(a) Make an argument for bringing to a halt the advances of technology.
(b) Make an argument that advances in technology should continue.
(c) Contrast your two argyumenets.
(a)
An argument that halts the advancement of technology.
Answer to Problem 5TE
The increase in the pollution exceedingly affects the environment. It is due to this reason that this advancement of technology must be halted.
Explanation of Solution
Advancement of technology has resulted in the deterioration of the environment. Automobiles are a perfect example of this.
With the exponential rise in the use of automobiles, various harmful effects are seen. Exhaust gases from an automobile cause an adverse effect on human health. Hence, the advancement of technology must be halted.
Conclusion:
Some of the factors associated with the advancement of technology have resulted in affecting the environment in a negative way. This argument calls for a halt in this advancement.
(b)
An argument that supports the advancement of technology.
Answer to Problem 5TE
The advancement of technology cannot be put to a halt as people get many benefits from it.
Explanation of Solution
Conclusion:
The advancement of technology has also benefited people in a positive way and hence should be supported
(c)
The comparison of aforesaid two arguments.
Answer to Problem 5TE
The advancement of technology cannot be halted but it should be continued with minimum adverse effects.
Explanation of Solution
The above two arguments are valid. Technology indeed gives rise to some adverse effects. At the same time, today’s life cannot be imagined without technology. Benefits of advancing technology out weight the adverse effects it creates. The technological advances must be continued but with minimum adverse effects.
Conclusion:
The advancement of technology should be continued keeping in mind the environment and any activity that would lead to a negative impact on it should be prevented.

- Mick and Rick are twins born on Earth in the year 2175. Rick grows up to be an Earth-bound robotics technician while Mick becomes an intergalactic astronaut. Mick leaves the Earth on his first space mission in the year 2200 and travels, according to his clock, for 10 years at a speed of 0.75c. Unfortunately, at this point in his journey, the structure of his ship undergoes mechanical breakdown and the ship explodes. How old is Rick when his brother dies?arrow_forwardHi, I have canceled, why did you charge me again?arrow_forwardNo chatgpt pls will upvotearrow_forward
- For each of the actions depicted below, a magnet and/or metal loop moves with velocity v→ (v→ is constant and has the same magnitude in all parts). Determine whether a current is induced in the metal loop. If so, indicate the direction of the current in the loop, either clockwise or counterclockwise when seen from the right of the loop. The axis of the magnet is lined up with the center of the loop. For the action depicted in (Figure 5), indicate the direction of the induced current in the loop (clockwise, counterclockwise or zero, when seen from the right of the loop). I know that the current is clockwise, I just dont understand why. Please fully explain why it's clockwise, Thank youarrow_forwardA planar double pendulum consists of two point masses \[m_1 = 1.00~\mathrm{kg}, \qquad m_2 = 1.00~\mathrm{kg}\]connected by massless, rigid rods of lengths \[L_1 = 1.00~\mathrm{m}, \qquad L_2 = 1.20~\mathrm{m}.\]The upper rod is hinged to a fixed pivot; gravity acts vertically downward with\[g = 9.81~\mathrm{m\,s^{-2}}.\]Define the generalized coordinates \(\theta_1,\theta_2\) as the angles each rod makes with thedownward vertical (positive anticlockwise, measured in radians unless stated otherwise).At \(t=0\) the system is released from rest with \[\theta_1(0)=120^{\circ}, \qquad\theta_2(0)=-10^{\circ}, \qquad\dot{\theta}_1(0)=\dot{\theta}_2(0)=0 .\]Using the exact nonlinear equations of motion (no small-angle or planar-pendulumapproximations) and assuming the rods never stretch or slip, determine the angle\(\theta_2\) at the instant\[t = 10.0~\mathrm{s}.\]Give the result in degrees, in the interval \((-180^{\circ},180^{\circ}]\).arrow_forwardWhat are the expected readings of the ammeter and voltmeter for the circuit in the figure below?
