Basic Physics

[edit]

Physics is the basic of Science and it has a lot of different branches such as electronics, energy, forces and radioactivity.

A example of the reacting force when a water droplet is fell onto a surface.

Mathematics

[edit]

Mathematics is often used to explain the phenomena in Physics. Formulas such as E=mc2 and m=pV are often used in Physics.

Energy

[edit]

Energy in matters is the main focus in Physics. In physics, energy is a property of objects, transferable among them via fundamental interactions, which can be converted in form but not created or destroyed. The joule is the SI unit of energy, based on the amount transferred to an object by the mechanical work of moving it 1 meter against a force of 1 newton.

Inspired by Pythagoras, he founded his Academy in Athens in 387 BC, where he stressed mathematics as a way of understanding more about reality. In particular, he was convinced that geometry was the key to unlocking the secrets of the universe. The sign above the Academy entrance read: 'Let no-one ignorant of geometry enter here.'"

I mean the universe, but we cannot understand it if we do not first learn the language and grasp the symbols in which it is written. This book is written in the mathematical language, and the symbols are triangles, circles and other geometrical figures, without whose help it is humanly impossible to comprehend a single word of it, and without which one wanders in vain through a dark labyrinth." – Galileo (1623), The Assayer, as quoted in Toraldo Di Francia 1976, p. 10 38.Jump up ^ "Applications of Mathematics to the Sciences".
