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.

However‚ it does indicate that our mental "illnesses" are actually the motivation

A BRIEF SAPIR-WHORF HYPOTHESIS SUMMARY… October 16‚ 2010 A reasonable summary of the Sapir-Whorf hypothesis in its tractable form is that different cultures interpret the same world differently and this has an impact on how they both think and construct meaning in language; in fact‚ language shapes or influences thought to some degree.
