His theory attempted to explain the universe in terms of basic forces in nature: the complementary agents of yin ( dark, cold, female, negative ) and yang ( light, hot, male, positive ) and the Five Elements or Five Phases ( water, fire, wood, metal, and earth ).

Category theory is an area of study in mathematics that examines in an abstract way the properties of particular mathematical concepts, by formalising them as collections of objects and arrows ( also called morphisms, although this term also has a specific, non category-theoretical meaning ), where these collections satisfy some basic conditions.

However it is important to note that the objects of a category need not be sets nor the arrows functions ; any way of formalising a mathematical concept such that it meets the basic conditions on the behaviour of objects and arrows is a valid category, and all the results of category theory will apply to it.

The Yoneda lemma is one of the most famous basic results of category theory ; it describes representable functors in functor categories.

Either there are some basic beliefs that we can be justified for holding, without being able to justify them on the basis of any other belief, or else for each justified belief there is an infinite regress of ( potential ) justification nebula theory.

Although most electrical engineers will understand basic circuit theory ( that is the interactions of elements such as resistors, capacitors, diodes, transistors and inductors in a circuit ), the theories employed by engineers generally depend upon the work they do.

Ohm's law is a basic law of circuit theory, stating that the current passing through a resistance is directly proportional to the potential difference across it.

In the basic version of the experiment, a coherent light source such as a laser beam illuminates a thin plate pierced by two parallel slits, and the light passing through the slits is observed on a screen behind the plate.

* That the basic layout would continue with the original's front-midship rear-drive configuration with the engine positioned ahead of the driver but behind the front axle for 50: 50 weight distribution.

Rawls used a thought experiment, the original position, in which representative parties choose principles of justice for the basic structure of society from behind a veil of ignorance.

At the end of this period a new landscape emerges: the northern Canaanite cities still existed, more or less intact, and became the Phoenicians ; the highlands behind the coastal plains, previously largely uninhabited, were rapidly filling with villages, largely Canaanite in their basic culture but without the Bronze Age city-state structure ; and along the southern coastal plain there are clear signs that a non-Canaanite people had taken over the former Canaanite cities while adopting almost all aspects of Canaanite culture.

The emphasis was put on a very fast development of heavy industry and the nation became one of the world's top manufacturers of a large number of basic and heavy industrial products, but it lagged behind in the output of light industrial production and consumer durables.

One of the basic tenets behind the self-help movement is that since a cure does not exist, quality of living can be improved by not thinking about the stammer for prolonged periods.

The basic idea behind exhibiting authentic artifacts is to provide not only legitimacy to the exhibit's historical narrative but, at times, to help create the narrative as well.

* A basic camel spin ( also known as a parallel or arabesque spin ) is performed by assuming an arabesque position ( or spiral position ) with the free leg extended behind at hip level, parallel to the ice surface.

In his landmark paper published in 1961, he described the basic concept which was later used by Allan McLeod Cormack to develop the mathematics behind computerized tomography.
