguishing truth from untruth. Descartes believed that this method could be useful for every body since reason is same for all people. The aim of this essay is to demonstrate Descartes’ method in three parts. In the first part it will explain that what Descartes’ method is. In the second part, it will explain the philosophical meaning of this method. And…
In the chapter “Democritus, Sophie is asked “Why is Lego the most ingenious toy in the world?”(Gaarder 44). This question then leads to the philosopher, Democritus, who is known for the atom theory. Alike the structure of legos, he believed all atoms that made up the universe were “eternal, immutable, and indivisible”(Gaarder 45). Furthermore, Democritus believed all atoms were firm and solid and were all different. Since they were all different, he thought they could join together and form all…
