Continuum Hypothesis in Fluid Mechanics The macroscopic behavior of fluids makes them appear to be continuous. However‚ when viewed at the microscopic scale fluids cannot be viewed as continuous. The fluid under consideration will have molecules bombarding each other. It is not possible to declare the fluid velocity at a point as there is no guarantee that the fluid molecules are present at that point at a particular instant of time. When we calculate the fluid velocity or density at a point it

Social Navigation Hypothesis suggests that conditions cataloged as "illness‚ or "disorder" were beneficial to our survival. This theory affirms that what we would categorize as mental illness benefits us by urging us to integrate for a higher rank in society. I would like to think this has no correlation with beauty‚ or weight as our ancestors did not have IG makeup tips in the past‚ nor did they care about dieting. However‚ it does indicate that our mental "illnesses" are actually the motivation

An efficient market is a market in which prices can always fully reflect available information. According to Andrei Shleifer‚ Market efficiency is theoretically based on three conditions‚ which are investor rationality‚ independent deviations from rationality and unlimited arbitrage. If three conditions cannot be satisfied‚ the market might be not efficient. Thus‚ investors’ rational behavior leads to stock market efficiency. For instance‚ when a company releases new information‚ for all investors

I have realized that whenever someone is asked for some reason the difference that we humans have with animals‚ most say something like our intelligence‚ or that we communicate with each other and they do not. Social brain hypothesis is a proposal that strives to explain that in comparison to all vertebrates‚ the primates have naturally larger brain size to the body mass. This theory goes ahead to demonstrate that the primates acquire the wider brains as a result of their struggle to manage their

CHAPTER 7 THE TWO-VARIABLE REGRESSION MODEL: HYPOTHESIS TESTING QUESTIONS 7.1. (a) In the regression context‚ the method of least squares estimates the regression parameters in such a way that the sum of the squared difference between the actual Y values (i.e.‚ the values of the dependent variable) and the estimated Y values is as small as possible. (b) The estimators of the regression parameters obtained by the method of least squares. (c) An estimator

The Transformational Learning Hypothesis initially created by Jack Mezirow is depicted as being "constructivist‚ an introduction which holds that the way students translate and reinterpret their sense encounter is‚ fundamental to making meaning and subsequently learning" (Mezirow‚ 1991).

Instrumental learning centres around learning through assignment arranged critical thinking and cause and effect of relationships
