Course summary

A dictionary would say that “Physics is the study of energy and matter and the interaction between the two.” We would say that Physics is everything from the smallest particle created in a particle accelerator right up to the massive objects which make up the whole universe. It contains all of our past, right back to the Big Bang, through to the future and fate of the universe. It allows us to predict what will happen to a spaceship as it orbits a star and also what happens to a single particle of gas. It is also the starting point of many technologies in the world around us – from a musical instrument or an MRI machine to the entire internet. Physics is the most fundamental and also the widest reaching of the sciences, that is why it is such an exciting subject to study.
