Contributed by: Burrows
  • 1. Physics is the natural science that deals with the study of matter, energy, space, and time. It seeks to understand how the universe functions from the smallest subatomic particles to the largest galaxies. Physics encompasses various disciplines such as mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, and quantum mechanics. By observing and experimenting with physical phenomena, physicists develop theories and laws to explain the fundamental forces and principles that govern the physical world. The insights gained from the study of physics have led to groundbreaking discoveries and technological advancements that have transformed our understanding of the universe and improved our daily lives.
