Optics

All incidents related to light and its production, transmission and detection are studied.

Mechanics Optics Acoustics Thermodynamics

CLASSICAL PHYSICS

ASTRONOMY

In this branch the study of the origin, structure and the movement of various celestial bodies of the world is studied. In the space exploration, the launch and the study of man-made or artificial satellites and the information received from them is also analyzed and studied.

Atomic Physics

In this, the interaction of atom and its radiations are studied.

Modern Physics

Is the 20th century physics.

Physics

Is the study of nature, the understanding of its phenomena and how it behaves. It deals with the structure of matter, motion and energy.

Mechanics

It is that branch of physics that deals with the study of motion. No doubt motion is the fundamental idea in all of science. It is also related to the properties of matter and light.

MODERN PHYSICS

Classical Physics

Physics up to 1900 AD

Thermodynamics

This branch deals with the process of heat, its transmission and changes in its function.

Quantum Physics

This is a special type of mechanism in which the behaviour of molecules, atoms, and nuclear particles is described.

Acoustics

Under it the wave speed and sound production and transmission are studied.

Systematic Error

are defined as reproducible inaccurate data that are constantly in the same direction

Random Error

are defined as variations in the measured data brought by the limitations of the measuring device

Mesoscopic physics

deals with materials of an intermediate length in a sub discipline condensed matter. The scale of these materials can be described as being between the nano scale size of a quantity of atoms (such as a molecule) and of materials measuring micrometres.

Paul Hewitt

described science as the "body of knowledge about nature that represents the collective efforts, findings, insights, and wisdom of the human race."

Theory of Relativity

n 1905, Einstein propounded a specific principle of relativity, in which the interaction very high speed particles are explained. Later, in 1915, Einstein presented a general theory of relativity in which the definition of gravitation was also explained.

SCIENCE

systematic knowledge of physical/material world-gained through observation systematically organized body of knowledge on a particular subject. study dealing within a body of facts/truths systematically arranged & showing the operation of "general law"

Nuclear Physics

Deals with the structure of the nucleus and the interactions of the nuclear particles.

Phusika

Derived from the Greek word *blank*, which means natural thing or nature. In this several process and views of nature are studied. But as per the definition of modern physics, the relationship between energy and matter is studied. Various branches of physics help us to understand natural processes in details with proper analysis.
