8 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoDoes the fact that we are conscious mean that the Universe itself is capable of introspection?
WE ARE PART OF THE UNIVERSE. And since we ask all these questions about the Universe, existence and God, doesn't it somehow mean that the Universe is capable of introspection. I mean, it's like we are the part of the Universe that is thinking about itself (of course, there is the possibility of 'intelligent' life out there). Somehow it mirrors the way the human mind thinks about what a human being is.
6 AnswersPhilosophy1 decade agoHow does one calculate the pressure inside a liquid/gaseous planet?
There is a certain equation: P = P°+ ρgh which relates pressure inside a liquid with depth. Here P°is the pressure at h=0, ρ is the density of the liquid, h is depth and g is the acceleration due to gravity. But this equation assumes that ρ and g are constant, but they do vary with depth inside a planet. How does one calculate the pressure inside a planet made of, let's say, liquid hydrogen or molasses?
