Why do we study Physics?


"Physics is crucial to understanding the world around us, the world inside us, and the world beyond us. It is the most basic and fundamental science.

Physics challenges our imaginations with concepts like relativity and string theory, and it leads to great discoveries, like computers and lasers, that lead to technologies which change our lives—from healing joints, to curing cancer, to developing sustainable energy solutions."

But also: Personal Skills, Science, Jobs, Money, and much more.

    I would say that studying physics is very important since physicists look beyond the boundaries of our imagination leading us to be more creative people. This would mean that even if we are facing a problem related to any other science and even in daily life, the abilities obtained by studying physics, like analytical reasoning, will help us find a solution. In my personal opinion physics leads, not only lead to innovation and technology, but also to a certain mentality to overcome whatever society has told us that is not possible.

    I would say we study physics, because it a science that has helped human beings in many different ways. Physics gave us answers, but also led us to new questions. Now we know what, why or how. We understand our world so much more, and I think this science encourage us to keep asking, keep looking and keep learning, basically keep progressing. This science is all around us, so studying it is important. There will always be a new question, and I hope there will always be an answer.

    Overall, physics is related to almost every human knowledge variant such as sciences but also with subjects such as philosophy and art, being physics the practical interpretation of mathematics. Studying physics not only implies understanding our world but the universe and therefore, advancements on almost every subject can be done beginning from applying physics.

  21. We study physics to be able to answer every question that comes to our mind, even those ones that human has been asked for millions of years and still don’t have an answer; to understand the world in which we live and everything that surround us; to discover things about the past, what is happening in the present and what will come in the future, finally to improve our quality of life and have a better world.

    I believe that what the article says about Physics being a fundamental science is true.
    It's something that surrounds us, and that is present in many different aspects of our lives. I think that Physics is a science that has had a huge influence on the changes that have occurred in the lifestyle of the Western civilization throughout the past few decades, and I believe that we can trust physicists to solve many of our problems in the future, and change our world through innovation and discoveries. I like to think that it has no boundaries, because what was thought to be impossible only a few years ago is now a reality, and so we can't be sure what physicists will come up with in a few years. Perhaps things like curing cancer or time traveling are not as distant as they might seem.
    However, I'm not really interested in pursuing any of the careers mentioned in the article. While I may find Physics to be very interesting, I do not wish to make a living out of it.

    Studying physics nowadays represents a key to open doors in the actual world's work market because it has lots of applications; like he text says a physicist can work in any type of enterprise and actually the great companies are interested in having a phycisist in theier working team because this professionals not only know how to work out the issues related to its carriers but also, as the text mentions, they have a crital an deep analysis of any kind of sitations and know how to solve any type of problems in the daily basis.Physics have resulted to be the essential science to understand and to deal with the other sciences, this means that if you study physics, the other science subjects might be easier.

    I think physics is important because thanks to this science we have nowadays such advanced technologies that surprise us every day. The interesting thing about this science is that despite some believes that say that is a career way to centered in one field or that has nothing to do with other sciences, or even where there are few job offers; well it’s actually the other way around, because by studying physics you can find maybe a cure to a disease, another type of energy and so many other discoveries. Actually a physicist may work in plenty fields such as law, biology, finances, medicine and many others.

  30. Why do we study physics

    I think that physics is one of the most important science in the world, with this science we can create a new future with new technologies. Also this science is the base of the world, this subject explain you the origins of everything, the possible and the impossible.
    Physics can helps you to understand how a lot of things work, with a logical explanation and solving all our doubts. In conclusion we study physics because with this science we can understand perfectly our world.

    I think its important to study physics because without them, we couldn´t understand anything at all. I believe that every aspect in science is related to physics, because they help us to figure out what happens in our daily lives. From the smallest to the biggest phenomena... I also think that its quite important to know and to study physics because we should learn and understand how energy is developed in everything we do. Doesn't matter if we are trying to understand something about sports, about our universe or even about us as persons; Physics are very important because i think they are related with almost everything our senses can perceive.

    In my opinion, Physics is not only a subject, it is a way to solve daily problems and find the solution for them by analyzing the best way possible. It is the base for much of the sciences even tough they appear really far away form the topic, such as medicine. In medicine Physics is really important because of all the studies of machinery and technology used in order to have better results in the health of the patients. Also it is important that the people that have a career or degree in Physics also have a great variety of working areas and demand because of their higher standard level of learning, such as working in team, programming, computer systems, and analysis. I also think that this subject may help us to continue moving into the future and creating new stuff such the one we watch in the movies, but still we consider them as impossible. I believe Physics was, is, and will be always the next step in the development of human.

    According to the text physics are studied for many reasons, it is very useful in a lot of areas of knowledge and it is the basis of most sciences.
    One of the most important things to study it is to develope technology that helps the human kind move on the future like the ones mentioned in the text (curing diseases, developing energy solutions, etc.)
    It also studies the whole universe and tries to explain since the Big Bang theory until how do the smallest particles (even quarks) work.
    In another point of view studying physics professionally it's an excellent idea because you are able to work in almost all of the areas of knowledge and get well-payed jobs.

    I totally agree with the article. Physics is really important because with it we can figure out a lot of things and answer a lot of questions. It help us to understand all our sorroundings. This subject can be related to anything in life and it is applied to many other subjects, specially sciences.
    Physyics has become a crucial part for the technology advances, because with it,maybe, in the future (as the article said) there will exist a cure for cancer and things we believed impossible will become a reality.

    I found this post very interesting because while I was reading it I realized that Physics is much more than a school subject. I agree completely with the part that even though I do not wish to study Physics as a career it will help me develope other skills that will be useful not only in my field but also in life.
    I hadn´t analyzed the fact that all sciences are related to it, I just had the idea that math was the only one, I think now that it is also very useful even if I don´t develope the solutions, for human kind, because it helps solve many of our problems and I also found very interesting the fact that Physics has always a job offer and that you can perform many other professions with it.

    in my personal opinion the study of physics has a lot of purposes and we should study it not only because it is interesting, but also because with physiscs we can explain a lot of things in life, we can have access to new technological advances that improve our quality of life and we can find a way of making possible things that were considered absolutely impossible. physiscs is useful because it is so much more than just vectors, speed, formulas, etc. It is a tool to discover a world we didn't think existed, is a way to move forward in the technology, the human development and the undestanding of our universe.
