He says, however, that he can fully appreciate the possibility that you have shown him. He has given your message to the Three, and they are anxious to hear of the weapons you have." Arcot drew the molecular pistol, and holding it up for all to see, projected the general theory of its operation toward the physicist.
A scientist and a biologist, a pioneer of the theory of evolution, a physicist and originator of a new theory of colour, a man of affairs, a man of the world and a courtier, a philosopher, a lyrical poet, a tragic, comic, satiric, epic, and didactic poet, a novelist and an historian, he has attempted every form of literature, he has touched upon every chord of the human soul.
No, the physicist wants to understand those connections of cause and effect as necessary ones. He tries to find sequences which cannot be otherwise because they cannot be thought in any other way.
But I think that any impartial physicist will be prepared to admit that, in the present state of his science, we are entitled to conclude that energy of position is merely the result of energy of motion; or, in other words, that potential energy is merely an expression of the fact that the universe, as a whole, is replete with actual energy, whose essential characteristic is that it is indestructible.
The unattended monitor set, placed around some corner in a corridor, gave out an excellently modulated reproduction of the program going on the air. An Italian physicist asked questions about the qualifications of such young children as space navigators. Soames listened abstractedly.
"I suppose that's all true but you draw only about six thousand a year for personal expenses a good clerk could get that and you, admittedly the most brilliant physicist of the Earth, are satisfied! I don't feel we're paying you properly!" Arcot's expression became suddenly serious. "You can repay me this time," he said, "for this latest discovery has made a new thing possible.
A psychiatrist should not be the means of associating Jones a very junior physicist with no money and Cochrane and the things Cochrane was prepared to bring about if only this unlikely-looking gadget worked. "Jones," said Cochrane with a little difficulty, "let's follow an ancient tradition. Let Babs christen the enterprise by throwing the switch."
The screen flowed with the black and white patterns of the scrambler. "That's all, Faussel," Brion said. "I want privacy for this talk. What's the commander's name?" "Professor Krafft he's a physicist. They have no military men at all, so they called him in for the construction of the bombs and energy weapons. He's still in charge." Faussel yawned extravagantly as he went out the door.
Lockroy, who expatiated upon the great services rendered by the master of all the sciences known at that epoch, who was in turn physician, physicist, mechanician, and mathematician, and who, in discovering the properties of steam, laid the foundation of modern society, which, so to speak, arose from this incomparable discovery. Speeches were afterward made by Mr.
Tendency to equilibrium of force and to permanency of form then, are the characters of that portion of the universe which does not live the domain of the chemist and physicist. Tendency to disturb existing equilibrium, to take on forms which succeed one another in definite cycles, is the character of the living world.
