Classical physics traditionally includes the fields of mechanics, optics, electricity, magnetism, acoustics and thermodynamics.The term Modern physics is normally used for fields which rely heavily on quantum theory, including quantum mechanics, atomic physics, nuclear physics, particle physics and condensed matter physics.
Physics Forums is a question and answer Internet forum that allows users to ask, answer and comment on grade-school through graduate-level science questions. In addition, Physics Forums hosts the Insights Blog which is a collaborative blog sourced from verified experts on the community.
AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism and AP Physics 2 introduce topics from the second course in a standard college-level physics sequence. High school students who have already completed a first course in mechanics, such as AP Physics C: Mechanics or AP Physics 1, often proceed to either AP Physics C: Electricity and Magnetism or AP Physics ...
The Berkeley course was contemporary with The Feynman Lectures on Physics (a college course at a similar mathematical level), and PSSC Physics (a high school introductory course). These physics courses were all developed in the atmosphere of urgency about science education created in the West by Sputnik.
Physics – branch of science that studies matter [9] and its motion through space and time, along with related concepts such as energy and force. [10] Physics is one of the "fundamental sciences" because the other natural sciences (like biology, geology etc.) deal with systems that seem to obey the laws of physics. According to physics, the ...

University Physics, informally known as the Sears & Zemansky, is the name of a two-volume physics textbook written by Hugh Young and Roger Freedman. The first edition of University Physics was published by Mark Zemansky and Francis Sears in 1949. [2] [3] Hugh Young became a coauthor with Sears and Zemansky in 1973.
