Physical World Scope and Excitement of Physics Scope and Excitement of Physics

There are two domains of interest : macroscopic and microscopic. The macroscopic domain includes phenomena at the laboratory, terrestrial and astronomical scales, whereas microscopic domain includes atomic, molecular and nuclear phenomena. Classical Physics deals mainly with macroscopic phenomena and includes subjects like Mechanics, Electrodynamics, Optics and Thermodynamics. Physical World Scope and Excitement of Physics

Mechanics founded on Newton’ laws of motion and the law of gravitation is concerned with the motion of particles rigid and deformable bodies, and general systems of particles. Electrodynamics deals with electric and magnetic phenomena associated with charged and magnetic bodies. Physical World Scope and Excitement of Physics

Optics deals with the phenomena involving light. The working of telescopes and microscopes, colours exhibited by thin films, etc., are covered in optics. Physical World Thermodynamics deals with systems in macroscopic equilibrium and is concerned with changes in internal energy, temperature, entropy, etc., of the system through external work and transfer of heat. The efficiency of heat engines and refrigerators, the direction of a physical or chemical process, etc., are problems of interest in thermodynamics. Scope and Excitement of Physics

The microscopic domain of physics deals with the constitution and structure of matter at the minute scales of atoms and nuclei and their interaction with different probes such as electrons, photons and other elementary particles. Physical World Scope and Excitement of Physics

The scope of physics is truly vast. It covers a tremendous range of magnitude of physical quantities like length, mass, time, energy, etc. Physical World Scope and Excitement of Physics At one end, it studies phenomena at the very small scale of length ( m or even less) involving electrons, protons, etc.; at the other end, it deals with astronomical phenomena at the scale of galaxies or even the entire universe whose extent is of the order of m.

The range of time scales can be obtained by dividing the length scales by the speed of light : s to s. Physical World Scope and Excitement of Physics The range of masses goes from, kg (mass of an electron) to kg (mass of known observable universe). Terrestrial phenomena lie somewhere in the middle of this range.
