Space and time are ontologically peculiar entities. On the one hand, they seem to be at the forefront of our experience. On the other hand, they seem to be merely relations between objects. Thus, the ontological status of space and time is a controversial issue that philosophers have been grappling with for centuries. Empiricists claim that all of our knowledge begins with experience. They emphasize the limited role of reason in our everyday lives. Thus, feelings and instincts take over and philosophical doubts seem prevalent.

If you were an empiricist, then how would you go about explaining space and time? I would like you to adopt this position of empiricism and provide an account of space and time itself. Please refrain from using any outside material here. I would like original thoughts about this issue. Although this topic has been discussed in many of the (hard) sciences, I would like you to provide a philosophical position.

In the image, the arrow is pointing to a celestial object. which attribute disqualifies the object from being a planet?

You have been consulted by the mobile phone company hookup about a new augmented reality product called “brows”. they want to develop an alternative to google glasses, which, you recall, is a proposed new product which plans to superimpose a whole range of wireless google services over the user’s ordinary vision of the world. these appear in little circles and ovals, and let you phone people, take photographs, navigate across cities and inside buildings, find shops and update your social media. brows would do this too, but not be limited to special google services. the user would wear a small cylinder-shaped device designed to fit on top of their existing eyewear (glasses or sunglasses). it would project a reversed image onto the inside of the lenses, the reflection of which would be in focus for the user. instead of voice control, the user would control the device by eye and neck movements, which the device would track. the device would connect via bluetooth to the user’s phone, which would supply most of the computing power and wireless connectivity. hookup also wants to know what existing services would be most in demand, and which would not work well with brows. using your knowledge of augmented reality, wearable technology and interface design, is the project feasible? if not, why not? if feasible, how could the product need to be modified for a better experience?

Agas contained within a piston-cylinder assembly undergoes three processes in series: process 12: compression with pv= constant from 1 bar and 1 liter to 4 bar. process 23: constant pressure expansion to 1 liter. process 31: constant volume calculate the pressure and volume at each state, and sketch the processes on a p-vdiagram labeled with pressure and volume values at each numbered stat
