Can you apply philosophy in real life situation?
Philosophy is applied every day by everyone in nearly every situation. Let's start with the way you think about the world, with your opinion about "life" and "existence": "Metaphysics is the foundation of philosophy. Without an explanation or an interpretation of the world around us, we would be helpless to deal with reality. We could not feed ourselves, or act to preserve our lives. The degree to which our metaphysical worldview is correct is the degree to which we are able to comprehend the world, and act accordingly. Without this firm foundation, all knowledge becomes suspect. Any flaw in our view of reality will make it more difficult to live." http://www.importanceofphilosophy.com/Me... Every word except personal pronouns, in every language, is a metaphysical concept. Realism taught that "universals" were "in the things", as if we could extract them like perfume. But now we know they are concepts. For example, the Tibetans have 2 concepts for "selfishness": one means rationally egoistic, the other means egotistical. "Selfishness" isn't found in the "thing"; it is found in the context of the action and that is a concept. The fact that "man" is a species of "animal" is a concept. "Animal" is only what we define it to be. Some people say it is any of the higher species that is NOT man; they hate calling man an "animal". That is their way of dealing with existence; it is their worldview. As for epistemology, I call it the "roadmap" of our thinking process. A good epistemologist could listen to your first few sentences and then tell you what you think about certain things because he can read your roadmap. Ethics is created by the combination of the first two branches of philosophy, and so is psychology. Political philosophy (which is not "politics") determines how to put proper ethics into properly coded laws. Aesthetics decides whether an artist accomplished his/her goal. You do it every time you go to the movie theater and walk out saying "I HATED that movie." The WHY of why you hated it is aesthetics.
Can you give practical applications to our daily lives about the CENTER OF MASS?
The center of mass is an important point on an aircraft, which significantly affects the stability of the aircraft. To ensure the aircraft is safe to fly, it is critical that the center of gravity fall within specified limits. This range varies by aircraft, but as a rule of thumb it is centered about a point one quarter of the way from the wing leading edge to the wing trailing edge (the quarter chord point). If the center of mass is ahead of the forward limit, the aircraft will be less maneuverable, possibly to the point of being unable to rotate for takeoff or flare for landing. If the center of mass is behind the aft limit, the moment arm of the elevator is reduced, which makes it more difficult to recover from a stalled condition. The aircraft will be more maneuverable, but also less stable, and possibly so unstable that it is impossible to fly. --- http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Center_of_m... In most cases the center of mass of an object is a point with physical mass, in other instances it can be located at a position that has no "physical mass"; for example, the center of a ring (a donut) or the center of mass of a boomerang. If the object is irregular in shape, the center of mass is always located closer to the more massive end. However, as long as a "plumb line" dropped from the center of mass falls within the area of an object's base of support, an object will not topple - for example: the cantilevered balconys of Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater, the leaning tower of Pisa , a truck parked on a hillside, a race car moving through a banked curve, an acrobatic troop's pyramid act in the circus, a professional unicyclist sensing how to lean as he accommodates the various dynamically-changing weight vectors in the system to keep his center of mass above the wheel's base of support, or simply a person bending over to pick up an object from the floor. --- http://dev.physicslab.org/Document.aspx?...
