Physics is a very important part of our everyday lives! Just go for a walk through the park and you’ll see for yourself. From the wind that rustles the trees, to the sun that keeps us warm, to the car that drives us around and the food that gives us energy to play, physics is all around us, all the time! As we journey through this book we will see how physics explains all of these amazing things, and a whole lot more. We’ll look at the basic laws of Universe, the fundamental rules that describe the nature of our world and beyond.
