Subtopics

• Biomechanics [r]: The study of the mechanics of biological systems ^[e]
• Classical mechanics [r]: The science of mechanics, which is concerned with the set of physical laws governing and mathematically describing the motions of bodies and aggregates of bodies geometrically distributed within a certain boundary under the action of a system of forces. ^[e]
• Electromagnetism [r]: Phenomena and theories regarding electricity and magnetism. ^[e]
• Gravitation [r]: The tendency of objects with mass to accelerate toward each other. ^[e]
• Quantum mechanics [r]: An important branch of physics dealing with the behavior of matter and energy at very small scales. ^[e]
• Special relativity [r]: Theory of the effects of motion on observations of things such as length, time, mass and energy. The theory is based on the postulates that all laws of physics are the same in all inertial reference systems, and that the vacuum speed of light is a universal constant, independent of the speed of the source. ^[e]
• Statistical mechanics [r]: A theoretical model by which one can derive the laws of thermodynamics via statistical analysis of the dynamics of a large number of atoms and molecules ^[e]
