In Thomas Pynchon's Gravity's Rainbow, the Infant Tyrone's penile erections are conditioned in a manner modeled on Watson and Rayner's conditioning of Little Albert, to both satirize behaviorism and wind the book's plot around Pynchon's themes of control and the institutional corruption of innocence.
When constructing his general theory of relativity, Einstein made the following observation: a freely falling object in a gravitational field will not be able to detect the existence of the field by making local measurements ("a falling man feels no gravity").
In addition to hydrodynamical forces such as pressure and gravity, an element of magnetized fluid also feels the Lorentz force where is the current density and is the magnetic field vector.

Journal of Integrative Neuroscience 4 (2005) 505-21).
