Description

Physics C High School Laboratory Guide

Physics is the science that man shaped and continues to shape in his attempt to understand and interpret natural phenomena, i.e. the changes in the natural world that surrounds him. In order to succeed in this endeavour, he invents and uses appropriate physical concepts and physical quantities, such as material body, gravity, electric field, or even length, speed, energy, temperature, load, etc. Then, based on his experience, he attempts to find and formulate relationships between physical quantities, which are known as physical laws. Finally, it integrates natural laws into broader logical constructions, natural theories.
Examples of physical laws:

a. "If you increase the temperature of a metal rod, its length increases"
b. "If you apply heat to water and its temperature reaches 100°C, at an atmospheric pressure of 1 atm, then it changes from a liquid to a gas"
c. "The distance traveled by a body, when moving at a constant speed, is proportional to the time of its motion."

The laws and theories formulated in the context of Physics are not arbitrary. They must agree with "reality". To check if this really happens, you have to resort to the experiment.

An experiment is a well-designed question that man asks of nature, with the goal of verifying or disproving a law or conjecture, or to discover a new one.

Experiment plays a dominant role in Physics. This is what confirms or disproves the laws and theories that man formulates in his attempt to understand the phenomena that occur around him. For this reason, Physics is characterized as an experimental science.
