Summary: "Physics is the most basic of the sciences. It deals with the behavior and structure of matter. The field of physics is usually divided into classical physics which includes motion, fluid, heat, sound, lights, electricity, and magnetism; and modern physics which includes the topics of relativity, atomic structure, condensed matter, nuclear physics, elementary particles, and cosmology and astrophysics."
