Which excerpt from the Frankenstein best reflects the century concern that scientists pursue their studies at any personal or moral cost?

"I had desired it with an ardor that far exceed moderation; but now that I finished, the beauty of the dream vanished, and breathless Horror and disgust filled my heart."(43).

Can you use tesla bifilar wound coil on induction motor winding?

Joseph Newman found that "free energy" could be obtained from vortex motion by electromagnetic fields spinning like Tesla claimed. Like other vortex generators, Newman's apparatus appeared to produce energy out of nowhere and the input could be used to deliver free energy. Different physicists had tested his device and confirmed that the input power in the test was 7 and 14 Watts yielding efficiencies of 700% and 1400% respectively.

In 1987 Newman had his generator operating as the engine of a car built on a Porsche chassis. Started by a battery the car ran without any input of fuel at high speed the same results Tesla achieved with his 1931 Pierce Arrow.

However, the American Patent Office refused to grant him a patent for his invention on the grounds that it was, to all intents and purposes, a perpetual motion machine, and herby not possible! Consequently the commercial development of his engine was effectively blocked. The same thing happened toTesla.

What type of scientist studies the atmosphere of planets?

This would be called a meteorologist. Typically, meteorologists are associated with reporting weather - but weather is determined by these planetary atmospheres that meteorologists spend their time studying.

How did Rene Descartes influence enlightenment astronomy?

He really did not do that much in astronomy. He was more of a trying to explain God philosophe. He systematically doubted everything including himself as a human and tried to prove everything was a mechanism or machine. Look up voltaires work on him and Francais Bacon that will explain it all to.

What human values are most important to Rene Descartes?

Rene Descartes valued rationality and human logic. Descartes is famous for his sentence, "I think, therefore I am." It was the mind that Descartes valued more than anything else.

How do scientists speculate the universe was different from what it is today?

Since the beginning as a Big Bang, the Universe has changed quite a lot. Read about "Big Bang" or "Timeline of the Universe" - for instance, on the Wikipedia - for details. The detailed answer to your question depends on what exact moment you choose. The Universe started in an incredibly dense and hot state; specifically, there was a time when there were no galaxies and no stars; even earlier than that, there was a time when there were no atoms, or even protons or neutrons - these only formed once the Universe had cooled down sufficiently.

Why have sedimentary rocks been very important to scientists who study how living things have changed over the ages?

The vast majority of fossils are found in sedimentary rocks. Fossils are they key to understanding what living things used to be like.

What are the contributions of Rene Descartes in psychology?

The field of psychology looks at the relationship between the physical body and the way that our mind works. Descartes helped bridge that gap between science and philosophy in his exploration of mind body dualism theory, especially in his last work, "Passions of the Soul".

What is the significance of the demographic transition in studies of human population around the world?

it is to show how the population grows and falls. With the rise in birth rates and the rise in death rates. The decrease in births and the decrease in death. If births increase so does the death toll. If birth rates fall so does death.

What were Rene Descartes' occupations?

It sounds like that Rene Descartes wanted to be a teacher and teach different types of subjects.

How can you use Newton's second law to find force-?

To find the force:

Mass x Acceleration

Example:

F=m*a

F=55 kg * 2.0 m/s^2

F= 110 kg*m/s^2

F=110 N

(Because "kg" times "m/s^2" is (N))

To find The Acceleration:

Net Force/ Mass
