Physics is the study of motion, energy and matter. Based on experimental evidence, physics encompasses the stud of Newtonian mechanics, relativity, electricity and magnetism, thermodynamics, quantum mechanics and much more. It is responsible for technological breakthroughs such as electric power, radio, transistors, solar cells, MRI scanners, nuclear energy, microwave ovens, sonar, and space telescopes. The approach to physics is to understand the most basic principles governing a system. Through experiments, field work, theory, and computer simulations, physicists at Memorial University study a wide range of topics. This includes how proteins shape cell membranes, black holes, fibre-optic devices, glaciation, superconductivity, and physical oceanography. |
