    Physics is the study of the laws of nature revealed through observed events in the natural world. Mathematics provides the language to describe physical laws and relationships. Fundamental units like meters, kilograms, and seconds are used to quantify measurements and derive other units to compare the magnitudes of different physical quantities. Vectors represent quantities that have both magnitude and direction, and follow specific rules for addition, subtraction and angular relationships.

    Introduction to Physics
    What is Physics
    Revealing law of nature from observed events is
    physics
    Chess & Rules metaphor Nature & Law’s of nature
    Identifying both by observed events.
    We only discover the rules that are operating in nature.
    Physics & Mathematics
    Mathematics is the language of physics.
    Idea & Language metaphor Physics & Math's
    UNITS
    A elephant is heavier than goat but how many times.
    Need to standard unit to measure.

    Fundamental & Derived Quantity


    Fundamental: should be independent.
