How does neo-determinism try to achieve balance between two concepts of man–environment relationship? Analyse.
Show Hint
Solution and Explanation
Neo-determinism, or stop-and-go determinism, balances environmental determinism and possibilism by:
1. Guided Development: Encourages development within ecological limits.
2. Human Innovation: Supports human creativity to adapt responsibly to environmental constraints.
3. Sustainable Practices: Emphasizes coexistence and sustainable resource use.

- Consider a cylindrical conductor of length \( l \) and area of cross-section \( A \). Current \( I \) is maintained in the conductor and electrons drift with velocity \( \vec{v}_d \, (|\vec{v}_d| = \frac{eE}{m} \tau) \), where symbols have their usual meanings. Show that the conductivity of the material of the conductor is given by \[ \sigma = \frac{n e^2 \tau}{m}. \]
