It is often said that the world is witnessing now a second industrial revolution, which will transform the society as radically as did the first. List some key contemporary areas of science and technology, which are responsible for this revolution.
Solution:
Following are some contemporary areas of science and technology,
which may be responsible for a second industrial revolution:
1. Developing superconducting materials at room temperature, so that transmission of electrical energy may be made without any loss ofenergy.
2. Advancement in biochemistry, as that new safe drugs in place ofsteroids may be developed.
3. Advancement in biotechnology, so as to develop alternative energyresources.
4. Developing robots, so that the tasks which involve risk to humanlives may be accomplished safely and efficiently.
5. Developing superfast computers, so that data may be transferredfrom one place to the other at a faster rate.
6. Further advancement in information technology.
