Fundamental rules
The principles of physics
How universe acts.
| |
Principles are held
Motion of massive planets
To subatomics.
|
The First Law--Newton
Objects stay at rest or move
No external force!
| |
F = ma
Mass times acceleration
Is equal to force.
|
The Third Law--Newton
Yes, every action has an
Equal / opposite.
| |
Conservation of
Momentum. Of closed system
Constant--no forces.
|
Energy conserved
Not created nor destroyed
One form to other.
| |
Entropy Law Two
Time--disorder increases
In isolation.
|
Natural heat flow
Always flowing high to low
Watch out for the draft!
| |
Relativity
Same--all viewers in motion
Light in vacuum same.
|
The speed of light squared
Times the mass of an object
Is its energy.
| |
Microscopic scales
Pieces--Quantum Mechanics
In multiple states.
|
Fundamental Force
The universe is driven
Four interactions.
| |
Gravity attracts
Any object with a mass
To one another.
|
Guides interactions
Electromagnetism
Between particles.
| |
Strong nuclear force
Holds nuclei of atoms
Remain together.
|
Physics natural
Science. Elucidates rules
Of natural world.
| |
With empirical
And scientific methods
For understanding.
|
Physical science
Studies non-living systems--
Matter / Energy.
| |
Biological
Science. One that studies the
Role living beings.
