The study of physics is the study of the underlying rules by which the Universe operates. There are many reasons to study physics:
- Understanding natural law is the key to building technology. When you know that a less dense material will tend to rise to the top of a more dense material, for example, you can then invent balloons. (REALLY basic example there). Of course, some inventions come about simply by accident, but you get farther through understanding rather than accident.
- Natural curiosity. We study it because we WANT to understand why things are the way they are.
- Puzzle solving. Some people just like solving puzzles. The study of physics is great fun for puzzle-solvers.
- To seek insight on the big WHY. I have a degree in physics from UNC-Chapel Hill (Go Heels!). I chose to study physics to see what I might glean about the nature of the universe and what it might reveal about who we are, why we're here, and what role any possible Creator could have played. I went looking for the "Signature of the Artist" within the Universe. I won't say I found it, but I did learn a bit about what a Creator might and might not be and a bit of humility about being a very tiny part of a very complex Universe.

You will put physics to good use later on. Later in life when you make your husband get up on the ladder and clean gutters, it will help you to know-with the amount of tools he is carry with him, his body weight, the height of the ladder, the length of the water hose-how far you should stand away so he won't land on you when he falls, and other similiar situations.

first take an interest on difficulty. next almost understand the thoughts. as an get at the same time take AC generator, recognize the way it truly works? and the way it truly is man made?and so on briefly. then you definately will discover physics is amazingly person-friendly. because you're in tenth std you verify your self by technique of writing more effective checks. each and each of the suited on your exam.

It really is the basis of all the other sciences, how matter and energy reacts. Almost like a child learning a language so they have the tools necessary to learn everything else.

To make people understand that nature can be so structured and easy to understand and that laws applies to almost everything (or everything normal). In other words - there are patters everywhere in nature.
