It was also intended so that Americans with disabilities would be kept in the mainstream in terms of scientific and medical research and developments, especially opening future opportunities in Space exploration to them, as well as public policy changes, healthcare law and policy changes, and civil rights protections and public law changes for Americans with physical, mental and cognitive disabilities.

Another way of making the point is that if the Platonic world were to disappear, it would make no difference to the ability of mathematicians to generate proofs, etc., which is already fully accountable in terms of physical processes in their brains.

What it means to take the category physical object seriously as a category of being is to assert that the concept of physical objecthood cannot be reduced to or explicated in any other terms-not, for example, in terms of bundles of properties but only in terms of other items in that category.

For each physical quantity, a number of different units ( some only of historical interest ) are shown and expressed in terms of the corresponding SI unit.

Several terms are commonly used to characterize the general physical and chemical properties of the chemical elements.

Since the dawn of Newtonian science with its vision of simple mechanical principles governing the entire universe, some philosophers have been tempted by the idea that consciousness could be explained in purely physical terms.

It seeks to understand physical systems, using mathematical modeling, in terms of inputs, outputs and various components with different behaviors ; use control systems design tools to develop controllers for those systems ; and implement controllers in physical systems employing available technology.

Some might, for instance, see Christ's death and resurrection in terms not of actual physical reanimation, but in terms of the good news of Jesus ' teaching: that God's children are no longer slaves to the power of death.

The terms ' rapidly ' and ' very small ' call for empirical physical checking of the domain of validity of the above rules.

By treating the extra acceleration terms due to the rotation of the frame as if they were forces, subtracting them from the physical forces, it's possible to treat the second time derivative of position ( relative to the rotating frame ) as absolute acceleration.

In physical terms, the divergence of a three dimensional vector field is the extent to which the vector field flow behaves like a source or a sink at a given point.

Although expressed in terms of coordinates, the result is invariant under orthogonal transformations, as the physical interpretation suggests.

In physical terms, dimension refers to the constituent structure of all space ( cf.

In addition to the academic requirements for graduation, Dartmouth requires every undergraduate to complete a swim and three terms of physical education.

But it has been during the last two centuries, during the scientific revolution, that our independence from the physical environment has made the most rapid strides.

The Outdoor Education Project took cognizance of the fact, so often overlooked, that athletic activities stressed in most school programs have little or no relationship to the physical and mental needs and interests of later life.

The most active preparations obtained by these two groups of investigators appear to be similar in potency, composition and physical properties.

When served in a psychological atmosphere that allows young bodies to assimilate the greatest good from what they eat because they are free from tension, a foundation is laid for a high level of health that releases the children from physical handicaps to participate with enjoyment in the work assignments, the athletic programs and the most important phase, the educational opportunities.

The standard ampere is most accurately realized using a watt balance, but is in practice maintained via Ohm's Law from the units of electromotive force and resistance, the volt and the ohm, since the latter two can be tied to physical phenomena that are relatively easy to reproduce, the Josephson junction and the quantum Hall effect, respectively.

The most commonly used physical therapy interventions for cerebellar ataxia are vestibular habituation, proprioceptive neurofaciliation, Frenkel exercises, and balance training ; however, therapy is often highly individualized and gait and coordination training are large components of therapy.

In the Anticlaudianus he sums up as follows: Reason, guided by prudence, can unaided discover most of the truths of the physical order ; for the apprehension of religious truths it must trust to faith.

On slower or congested links ( 622 Mbit / s and below ), ATM does make sense, and for this reason most asymmetric digital subscriber line ( ADSL ) systems use ATM as an intermediate layer between the physical link layer and a Layer 2 protocol like PPP or Ethernet.

The fundamental operation of most CPUs, regardless of the physical form they take, is to execute a sequence of stored instructions called a program.

The most influential modern physical theories of consciousness are based on psychology and neuroscience.

In major modern economies such as those of the United States or the Euro Zone, most money is electronic, but the " currency " of these polities may, depending on context, include all money or just specie ( i. e., various physical representations of money ).

Among the teachings of Jesus Christ in the Gospel of Luke and the Gospel of Matthew, the message to his followers that one should " Turn the other cheek " and his example in the story Pericope Adulterae, in which Jesus intervenes in the stoning of an adulteress, are generally accepted as his condemnation of physical retaliation ( though most scholars agree that the latter passage was " certainly not part of the original text of St John's Gospel ") More militant Christians consider Romans 13: 3 – 4 to support the death penalty.

The atoms in molecules, crystals, metals and diatomic gases — indeed most of the physical environment around us — are held together by chemical bonds, which dictate the structure and the bulk properties of matter.

Yet, due to easier physical implementation of classical controller designs as compared to systems designed using modern control theory, these controllers are preferred in most industrial applications.

* The explanation most commonly offered is simply that, despite their physical resemblance, Superman and Clark are perceived as being too different in mannerisms and personality to be the same individual.

Diamond is renowned as a material with superlative physical qualities, most of which originate from the strong covalent bonding between its atoms.

By including mind in the realm of matter, Samkhya-Yoga avoids one of the most serious pitfalls of Cartesian dualism, the violation of physical conservation laws.

was conferred upon Brewster by Marischal College, Aberdeen ; in 1815 he was made a member of the Royal Society of London, and received the Copley medal ; in 1818 he received the Rumford Medal of the society ; and in 1816 the French Institute awarded him one-half of the prize of three thousand francs for the two most important discoveries in physical science made in Europe during the two preceding years.

His most recurring themes deal with questions of death, including its physical signs, the effects of decomposition, concerns of premature burial, the reanimation of the dead, and mourning.
