Physics holds the world
Physics is a science that describes the world and how matter interacts in it.
It is knowledge of nature'
Yeah, and it's also one of the oldest scientific pursuits. People have always wanted to know how the world works.
Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines
Over the last two millennia, physics was a part of natural philosophy along with chemistry, biology, etc... and it especially took of after the enlightment.
Really?
, and certain branches of mathematics, were a part of natural philosophy, but during the Scientific Revolution in the 17th century these natural sciences emerged as unique research endeavors in their own right. Physics intersects with many interdisciplinary areas of research, such as biophysics and quantum chemistry, and the boundaries of physics are not rigidly defined. New ideas in physics often explain the fundamental mechanisms studied by other sciences and suggest new avenues of research in academic disciplines such as mathematics and philosophy.
Advances in physics often enable advances in new technologies
Physics
Physics (from , from "phýsis" 'nature') is the natural science that studies matter, its motion and behavior through space and time, and that studies the related entities of energy and force. Physics is one of the most fundamental scientific disciplines, and its main goal is to understand how the universe behaves.
Physics is one of the oldest academic disciplines and, through its inclusion of astronomy, perhaps "the" oldest. Over much of the past two millennia, physics, chemistry, biology
