Study Notes
Physics
- Physics is the fundamental science studying matter, energy, motion, and forces.
- Key areas include mechanics (motion and forces), thermodynamics (heat and temperature), electromagnetism (electric and magnetic fields), optics (light), and modern physics (relativity and quantum mechanics).
- Classical mechanics describes object motion under forces, using velocity, acceleration, momentum, and energy.
- Thermodynamics relates heat, work, and energy.
- Electromagnetism explores interactions between electric and magnetic fields, with tech applications.
- Optics studies light's propagation and behavior.
- Modern physics includes relativity (high speeds, strong gravity) and quantum mechanics (atomic/subatomic behavior).
- Fundamental principles include Newton's laws of motion, conservation of energy, and thermodynamics laws.
Chemistry
- Chemistry studies matter's composition, properties, structure, and reactions.
- It focuses on atom and molecule structure and behavior.
- Key concepts include atomic structure, bonding, chemical reactions, stoichiometry, and thermodynamics.
- Atoms are basic matter units with nuclei (protons/neutrons) and orbiting electrons.
- Chemical bonding attracts atoms, forming molecules/compounds.
- Chemical reactions rearrange atoms, making new substances.
- Stoichiometry quantifies reactants/products in reactions.
- Thermodynamics examines energy changes in reactions.
- Branches: organic (carbon-based), inorganic (non-carbon-based), physical (thermodynamics/kinetics), and analytical (substance identification/quantification).
Biology
- Biology studies living organisms and their interactions with each other and the environment.
- Key areas include cell biology, genetics, evolution, ecology, and physiology.
- Cell biology examines cell structure and function.
- Genetics studies trait inheritance via genes and molecular mechanisms.
- Evolution explores life's diversity development.
- Ecology examines organism-environment interactions.
- Physiology studies living organism function.
- Key concepts include DNA, RNA, proteins, cellular respiration, photosynthesis, and the scientific method.
- Biological organization levels: atoms, molecules, cells, tissues, organs, organ systems, organisms, populations, communities, ecosystems.
- Biological fields: microbiology (microorganisms), botany (plants), zoology (animals), and human biology (human structure/function).
