Physics

Physics is the branch of science that studies the fundamental principles governing matter, energy, motion, and the interactions between them. It seeks to explain how the natural world works through observation, experimentation, mathematical models, and scientific reasoning. From the movement of planets and the behavior of light to electricity, magnetism, and quantum particles, physics provides the foundation for understanding the universe.Physics is divided into several major branches. Classical mechanics studies motion, forces, gravity, and the behavior of everyday objects using principles developed by Sir Isaac Newton. Thermodynamics examines heat, temperature, and energy transfer. Electro...
