?Whats physics

Physics is a systematic study of the natural world, a discipline that attempts to quantify reality through a precise application of observation coupled with logic and reason

Physics is the scientific study of matter and energy and how they interact with each other

motion, light, electricity, radiation, gravity matter on scales ranging from sub-atomic particles (i.e. the particles that make up the atom and the particles that make up those particles) to stars and even .entire galaxies

How Physics Works It uses scientific method to formulate & Test hypothesis Hypothesis is based on observation of real world Major goal is to formulate scintific laws using the results These laws are generally in mathematical form to understand different phenomena
