an introduction to comparative law

We are already familiar with set theory and mathematical logic from earlier classes. It has already been seen that there is a similarity between the laws stated in set theory and the mathematical logic. The operations 'union', 'intersection' and 'complement' on sets are comparable..

Introduction - The word force in common usage refers to a push or pull. The word Mass is also just as familiar as the word force. A super tanker is one that contains an enormous amount of mass. In comparison a coin does not contain much mass. During the seventeenth century Newton develope..

Introduction - Gas is one of the three states of matter - the other two being liquid and solid. A gas differs from a solid and a liquid in a number of ways. A gas fills entire space available to it and therefore it has no definite shape or volume. The molecules in a gas are in a continuou..

Introduction - The branch of chemistry, which deals with energy changes during various physical processes and chemical reactions, is called chemical energetics. All chemical reactions are normally accompanied by energy changes. These energy changes take place because energy is needed to b..

Newton's laws of motion help us to analyse many kinds of motion. But the analysis is complicated, requiring details about the motion that we simply do not kno..

In the year 1801, Robert Boyle and Charles had deduced the gas laws and proved them. They had confirmed that equal volumes of all the gases behave similarly, under similar conditions of temperature and pressure and the volumes of reacting gases and their gaseous products are in rati..

We have studied so far about equalities in a triangle. In an isosceles triangle two of the sides are equal. In an equilateral triangle all the sides are equal. But there exist several situations where we need to compare quantities which are not equal. This gives rise to the concept ..

Lets say there are 6 frogs and 2 crabs in a pond. We can compare the number of frogs to the number of crabs in two different ways: How many more frogs than crabs are there? or How many fewer crabs than frogs are there? The answer to both the questions is same i.e. 6-2=4. There are 4 more ..

The phenomenon of electrolysis is an important chemical effect of electric current. In a metallic conductor, the electric current is due to the drifting of free electrons, there is no chemical or physical change, only the generation of heat. However, in ionic solutions (electrolytes), the electric ..
