  1. Philosophy Untouched by Science? Zeno’s Runner, Sextus’ Epochē, and More.Josef Mattes - 2024 - Philosophies 9 (4):115.
    The relationship between science and philosophy is contentious. Quine saw philosophy as continuous with science (broadly understood), but many philosophers see a dichotomy between them. The present paper discusses cases where the relevance of certain scientific findings has been denied (related to Zeno’s Dichotomy paradox and to the appeal of skeptical arguments) or overlooked (one argument related to the frame problem of artificial intelligence and Nagel’s “bat” argument). The results caution against overly quick dismissal of the import of science on (...)

  • Zeno’s Paradoxes and the Viscous Friction Force.Leonardo Sioufi Fagundes dos Santos - 2022 - Foundations of Physics 52 (3):1-9.
    In this paper, we connected Zeno’s paradoxes and motions with the viscous friction force \. For the progressive version of the dichotomy paradox, if the body speed is constant, the sequences of positions and instants are infinite, but the series of distances and time variations converge to finite values. However, when the body moves with force \, the series of time variations becomes infinite. In this case, the body crosses infinite points, approximating to a final position forever, as the progressive (...)
