NANOTECHNOLOGY AND SOME USAGE AREAS OF IT The nanometer is a unit length which equals 10-9 meters‚ in other words‚ billionth of a meter. In basic‚ logical perspective‚ the definition: the science‚ which studies the matter in nano dimensions for the term “nanoscience” is quite perceptible. However‚ to deeper understanding‚ it is useful to take a look at a wide definition of the nanotechnolocy‚ provided by U.S. National Nanotechnology Initiative. According to the initiative‚ “Nanotechnology is the

Philip Zimbardo and Stanley Milgram conducted controversial experiments that had to deal with obedience. Zimbardo conducted an experiment in a mock prison that showed the roles of the guards and prisoners. Milgram conducted an experiment that tested how much pain a teacher would inflict on someone else at the command of an experimenter. The experiments that they conducted have been called wrong and unethical. Although the experiments vary from each other‚ they both changed the way the world looks
