Well, I want you to tell me the reason that you like physics and which branch you like the most.
How is this relevant?thankz said:get a vaporizer, the kind that's rechargeable and uses refillable liquid, I'm 2 months without smoking.
Greg Bernhardt said:I like physics because it opens my mind to the hidden realities of how our world works. I think the quantum world is the most fascinating at the moment.

micromass said:That's not really good for a physicist. you will encounter certain problem that requires days or weeks of thinking about. If you can't spend that much time on a problem, then science might not be for you. I'm not trying to discourage you, but you should know what you're getting into!
CrystalCaribean said:I guess I should've explained that a bit more. I do very well in an environment where I have something to ponder, something to solve. Now, granted, I am VERY much a "pace back and forth while I'm thinking" kind of girl. But, no one said that being a scientist means you need to be confined to your desk chair in a seated position all day, right? I have two giant dry erase boards hanging in my living room and I like to work out my problems/homework there. So, I may be moving, but I'm also thinking! :)
micromass said:Oh ok. I'm a back-and-forth person myself. I like to walk and move while thinking or while listening. I've known quite a lot of people like that too. I guess it really helps :D
NewtonsFellow said:Because I'm curios and because it's the most fundamental science.
That's what I meant by "It likes me back"... That rush you get with the "A-Ha!" moment when you discover something new for yourself.gleem said:Let's face it as scientists we should know that the reason we all "like" Physics is that the Serotonin levels in the brain spike when we do it.

Physics is considered the most fundamental science because it studies the fundamental principles and laws that govern the behavior of matter and energy in the universe. It provides the foundation for understanding all other sciences, such as chemistry, biology, and astronomy.
Physics is fascinating to study because it helps us understand the world around us and the laws that govern it. It allows us to make predictions about the behavior of matter and energy, and its applications have led to numerous technological advancements that have greatly improved our lives.
Physics impacts our daily lives in many ways. From the technology we use, such as smartphones and computers, to the infrastructure we rely on, such as electricity and transportation, all of these are based on principles of physics. It also helps us understand natural phenomena, such as weather patterns and the motion of objects.
Some of the most important discoveries in physics include Newton's laws of motion, Einstein's theory of relativity, and the discovery of subatomic particles such as electrons and protons. Other significant advancements include the development of quantum mechanics, which has revolutionized our understanding of the behavior of matter at the atomic and subatomic level.
Studying physics can benefit us in many ways. It can improve our critical thinking and problem-solving skills, as well as our ability to analyze and interpret data. It also allows us to better understand the world around us and make informed decisions about important issues, such as climate change and energy sources. Additionally, a background in physics can lead to a wide range of career opportunities in fields such as engineering, medicine, and research.
