The Laws of Motion

Describes how everything with matter moves

Describes the pull of gravity present on earth and in outer space

A mathematical tool that greatly assists in the understanding and pioneering of physics

Describes the physics of light and how it travels through different objects, like lenses. Responsible for the creation of things like microscopes and telescopes (the latter led to the creation of cosmology and astrophysics

Describes how waves travel through disturbances in a medium. Closely related with Optics

James Clerk Maxwell

Electromagnetism

Describes the nature of electric and magnetic fields, and explains all of how electricity works

Classical Mechanics

Describes the properties and motions of solid object

Fluid Mechanics

Describes the physics and flow of gases and liquids, describes the concept of lift, and the concept of aerodynamics. Known to be difficult to handle due to the fickle nature of tiny particles

Chaos Theory

Description of large, difficult systems.

Cosmology

Thermodynamics

Describes how energy passes from one form to another

General Theory of Relativity

Special Theory of Relativity

Predicts that the speed of light is constant for all observers, among other things. Is the origin of the infamous “e=mc^2” formula.

Theorizes the existence of ‘spacetime’

Particle Physics

It describes the nature of atoms such as the electron orbits, energy levels, electrons etc.

It is quantum physics and special theory of relativity combined.

Condensed Matter Physics

It is the quantum physics of grouped atoms of solids and liquids.

Nuclear Physics

It describes how the nucleus of atoms behave. Radiation, Nuclear fusion and fission are mentioned.

It is the fundamental subatomic particles. It uses the standard model of particle physics.
