Study Notes
Physics
- Physics studies matter, motion, behaviour through space and time, and concepts like energy and force.
- Branches include classical mechanics, thermodynamics, electromagnetism, optics, and modern physics (relativity, quantum mechanics).
- Classical mechanics uses Newton's laws and energy conservation for macroscopic objects.
- Thermodynamics relates heat, work, and other energy forms.
- Electromagnetism describes electric and magnetic interactions.
- Optics studies light behaviour (reflection, refraction, diffraction).
- Modern physics explores atomic and subatomic phenomena (quantum mechanics, relativity).
- Fundamental forces are gravity, electromagnetism, strong nuclear, and weak nuclear forces.
- Key concepts include motion, force, energy, momentum, and angular momentum.
- Mathematics is crucial for describing and analyzing physical phenomena.
Chemistry
- Chemistry investigates matter's composition, properties, and reactions.
- It examines atoms, molecules, and their interactions.
- Key branches are organic (carbon compounds), inorganic (non-carbon), physical (chemical processes), analytical (identifying matter), and biochemistry (biological processes).
- Atoms, molecules, ions and their properties are vital.
- Chemical bonding (ionic, covalent, metallic) explains how atoms link.
- Chemical reactions involve changes in substance composition through bond breaking/forming.
- Stoichiometry measures reactants and products in reactions.
- Acids, bases, and salts affect reactions and pH.
- Solutions (homogenous mixtures) are important.
- Chemical kinetics studies reaction rates, and equilibrium describes final states.
Biology
- Biology studies life and living organisms.
- Topics include cell structure/function, genetics, evolution, ecology, and life diversity.
- Cell biology analyses the fundamentals of the cell.
- Molecular biology studies biological molecules.
- Genetics investigates heredity and variation.
- Evolutionary biology explores life's development and diversity.
- Ecology studies organism-environment interactions.
- Physiology examines physical/chemical processes within organisms.
- Organismal biology examines individual organism structure/function.
- Life diversity encompasses prokaryotes, eukaryotes, and many species.
- Key biological processes involve metabolism, reproduction, development, and adaptation.
- The scientific method is used in biological research.
