Diagram That Contains All The Different Kind Of Physics?

AI Thread Summary
A request for a diagram illustrating various physics disciplines, such as Quantum Physics and the Physics of Sound Waves, was made. Hyperphysics was mentioned as a useful resource, but the Physics and Astronomy Classification Scheme (PACS) was highlighted as a more comprehensive categorization tool for sub-disciplines. Users shared helpful links that provided the needed information. The discussion concluded positively, with gratitude expressed for the shared resources. Overall, the conversation focused on finding structured information about the different areas of physics study.

I am looking for some kind of a diagram, general or analytic, that shows all the different kind of Physics "Departments"-"Studies" or what you would call them, like Quantum Physics, Physics of Sound Waves, or something like that.

I know it is a very general question but anything you know of would be of great help. Thanks in advance.

The http://www.aip.org/publishing/pacs/pacs-2010-regular-edition codes (Physics and Astronomy Classification Scheme) categorize all of the sub-disciplines of physics down to a very detailed level.

guys i am currently studying in computer science engineering [1st yr]. i was intrested in physics when i was in high school. due to some circumstances i chose computer science engineering degree. so i want to incoporate computer science engineering with physics and i came across computational physics. i am intrested studying it but i dont know where to start. can you guys reccomend me some yt channels or some free courses or some other way to learn the computational physics.
TL;DR Summary: What topics to cover to safely say I know arithmetic ? I am learning arithmetic from Indian NCERT textbook. Currently I have finished addition ,substraction of 2 digit numbers and divisions, multiplication of 1 digit numbers. I am moving pretty slowly. Can someone tell me what topics to cover first to build a framework and then go on in detail. I want to learn fast. It has taken me a year now learning arithmetic. I want to speed up. Thanks for the help in advance. (I also...
I'm going to make this one quick since I have little time. Background: Throughout my life I have always done good in Math. I almost always received 90%+, and received easily upwards of 95% when I took normal-level HS Math courses. When I took Grade 9 "De-Streamed" Math (All students must take "De-Streamed" in Canada), I initially had 98% until I got very sick and my mark had dropped to 95%. The Physics teachers and Math teachers talked about me as if I were some sort of genius. Then, an...
