What is Physics?




What is Physics?

Physics is the scientific study of matter and energy how they interact with each other. This energy can take the form of motion, light, electricity, radiation and gravity. Physics deals with matter on scales ranging from sub-atomic particles to stars and even entire galaxies. That is: the particles that make up the atom and the particles that make up those particles.  

How Physics Works?  

As an experimental science, physics utilizes the scientific method to formulate and test hypotheses that are based on observation of the natural world. The goal of physics is to use the results of these experiments to formulate scientific laws, usually expressed in the language of mathematics, which can then be used to predict other phenomena. 

The Role of Physics in Science 

In a broader sense, physics can be seen as the most fundamental of the natural sciences. Chemistry for example, can be viewed as a complex application of physics, as it focuses on the interaction of energy and matter in chemical systems. We also know that biology is, at its heart, an application of chemical properties in living things, which means that it is also, ultimately, ruled by the physical laws.
