The correct Answer is:
To address the question regarding the sudden chest pain on the left side that worsens during walking and does not respond to simple analgesics, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Identify the Symptoms**: The patient is experiencing sudden chest pain on the left side, which intensifies with physical activity (walking) and does not improve with analgesics. These symptoms are indicative of a potential heart-related issue, possibly angina pectoris. 2. **Understand Angina Pectoris**: Angina pectoris occurs when the heart muscle does not receive enough oxygen, often due to narrowed coronary arteries. The pain can be triggered by physical exertion, emotional stress, or heavy meals. 3. **Determine the First Biomedical Technique**: Given the symptoms and the need to assess the heart's condition, the first step in diagnosis should be to evaluate the heart's electrical activity. The most appropriate and immediate test for this is an Electrocardiogram (ECG). 4. **Explain the ECG**: An ECG records the electrical signals of the heart and can help identify issues such as arrhythmias, ischemia, or previous heart attacks. It provides crucial information about the heart's health and is a non-invasive, quick test. 5. **Eliminate Other Options**: While MRI and CT scans are useful for visualizing internal structures, they are not the first-line tests for assessing acute chest pain related to heart issues. Similarly, troponin tests are used to detect heart muscle damage but are typically conducted after an ECG. 6. **Conclusion**: Based on the symptoms and the need for immediate assessment of the heart, the first biomedical technique to be used in this scenario is an Electrocardiogram (ECG). ### Final Answer: The first biomedical technique to be used is an Electrocardiogram (ECG). ---

Internal micrometer is a measuring intrument used to measure internal diameter (ID) of a large cylinder bore with high accuracy. Construction is shown in figure. There is one fixed rod B (to the right in figure) and one moved rod A (to the left in figure). It is based on the particle of advancement of a screw when it is rotated in a nut with internal threads. Main scale reading can be directly seen on the hub which is fixed with respect to rod B. When the cap is rotated rod A moves in or cut depending on direction of rotation. The circular scale reading is seen by checking which division of circular scale coincide with the references line This is to be multiplied by LC to get circular scale reading. Least count = value of 1 circular scale division = ("pitch")/("number of division on circular scale") Length of rod A is chosen to match the ID(PQ) to be measured. Zero error is checked by taking reading between standard blocks fixed at normal value of ID to be measured. Zero error is positive if cap end is one the right of the main scale and negative it is on the left side. During zero setting of the above instrument, the end of the cap is on left side of the zero of main scale (i.e. zero of main scale is not visible) and 41^(th) division of circular scale coincides with the reference line, the zero error is -

It is very commonly thought that the sciences and humanities are producing two cultures which are opposed to each other. Science is even accused of not being sympathetic to the well-being of society. All this is due to the debatable use made by some scientists of their discoveries. However, science has now become increasingly aware of its responsibility towards society. Consequently, many scientists are of the opinion that science should be defined in humanistic terms. According, I.I. Rabi defines science as follows : "Science is an adventure of the whole human race to learn to live in and perhaps to love the universe in which they are. To be a part of it is to understand it, to understand oneself, to begin to feel that there is a capacity within man far beyond that he felt he had, of an infinite extension of human possibilities - not just on the material side..." Rabi proposes that science be taught “with a certain historical understanding, with a certain philosophical understanding, with a social understanding and a human understanding". At the moment, we are dealing with physics and one might well ask if we can define physics also in humanistic terms. Gerald Halton provides us with a relevant definition of physics. According to him : "Physics is a sequence of related ideas whose pursuit provides one with the cumulative effect of an even higher vantage point and a more encompassing view of the working of nature. Physics is neither an isolated bloodless body of facts and theories with mere vocational usefulness, nor a glorious entertainment restricted to an elite of specalists. Rather students of physics may leave them unprepared for their own time. They can be neither participants nor even intelligent spectators in one of the great adventures”. It will be no exaggeration if we say that the fate of society is linked to physics as whatever is thought or discovered in physics immediately affects the society. Our intellegence lies in applying physics to solve the pressing problems that the society faces and not to annihilate it. According to I.I Rabi
