Choose two examples of a fundamental concept from the history of ancient natural philosophy that are still relevant to [1] relativity theory & [2] quantum mechanics, and discuss this relevance. (In other words, relate one example to relativity theory, and the other to quantum mechanics.)

Choose two examples of a fundamental concept from the history of ancient natural philosophy that are still relevant to [1] relativity theory & [2] quantum mechanics, and discuss this relevance. (In other words, relate one example to relativity theory, and the other to quantum mechanics.)

Additional instructions:

In this course, we have explored many historical examples from which to choose. Some of these are: atomism; rationalism (i.e., for Plato and the Pythagoreans, the belief in the physical reality of mathematical and geometrical objects); the idea of universal laws; the dualism of particles and forces; the dualism of permanence (e.g., matter) and change (e.g., waves). There are many other examples.

Your discussion should include both how your chosen concepts remain relevant to quantum mechanics and relativity theory and how they differ from their original form in ancient natural philosophy.
