A Physical Situation Which Physics Rules Collapse

In summary, the circumstances which physics rules collapse and don't work are situations where certain laws of physics are incomplete or do not apply. There is no one explanation for this, but it is a common occurrence in physics.

Whats the circumtances which physics rules collapse and don't work.Theres any explanation it to use mathematics. Here I don't mean singularity things.I know in singularity physics rules collapse I want to talk more generally.

Do you mean a situation where the laws of physics are incomplete [i.e. we don't know the correct laws]?
Or do you mean a situation where the laws of physics do not apply [because no such laws exist for it]?

This one . A situtation which we can't get energy conservation or these kind of things which we can say hundered per cent physics laws cannot work in that situation.Is there any way to desribe it mathematicly.

I'm just looking for more clarity in what you are asking.

Consider the Law of Conservation of [total] Energy...
[for the sake of argument, let's say...] it holds in a certain situation...
but because some part of the system is inaccessible to us, we can't verify it or make [easy] use of it.
It's true but not helpful in solving a problem.
Is that what you mean?

we couldn't find energy conservation in a situation.Its a very important law in physics or , we found a situation which charges don't conserve.These laws are fundamental but they broken just know.Then Can we say "in this situation physics laws are broken" or don't work.

It has certainly been the case that some so-called "law" that we had accepted had been violated and thus had to dropped [or had its range of validity restricted] in favor of a better explanation of what was going on. Such turning points often point to new physics.

Here is a famous story... the history of the neutrino.
http://hyperphysics.phy-astr.gsu.edu/hbase/particles/neutrino.html
Apparent violations of conservation laws were resolved by postulating a new particle, which was subsequently detected.

This may be enlightening...

1. What is a physical situation in which physics rules collapse?

A physical situation in which physics rules collapse is an event or phenomenon that occurs where the known laws and principles of physics are unable to accurately explain or predict the behavior or outcome. This can happen in extreme conditions, such as in black holes or during the early stages of the universe, where the effects of gravity and quantum mechanics cannot be reconciled.

2. How do physics rules collapse in these situations?

In these situations, the extreme conditions cause a breakdown in the mathematical equations and models that are used to describe the behavior of matter and energy. This can lead to paradoxes, inconsistencies, and a lack of predictive power in understanding the physical laws at play.

3. Can physics rules collapse be observed or tested?

Currently, we do not have the technology or capability to directly observe or test the collapse of physics rules in these extreme situations. However, theoretical physicists use mathematical models and simulations to try and understand and predict what may happen in these scenarios.

4. How does the collapse of physics rules impact our understanding of the universe?

The collapse of physics rules challenges our current understanding of the universe and forces us to question the limitations of our knowledge and theories. It also highlights the need for further research and advancements in physics to better explain and understand these extreme situations.

5. Is it possible for physics rules to completely collapse?

It is currently unknown if physics rules can completely collapse or if there are underlying principles or laws that govern the behavior of the universe in these extreme conditions. Further research and advancements in physics may provide more insight into this question in the future.
