SYNOPSIS PHYSICS  Physics deals with the study of the basic laws of nature and their manifestation in different phenomena. The basic laws of physics are universal and are applied in widely different contexts and conditions. Physics, Technology and Society  Science,Technology and Society have strong relationships among one on other. Science is the mother of technology and both of them are the reasons for the creation and development of the society.  Science and technology issues are actually discussed worldwide today. Progress in this has led to produce the ability to integrate different types of physical products.  Physics is a basic discipline in the category of natural sciences which also includes other disciplines like Chemistry and Biology. The word physics comes from a Greek word meaning nature.
