The Science of PhysicsSection 1 SCIENCE—what did you discover? Purpose of science: to know and explain the natural universe Science starts with a question. Science assumes that the universe is orderly and can be explained. Science is unbiased (objective, not subjective).

The Science of PhysicsSection 1 BRANCHES OF SCIENCE

The Science of PhysicsSection 1 Science The pursuit of knowledge about the natural world. The study and investigation of nature’s rules. Example A physicist tries to understand how the Sun gives us light.

The Science of PhysicsSection 1 Significance of Science The search for knowledge adds to our understanding of the physical world. Scientists want to know! Science affects society by –stimulating thought –satisfying curiosity –influencing views of the world –providing knowledge necessary for new technological advances

The Science of PhysicsSection 1 The Branches and Disciplines of Science Natural Science Physical Science Life Science Earth Science 1. Physics 2. Chemistry 1. Biology 2. Zoology 3. Botany 1. Geology 2. Meteorology

The Science of PhysicsSection 1 The branches of science are separate, yet integrated. Life Science Physical Science Earth Science

The Science of PhysicsSection 1 Significance of Branches of Science Separate, but integrated Example: the study of fossils requires an understanding of geology and biology! Branches of Natural Science –Earth Science –Life Science –Physical science: Chemistry and Physics.
