The Science of Matter, Energy, and Their Interactions
“Physics is the most fundamental of the sciences — it explains how everything
Richard Feynman
, Why Study Physics?
Explains natural phenomena
Basis for technology and medicine
Develops problem-solving and analytical skills
Connects all scientific disciplines
, Definition of Physics
Physics:
The study of matter, energy, and their interactions.
1. Matter → anything that has mass and occupies space
2. Energy → ability to do work or cause change
3. Interaction → forces and motion that connect matter and energy
Physics is the study of matter, energy, and the interactions between t
seeks to understand how the universe behaves from the smallest
particles to the largest galaxies.
