21. Hermeneutics And The Natural Sciences
    Kuhn's notion of a paradigmcentered scientific community consequently seems analogous to Gadamer's notion of a linguistically encoded social tradition. Kuhn reports that his own development toward this idea began with his distress over Aristotle's theory of motion and the eventual discovery that Aristotle meant by ``motion'' something other than what the word signified in Newtonian mechanics. This effort corresponds closely to a programmatic definition of hermeneutics as the study of human actions and texts with the view to discover their meanings in order to understand them, agree with them or even amend them 76.

    Extractions: Next: The Notion of Up: Hermeneutics as Meta-Science Previous: Hermeneutics and the Kuhn's influential The Structure of Scientific Revolutions [79] developed a hermeneutics of the natural sciences by portraying them as historically embedded, linguistically-mediated activities organized around paradigms which direct the conceptualization and investigation of the objects of their studies. Scientific revolutions occur when one paradigm replaces another and introduces a new set of theories, heuristics, exemplars and terms. The notion of a paradigm-centered scientific community consequently seems analogous to Gadamer's notion of a linguistically encoded social tradition. Kuhn [80] reports that his own development toward this idea began with his distress over Aristotle's theory of motion and the eventual discovery that Aristotle meant by ``motion'' something other than what the word signified in Newtonian mechanics. This effort corresponds closely to a programmatic definition of hermeneutics as the study of human actions and texts with the view to discover their meanings in order to understand them, agree with them or even amend them [76]. Debates around Kuhn's thesis have spurred often grudging concessions that data, facts and law-like relations are theory-dependent rather than verifiable, coherent, and independent of the scientific theories in which they are embedded [81: 33]. Noting the inescapable theory-dependence of observational sentences and the incommensurabilities across paradigms, Feyerabend [82, 83] reaches the radical conclusion that no methodological standards can legitimately be applied. He therefore advocates a ``methodological anarchism'' that proceeds from the slogan, ``in science, anything goes!'' Feyerabend's doubts about the possibility of inter-paradigm communication closely resemble Gadamer's doubts regarding the accessibility of alien traditions.

22. Fizzics Fizzle: Intermediate: Mechanics: Circular Motion
    Circular motion. Newton's first law states that an object in motion remainsin motion at constant velocity unless acted upon by an outside force.  
    http://hyperion.advanced.org/16600/intermediate/circularmotion.shtml
    
    Extractions: Newton's first law states that an object in motion remains in motion at constant velocity unless acted upon by an outside force. If the force is applied perpendicular to the direction of motion, only the direction of velocity will change. If a force constantly acts perpendicular to a moving object, the object will move in a circular path at constant speed. This is called uniform circular motion. Have you ever been in one of those amusement park rides where you are spun around and around? Did you feel as if you were pressed against the outside of the circle? Many people call this the centrifugal force. However, a centrifugal force does not exist. The only force acting is the centripetal force, which is pulling you inward toward the center of the circle. The reason you feel a centrifugal force is because the car that you are in is pulled toward the center of the circle, but due to Newton's first law, you want to keep going forward.

24. Fizzics Fizzle: Intermediate: Mechanics: Simple Harmonic Motion
    Simple Harmonic motion. An object is said to be in simple harmonic motion if thefollowing occurs It moves in a straight line. A variable force acts on it.  
    http://hyperion.advanced.org/16600/intermediate/simpleharmonicmotion.shtml
    
    Extractions: An object is said to be in simple harmonic motion if the following occurs: There are two basic examples of simple harmonic motion: springs and pendulums. A spring that is oscillates an attached mass back and forth on a frictionless surface is an example of simple harmonic motion. The magnitude and direction of the force in terms of its displacement is: k is a constant for the particular spring and x is the displacement. The right side of the equation is negative because the force always acts opposite the displacement (positions 2 and 4 on the illustration at right). No force is acting when the mass returns to its original position (positions 1 and 3), but the mass keeps moving because it was moving before. In addition, at the original position, the mass is moving at its highest speed. Once it passes the original position, the force acts to slow it down and move it in the opposite direction. The entire cycle repeats again and again in a certain period of time.

The sketch at the right shows the path the apple followed when watched by an observer looking on from the side. The apple is moving from the left to the right. Five points are marked on the path. Ignore air resistance. (a) Make a copy of this figure. At each of the marked points, draw an arrow that indicates the magnitude and direction of the apple's velocity when it passes through that point. (b) Make a second copy of the figure. This time, at each marked point, place an arrow indicating the magnitude and direction of any force the apple feels at the instant it passes that point. 2) Student A says: Galileo said all objects fall with the same speed. I know that's not true. If I drop a balloon and a billiard ball the balloon falls more slowly. Galileo was wrong. Student B says: No. Galileo only said two heavy objects fall with the same speed. If I drop a steel ball and a wooden ball they hit the ground at the same time.

This mass contributes essentially nothing to the moment of inertia of the earth because it is located at the poles, close to the axis of rotation. Estimate the change in the length of the day that would be expected if the polar ice caps were to melt and the water were distributed uniformly over the surface of the earth. Hint: The moment of inertia of a thin spherical shell of radius r and mass m is (2/3)mr 2) An object is clipped to the edge of a disk that is rotating with uniform circular motion. At time t=0 it is at the position shown and it has the velocity shown. It travels around with the disk for a full rotation. A series of graphs is shown below. Identify which of these graphs could represent the following six items (if it had the appropriate scales): (a). The x component of the object's velocity.

    http://www.shef.ac.uk/uni/academic/N-Q/phys/people/vdhillon/teaching/phy105/phy1
    
    Extractions: It is sometimes more useful to think of orbital motion in terms of the energy of a celestial body rather than in terms of the forces that are acting on it. In particular, we will concern ourselves with kinetic energy - which represents the energy associated with a body due to its motion - and (gravitational) potential energy - which represents the energy possessed by a system by virtue of the relative positions of its component parts. If we imagine a satellite of mass m a distance r from the centre of its planet of mass M M m ) moving at a speed v . Then using Newton's law of gravitation and equating it to the centripetal force, we find:

    Extractions: Journal of Chemical Engineering of Japan, vol 26 no 3 pp 297-302(1993) [Japanese] MECHANICS OF MOTION AND DEFORMATION OF A SINGLE BUBBLE RISING THROUGH QUIESCENT HIGHLY VISCOUS NEWTONIAN AND NON NEWTONIAN MEDIA TOSHIRO MIYAHARAAND SHUICHI YAMANAKA Department of Applied Chemistry, Faculty of Engineering, Okayama University, Okayama 700 Key Words: Bubble, Drag Coefficient, Bubble Shape, Bubble Terminal Velocity, Bubble Rocking, Viscous Newtonian Liquid, Non-Newtonian Liquid The present paper, which is predominantly experimental, provides information on bubble shape, drag coefficient and bubble rocking in highly viscous Newtonian and non-Newtonian media, which was hitherto lacking. Results covering a wide range of bubble size (about 0.2-3 cm equivalent spherical diameter) are reported. The observed changes in bubble shape as the ratio of the major axis of the bubble to equivalent spherical diameter and the aspect ratio are shown, and empirical correlations are obtained. The drag coefficient calculated from the terminal velocity data for gas bubbles provides reasonable agreement with the Hadamard-Rybczynski equation in both highly viscous Newtonian and non-Newtonian media in the low Reynolds number region. Furthermore, bubble rocking caused by wake shedding was observed in the higher Reynolds number region in non-Newtonian media. The Strouhal number including bubble rocking frequency is correlated with the Reynolds number and the Morton number.
