21237 | Phenomenology begins from the immediate, rather than from axioms and theories [Bakewell] |
20955 | Art can make reason more all-inclusive, by articulating what seemed inexpressible [Bowie] |
22049 | Transcendental idealism aims to explain objectivity through subjectivity [Bowie] |

22055 | The Idealists saw the same unexplained spontaneity in Kant's judgements and choices [Bowie] |
22054 | German Idealism tried to stop oppositions of appearances/things and receptivity/spontaneity [Bowie] |

20624 | Work degrades into heat, but not vice versa [Close] |
20623 | First Law: energy can change form, but is conserved overall [Close] |
20625 | Third Law: total order and minimum entropy only occurs at absolute zero [Close] |
20622 | All motions are relative and ambiguous, but acceleration is the same in all inertial frames [Close] |
20628 | The electric and magnetic are tightly linked, and viewed according to your own motion [Close] |
20635 | The general relativity equations relate curvature in space-time to density of energy-momentum [Close] |
