    science extends beyond cosmology. Today the study of the underlying structure of matter‚ particle physics‚ is intimately tied up with cosmology—the structure of the universe‚ theorists argue‚ is the result of events in the first instants of time. If the Big Bang hypothesis is wrong‚ then the foundation of modern particle physics collapses and entirely new approaches are required. Indeed‚ particle physics also suffers from an increasing contradiction between theory and experiment. Equally important‚

    we are reluctant to try (triple integral calculus‚ anyone?)‚ but in my experience‚ they are fairly rare. At least until you get out to the edges of normalcy. And to some extent‚ that very normalcy is the key. To someone who has a PhD in math or physics‚ and does this kind of stuff on a daily basis‚ a triple integral isn’t even remotely scary‚ right? What you are used to‚ you are willing to dare‚ because you know all about it. The things we don’t know are the things that become difficult because

    Assignment 5 Relate Democritus’ ethics and his physics. How can he be concerned with right and wrong behavior when there are only atoms in the void? Compare his ethics to Parmenides’ Way of Opinion. ! Democritus was an atomist‚ and atomists wanted to explain the world without reasoning. They wanted to figure out the purpose‚ the prime mover and the final cause‚ which by todays standards is the more scientific approach to figuring out the universe. Questions should be answered with a mechanistic

    Honor- someone who did something to earn high respect. Honor to me is someone who put others first before thinking of themselves who is also respected. Albert Einstein is honored for the laws of nature he has discovered‚ which truly change the way we look at science. Einstein created one of the most famous known equations which is known as E = mc2. The equation says that mass (the m) can be converted to energy (and the E). A little mass can make a lot of energy‚ because mass is multiplied by c2
