Physics Concept

A Physics Concept is a concept that is core to the Physics subject area.

• Context:
  • It can (typically) be about ...
  • It can (typically) be referenceable by a Physics Term.
  • It can be a member of Category:Concept, Physics.
• Example(s):
  • a Physical Object Measure (e.g. acceleration), ...
  • Electricity (electric field), ...
  • …
• Counter-Example(s):
  • a Math Concept, such as an infinite set.
  • a Computer Science Concept, such as space complexity and Quicksort algorithm.
• See: Theoretical Physics, Applied Physics, Physics Textbook.
