Would you give me information About Jignesh Shah CEO of MCX?
Yes I can. I have worked for him few years back when he had the ambition to do something in life but had scarce money. Even at that time he had the penchant of doing something big in life and all his thoughts plans ideas were meticulously designed towards that. Resources were never a constraint for him while creating a plan as he always managed to mobilize them. He was always very particular in detailing everything right to what kind of carpet his office should have to what image his employees should convey. All his activities during the hey days can constitute a text book story of how a common man dreams, works toward that, garners resources, be persistent, have patience and not only lead your team along but keep them in a flock with the same vision. He is one of a kind and his story will be difficult to emulate in a long time to come. PRatna
Richard Feynman died on February 15, 1988 at the age of 69.
Who scientist is named after the element seaborgium?
Inverse ! The chemical element seaborgium is named in the honor of the chemist Glenn Seaborg.
Louis Pasteur found the cause of infectious diseases. The surgeons exploited this theory through careful cleaning of hands and all their body before the surgery.
Who are the scientists that possess scientific attitudes?
Anyone who is a scientist should possess scientific attitudes, or she/he is not a scientist.

When did Adolf Hitler kick Albert Einstein out of Germany?
He was not kicked out he decided to immigrate to the U.S.A due to the rise to power of the
Nazis. Hitler had nothing to do with it on a personal level.
What were the negative effects of Louis Pasteurs work?
One potential negative effect of Louis Pasteur's work is the rise of anti-vaccination movements due to misconceptions and fear surrounding vaccines and their safety. Additionally, his work may have led to complacency in hygiene practices as people relied more on medical interventions rather than preventing disease through sanitation and cleanliness.
What are five words that describe Rene descartes?
Rene Descartes is primarily known for his work as a mathematician and a philosopher. He can also be described as a skeptic, a writer, and a rationalist.
What does scientists do to collect data remotely?
Remote sensing is the small- or large-scaleacquisition of information of an object or phenomenon, by the use of either recording or real-time sensing device(s) to collect data in inaccessible areas etc.
Is the source of earth's magnetism fully understood by scientists?
No, not fully understood but most of the source and system have understood by scientists.
How do you use Rene descartes mathematical formulas today?
Descartes' mathematical formulas are used frequently in geometry. His slope theory and other algebraic formulas related to the geometric plane are still the standard in mathematics and his ideas helped form the basis of modern calculus.
How is the scientific method based on the ideas of Francis Bacon and Rene descartes?
Francis Bacon developed a theory of 'eliminative induction.'
Induction is moving from specifics to generalities, and whilst it had been proposed as a key part of scientific method by Aristotle, Bacon adapted it. Aristotle proposed that scientific evidence should be gathered by observation, but Bacon proposed that evidence should be gathered by observation and experiments. this is known as eliminative induction as it eliminates variable factors which might be present through mere observation.
Descartes' philosophy is based around doubt. he doubts everything, and can only establish his own existence through the presence of thought. This systematic doubt, and taking nothing for granted is, along with experimentation, the foundation of science.
How would the climate be different if earth was tilted like uranus?
Year long days, wild winds, extremes of heat and cold.
Who was the first lady astronomer?
It was probably Maria Mitchell. She was born in Massachusetts in 1818, to a Quaker family, and received a good education (most girls of her era were not very well educated); she was fascinated by star-gazing at a young age, often using her father's telescope. In 1847, she was working as a librarian, but she continued to investigate the stars. That year, she discovered a new comet. By 1865, she was a Professor of Astronomy at Vassar College, and her work was internationally known.
Comments: I don't know if she was was the first, but Caroline Herschel was before Maria Mitchell.
Why do scientists want to build a nuclear fusion reactor?
The expectation is that fusion reactors will provide large amounts of energy, and that they will be relatively environmentally-friendly.
What is Louis Pasteur view on surgical asepsis?
he identified the culprit. the Streptococcus bacteria. This was a great discovery to control this surgical problems... things we cant see with our eyes.
What did René Descartes do for science?
René Descartes (31 March 1596 - 11 February 1650), was a French philosopher, mathematician, physicist, and writer.
His most notable legacy was not for science but for Philosophy. He is often called the father of modern western philosophy and his books are still considered standard texts on those subjects.
His legacy in Mathematics set the groundwork for the calculus of Newton and Leibniz, by applying infinitesimal calculus to the tangent line problem.
One of Descartes most enduring mathematical legacies was his development of Cartesian geometry which uses algebra to describe geometry. He also invented the notation which uses superscripts to show the powers or exponents, for example the 2 used in x2 to indicate squaring.
