Scientists today rely heavily on empirical evidence, experimentation, and peer review to develop and validate their ideas, while Greek philosophers used more deductive reasoning, logic, and thought experiments. Additionally, modern scientists work within established frameworks and theories, building on existing knowledge through collaboration and specialization, whereas Greek philosophers often sought universal truths through individual contemplation and debate.
Inductive research approaches are more widely used than Deductive by the scientific community, but they both have there strength and weaknesses. Inductive method: -Strengths: The inductive method produces concrete conclusions about nature that are backed by a variety of observational evidence. When one of an inductive arguments premises are perceived as false, other observational evidence can be added to the premises to save the argument, this is not the case with deductive reasoning. -Weaknesses: The inductive method produces conclusions that go beyond what there premises warrant. In other words, inductive arguments take a limited amount of observations to provide a universal conclusion, which could still be false. For example, someone observes 10,000 dogs and finds that they all have flees, then inductively concludes that all dogs have flees. This is a situation where overwhelming observational evidence (10,000 dogs have flees) points to an inductively reasoned false conclusion (All dogs have flees). Deductive Method: -Strengths: Deductive reasoning dosent require painstakingly observing a variety of observational evidence to reach a conclusion. One can start off with a generally accepted axiom, or statement, and deduce conclusions based on that axiom. -Weaknesses: Deductive reasoning can make permanent the logical fallacies we have today. In other words, if you use an axiom to deduce a variety of conclusions, and that axiom turns out to be false, all of the conclusions following that axiom are false as a result. hope this helps!
Morality and ethics both involve principles of right and wrong behavior, but they differ in their definitions. Morality typically refers to personal beliefs and values about what is right and wrong, often influenced by religion or culture. Ethics, on the other hand, are more formal and systematic principles that guide decision-making in professions or organizations. Ethics are often based on philosophical reasoning and can be more universal in nature.

An inductively-compensated universal motor uses an additional inductor to compensate for the motor's inductive reactance, improving speed regulation. On the other hand, a conductively-compensated universal motor uses additional resistors to compensate for the motor's armature reaction, enhancing speed control.
Some famous philosophers of ancient China include Confucius, Laozi, and Mozi. Confucius is known for his teachings on ethics and morality, Laozi for his work on Taoism, and Mozi for his emphasis on universal love and impartiality.
Francis Bacon (English, 1561-1626 CE) viewed the universe as governed by universal laws. These laws can be discovered and tested using rational inquiry and experiment. Francis Bacon used inductive reasoning to gather small bits of evidence through experiments and drawing larger conclusions.
