In general physical situations are not purely described by plane waves, so for generality the superposition principle is required ; any wave can be made by superposition of sinusoidal plane waves.

Astral projection is often experienced as the spirit or astral body leaving the physical body to travel in the spirit world or astral plane.

Evidence for objective reality of projection on to the etheric plane ( a near-copy of the physical plane ) is sometimes suggested when people, such as patients during surgery, describe OBEs in which they see or hear events or objects outside their sensory range ( for instance, Pam Reynolds reported experiencing an OBE during brain surgery and described a surgical instrument she had not seen previously, as well as conversation that occurred while she was under anethesia ).

The implication of CPT symmetry is that a " mirror-image " of our universe — with all objects having their positions reflected by an imaginary plane ( corresponding to a parity inversion ), all momenta reversed ( corresponding to a time inversion ) and with all matter replaced by antimatter ( corresponding to a charge inversion )— would evolve under exactly our physical laws.

This religion, unlike so many others in the galaxy, is unique in that the religious figures are in fact physical ( but non-corporeal ) entities, although not on the same plane of existence ; see Bajoran Prophets.

Although height is relative to a plane of reference, most measurements of height in the physical world are based upon a zero surface, known as sea level.

: with great ingenuity foresaw in a qualitative fashion that physical matter might be conceived as a curved ripple on a generally flat plane.

Astral projection or travel denotes the astral body leaving the physical body to travel in the astral plane.

The plane wave spectrum is often regarded as being discrete for certain types of periodic gratings, though in reality, the spectra from gratings are continuous as well, since no physical device can have the infinite extent required to produce a true line spectrum.

Montessori characterized the third plane by the physical changes of puberty and adolescence, but also psychological changes.

* DBMS engine accepts logical requests from various other DBMS subsystems, converts them into physical equivalents, and actually accesses the database and data dictionary as they exist on a storage device.

: The job operating or using a computer was actually beyond the electronic technology of the day, and, as a result, the question of how to get and keep the physical equipment more or less in working condition became in the early days the all-overriding concern.

Although Epicurus has been commonly misunderstood to advocate the rampant pursuit of pleasure, he was actually after the absence of pain ( both physical and mental, i. e., suffering )-a state of satiation and tranquility that was free of the fear of death and the retribution of the gods.

De Schutter told the Independent in March 2012: " What we are seeing now is that these financial markets have developed massively with the arrival of these new financial investors, who are purely interested in the short-term monetary gain and are not really interested in the physical thing – they never actually buy the ton of wheat or maize ; they only buy a promise to buy or to sell.

The American Cancer Society states " available scientific evidence does not support claims that faith healing can actually cure physical ailments.

It is more like a physical quantity, and though it can be tempting to treat height as the vertical coordinate, in addition to the horizontal coordinates and, and though this actually is a good approximation of physical reality in small areas, it quickly becomes invalid for regional considerations.

It appears to me, that the general conclusions established by Mesmer ’ s practice, with respect to the physical effects of the principle of imagination [...] are incomparably more curious than if he had actually demonstrated the existence of his boasted science " animal magnetism ": nor can I see any good reason why a physician, who admits the efficacy of the moral psychological agents employed by Mesmer, should, in the exercise of his profession, scruple to copy whatever processes are necessary for subjecting them to his command, any more than that he should hesitate about employing a new physical agent, such as electricity or galvanism.

However, materialists have historically held that everything is made of matter, but physics has shown that gravity, for example, is not made of matter in the traditional sense of "' an inert, senseless substance, in which extension, figure, and motion do actually subsist '… So it is tempting to use ' physicalism ' to distance oneself from what seems a historically important but no longer scientifically relevant thesis of materialism, and related to this, to emphasize a connection to physics and the physical sciences.

Nevertheless, the majority of prisoners did not actually adopt Communist beliefs, instead behaving as though they did in order to avoid the plausible threat of extreme physical abuse.

Beginning with Paul Dirac in 1937, some scientists have speculated that physical constants may actually decrease in proportion to the age of the Universe.

All types of reductive physicalism are grounded in the idea that everything in the world can actually be reduced analytically to its fundamental physical, or material, basis.

If they are participant in the integral physical expression of a living human being who has absorbed and metabolized them, or if they are now the physical remains of a once-living human being, the substance of what they actually are is human, hence, a human body.

Protestant beliefs of original sin, the importance of biblical reading and meditation, the acceptableness of church officials marrying, the cleansing of sin only through Christ ’ s sacrifice, and the discrediting of the Catholic belief that during holy communion the sacramental bread actually becomes Jesus ’ physical body, were all major points the Virtues expounded upon in post-Reformation morality plays.

If it were actually possible to have complete knowledge of physical matter and all of the laws governing that matter at any one time, then it would be theoretically possible to compute the time and place of every event that will ever occur ( Laplace's demon ).

The next step in autonomous behavior is to actually perform a physical task.
