Physics

Study of matter, energy, and their interactions in the universe.

Practical Applications

Understanding the Natural World

Physics in Nature

Physics isn’t just for labs—it's everywhere in nature! From falling apples to rainbows, the laws of physics explain how the universe works.

Natural Phenomena Explained

  • Rainbows: Created when sunlight bends and splits in water droplets.
  • Gravity: Keeps planets in orbit and lets us walk on Earth.
  • Ecosystems: Plants use sunlight (energy) and water (matter) to grow.

Why This Helps

Understanding physics helps us appreciate the beauty of nature and protect our planet.

Examples

  • Birds glide using the physics of air resistance and lift.

  • Lightning is a giant spark caused by electric fields in clouds.
