Introduction to Physics Concept of Physics
Physics is the study of the relationship between
matter and energy. The people who study
physics is called physicists
Science
Science is the scientific study of nature.
For Example, how cooling effect occurs
Matter
Matter is anything that has mass and occupies
space.
For Example, Solid (chalk), liquid (water) and gas
(Oxygen)
Energy
Energy is ability to do work. Energy can be in different
forms
For Example, light energy, sound energy, electrical energy,
etc.
Relationship between Physics and Other Subject
Physics is the fundamental subject which other subject
uses application of physics;
The following is the relation with other subjects
Chemistry
Composition and decomposing of matter involves energy.
For Example,
i) Cooking stoves, fuel burn
to leased heat energy
ii) Insect killers and Perfumes
packed in container by compressed which comes out with high pressure
iii) Fertilizer when they
syntheses the heat energy should involved
iv) When tea and other food cooked
the heat energy should involved
Biology
Since biology is the scientific subject, which involves
living and non-living things, which may be micro and macro organism, it uses
application of physics. For Example,
i) Microscope which made by physicist
is used to observe micro organism
ii) Syringe is based on
pressure
Mathematics
Physicist should master mathematics because physics problems
may involve calculation
Astronomy
Astronomy is the scientific study of universe.
Universe composed by moon, sun, stars, comets, planets etc. it uses different
instruments to study the universe which are made by physicists.
For Example,
i) Periscope and telescope are
used to observe distant objects like stars etc.
ii) Material used to build the
space like satellite are determined by physicists
Geography
Geography is the study of man and his environment.
It includes soil rainfall, mountains etc. it uses application of physics, for
Example,
i) Many instruments like rain
gauge, wind vane developed by physicist
ii) Barometer which used to
measure the atmospheric pressure made by physicist
iii) Formation of soil and rocks
are explained by physics
