Physics Overview: Matter and Motion

Anything that has mass and takes up space, made of atoms.

A physics theory that applies to everyday objects, not to very small/large ones.

A branch of physics that explains very small or very big things, involving quantum mechanics and the photoelectric effect.

To find simple equations that explain the universe.

Examining the relationships between moving objects, leading to better understanding time and space.

The International System of Units (SI) is a standard system of measurement used worldwide. It's based on seven fundamental base units, each representing a specific physical quantity.

The seven fundamental units in the SI system are: meter (m) for length, kilogram (kg) for mass, second (s) for time, ampere (A) for electric current, kelvin (K) for temperature, mole (mol) for amount of substance, and candela (cd) for luminous intensity.

The kilogram is the base unit of mass in the SI system. It represents the standard mass used for comparison.

The meter is the base unit of length in the SI system. It represents the standard distance used for comparison.

The second is the base unit of time in the SI system. It represents the standard duration used for comparison.
