Study Notes

Physics

Physics is a natural science studying matter, motion, and related concepts like energy and force.

Matter

Matter has mass and volume.
Composed of small particles (atoms).
Exists in various states with unique characteristics.

Classical Physics

Newtonian mechanics applies to a specific range of sizes.
Not applicable to extremely small or large scales.

Modern Physics

Includes concepts like the photoelectric effect and quantum physics.
Einstein's theories are part of modern physics.

Study of Motion

Goal of physics is to create a simple equation describing the universe (like a t-shirt).

Motion (Moving Around)

GC: Understanding orientation in space and time
KC: Identifying relationships between factors.
RE: Using models to explain relationships,
ATL: Collaborating to examine relationships.
SOI: Developing models explaining motion, variability and scale, which allows for better understanding of space and time.
