  2. Branches of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Branches_of_physics

    atmospheric physics is the application of physics to the study of the atmosphere; space physics is the study of plasmas as they occur naturally in the Earth's upper atmosphere (aeronomy) and within the Solar System; biophysics, studying the physical interactions of biological processes; chemical physics, the science of physical relations in ...

  3. Outline of physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_physics

    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 ...

  4. Physics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Physics

    Physics is a branch of fundamental science (also called basic science). Physics is also called "the fundamental science" because all branches of natural science including chemistry, astronomy, geology, and biology are constrained by laws of physics. [58]

  5. Outline of physical science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Outline_of_physical_science

    History of chemical engineering – history of the branch of engineering that deals with physical science (e.g., chemistry and physics), and life sciences (e.g., biology, microbiology and biochemistry) with mathematics and economics, to the process of converting raw materials or chemicals into more useful or valuable forms.

  6. Natural science - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Natural_science

    Natural science can be divided into two main branches: life science and physical science. Life science is alternatively known as biology, and physical science is subdivided into branches: physics, chemistry, earth science, and astronomy. These branches of natural science may be further divided into more specialized branches (also known as fields).

  8. Laws of thermodynamics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Laws_of_thermodynamics

    In addition to their use in thermodynamics, they are important fundamental laws of physics in general and are applicable in other natural sciences. Traditionally, thermodynamics has recognized three fundamental laws, simply named by an ordinal identification, the first law, the second law, and the third law.

  9. Conservation law - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conservation_law

    These quantities are conserved in certain classes of physics processes, but not in all. A local conservation law is usually expressed mathematically as a continuity equation, a partial differential equation which gives a relation between the amount of the quantity and the "transport" of that quantity. It states that the amount of the conserved ...
