Newtonian Absolute Space When Newton proposed his axioms describing fundamental laws of physics‚ he insisted on the necessity of absolute space to a completed theory of mechanics. Absolute space can be best described as not-relationally-dependent space. Newton purports that there is something more to space than just being a vessel to conceptualize positional differences between specific bodies; he claims that there is some objective truth to space -- that spatial differences are not dependent

England and Scotland both produce scones and sweaters. Suppose the English workers can produce 50 scones per hour or one sweater per hour. Suppose that Scottish workers can produce 40 scones per hour or two sweaters per our. A. Which country has the absolute advantage in production of each good?

A refractory period is a period of time where the cells are resistant to depolarisation. There are 3 different refractory periods‚ firstly the absolute refractory period which is the part of the cardiac cycle where no further depolarisation can take place. Secondly it is the relative refractory period where depolarisation of the cells can occur but only if the stimulus is strong enough‚ and finally there is the diminished refractory period where the cells are still resistant to depolarisation but

Explain the differences between absolute and relative morality Absolute morality is when someone has a view they are sure of. This view can be applied to any life situation‚ and it is a view that will never change. It is absolute. For example‚ if someone says ‘abortion is wrong‚ and always will be’‚ then this is their absolute rule.

following URL: What is absolute zero? A According to this website‚ what is the definition of "absolute zero"? Ans: Absolute Zero‚ is when the molecules of the object can no longer oscillate/shake‚ due to the temperature being too cold‚ that kinetic energy Is too weak to do anything. The time when the oscalation is slowed to the point it can no longer be slowed down‚ that is when it has reached “absolute zero”‚ but even then‚ oscalation can never really be put to a stop.

is. The knowledge issue this brings up is: How do we know if absolute truth exists‚ and if it doesn’t what type of truth does exist? This is dependent on our perception of the situation and our ability to reason out a conclusion. For this essay I will use science‚ mathematics‚ religion and ethics as my areas of knowledge. I will present both aspects of this statement and conclude with my own point of view. Firstly‚ let’s examine why it can be deemed true but before we do that we must define what

First and foremost‚ deviant acts are utterly relative; it’s not possible to isolate certain acts and find them universally condemned by all societies as deviant. Deviant acts‚ furthermore‚ are relative to time and place. That is‚ behaviorpast and present‚ and the across the cultural spectrumin one society may not be deviant in another society.
