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

The Brain-in-a-Vat hypothesis is a notion that originates from epistemology: a branch of philosophy that investigates the nature and limitations of human knowledge.

Should animals be used for scientific or commercial testing? From at least 1948‚ animals are being used by the U.S space program for testing aspects of space travel. Animals are used to help in medical treatments‚ determining the toxicity of medications‚ checking the safety of products for humans‚ and other commercial and biomedical uses. Though many say that there is no alternative method for researching a living organism‚ animals are so different from humans that the results are mostly irrelevant

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.
