What is physics?
"Somewhere, something amazing is waiting to be known" -Carl Sagan-
Physics
It's main focus of study is matter and how it interacts with the space and time. It reaches this purpose by applying important concepts, reasoning logically and developing mathematical models. Briefly, physics studies the behaviour of the cosmos.
Physics is devided in the next subjects
- Classical physics:
- Classical Mechanics: cinematics, Newton's Laws
- Fluid Mechanics
- Cosmology and Astrophysics
- Electromagnetism and Optics
- Thermodynamics
- Chaos Theory
- Relativity:
- Special and General Relativity
- Quantum Physics:
- Quantum Field Theory
- Particle Physics
- Condensed Matter Physics
- Nuclear Physics
Where can we find
physicists?
Physicists work in different areas of society
path of a physicist
Depending on the special focus given to the career, the knowledge can be applied to the following areas:
- Physicists are often hired as programmers as they offer different insights from the computer scientists
- Physics can lead you to a data analyst or scientist path.
- Astrophysicists work in observatories or spacial agencies.
- And of course they can offer thorough knowledge to share by teaching.
- A medical physicist works developing technology used in the health area.
- A quantum phycisist can focus on quantum computers.
- Condensed matter physicists relate to the study of conductors and superconductivity
- Nuclear phycisists develop nuclear energy in government agencies, research institutes or universities
Where can you study physics in Guatemala?
