Physics (from Greek)‚ i.e. "knowledge‚ science of nature"‚ from φύσις‚ physis‚ i.e. "nature"[1][2][3][4][5]) is a part of natural philosophy and a natural science that involves the study of matter[6] and its motion through space and time‚ along with related concepts such as energy and force.[7] More broadly‚ it is the general analysis of nature‚ conducted in order to understand how the universe behaves.[8][9][10] Physics is the field of science that studies the physical world. From the large (galaxies

that I hurt myself from power lifting at Bally’s Total Fitness‚ which was my local gym‚ listening to the advice that my friends (peers) gave me. I was in high school at that time that I picked up a pastime hobby of power lifting. Power lifting is when an individual tests his strengths by attempting to lift heavy weights with good form. This hobby of power lifting helped me relieve stress and gave me time to hang out with my friends doing something that we

Physics (Thorpe Park Trip) Report: On Monday 8th October our physics class went on a physics trip to Thorpe Park to look at the different ways in which a roller coast works. This report will be looking at the G forces acting on rides‚ the launching systems and breaking systems. The particular rollercoaster which I have picked to look into more detail in is “Stealth” which is located in Thorpe Park. Stealth: Stealth was originally designed by Werner Stengel. Stealth reaches a height of 205 feet

There are many energy sources that can be readily converted into electricity. In Australia‚ most power plants burn a fuel‚ such as coal‚ or use the energy of falling water to generate electricity on a large scale. Electricity is also relatively

SPH4U-B 4 Circular Motion Physics SPH4U-B Lesson 4 Introduction Transportation has undoubtedly advanced. Not only have vehicles changed‚ but the means by which people can get themselves to and from different locations has changed as well. Maps and compasses now take a backseat to the Global Positioning System (GPS). Access to the GPS is now very widespread; 24 satellites above our atmosphere are used to send and receive information in order to accurately determine locations of
