MaxPlank said:I think Classical Physics could be defined as an approximation of what Quantum Physics and Relativity discovered...I mean...The laws of classical physics doesn't change so much for our "order of magnitude", as a matter of fact they almost coincide with the "new physics" law... but when we handle with subatomic distances and speeds close to the speed of light...The laws of Classical Physics are no more valid.
Classical physics is a branch of physics that deals with the laws of motion and forces that govern the behavior of macroscopic objects, such as those we can see and interact with in our daily lives.
The main principles of classical physics are the laws of motion, the law of gravity, and the laws of thermodynamics. These principles explain how objects move, interact with each other, and respond to changes in energy.
Classical physics is based on the laws of motion and forces, while modern physics includes theories such as relativity and quantum mechanics. Classical physics is applicable to objects in our everyday world, while modern physics is used to study the behavior of particles at the atomic and subatomic level.
Classical physics can be seen in action in everyday phenomena, such as the motion of a ball rolling down a hill, the flight of a bird, and the behavior of gases in a balloon. It also explains the movement of planets in our solar system and the tides in the ocean.
Yes, classical physics is still relevant and widely used in many fields, including engineering, architecture, and mechanics. It provides a solid foundation for understanding the behavior of objects in our everyday world and is essential for many practical applications.
