Physics Textbook 35.2

Physics is a branch of natural science devoted to the exploration of matter and its movements through space and time, encompassing fundamental concepts like energy and force. At its core, physics delves into understanding the fundamental behaviors of the universe.

Utilizing the scientific method, physics endeavors to unveil the underlying principles that govern the interactions of light and matter while interpreting the consequences of these laws. It operates under the assumption that the universe adheres to specific rules that can be deciphered, to some extent, by humanity. There is a prevailing belief that with complete knowledge of the present status of all light and matter, these laws could accurately predict all facets of the universe's future.

Matter is broadly defined as any entity possessing mass and volume. Classical physics heavily relies on theories and laws that elucidate the nature of matter and its motions. For instance, the law of conservation of mass dictates that mass remains constant and cannot be created or obliterated. Hence, in physics, subsequent experiments and theories integrate this principle when postulating hypotheses to elucidate natural phenomena.
