Physics

Physics is the study of the fundamental processes of nature. It explores the properties and structure of matter, the interactions between its fundamental building blocks, and seeks to explain all natural phenomena and observations from this basis. Natural processes are recorded in experiments through quantitative measurements and represented mathematically in the form of general laws. Physics is therefore an exact natural science with strong links to other natural sciences, engineering sciences, and mathematics.
