I know we use a capital letter when the noun denotes a particular individual item rather than a kind of thing, so when we say Physics should we use a capital letter?

you're splendid, physics isn't common, and atmospheric physics fantastically so. The "common physics" factors of the greenhouse result are oftentimes fairly incorrect. And evidently to be the case right here which you have have been given taken your understanding of the GE from considered one of them. to start with, no, the GE would not perform in any respect like an honestly greenhouse, which acts just to limit air circulation interior its partitions. And few human beings as we talk believe that does, so there is little reason to proceed to exist it. Your first fake impact is that including extra CO2 to the ambience will further close the infrared "window." it is all waiting closed! very virtually all the infrared radiation emitted by using Earth's floor is absorbed by using the ambience interior countless meters of the exterior. including extra CO2 would not impact that. What it does impact is the place the radiation is in a position to flee to area. If we've been to examine Earth from afar we would see that that's radiating potential like an merchandise this is approximately 255 ok. even with the undeniable fact that, if we degree the temperature on the exterior we see that it is truthfully around 288 ok. that's by way of fact the point that Earth is radiating potential to area isn't on the exterior, yet severe up in the ambience, the place temperatures are lots less warm. This in turn is via the fact the ambience absorbs and reemits terrestrial radiation in all guidelines, until the radiation finally reaches a layer of the ambience severe adequate and skinny adequate to flee to area. that's the place the greenhouse result's presented in. If we upload extra CO2 (or the different GE) to the air, it makes the decrease layers of the ambience extra opaque, and so strikes the altitude that radiation is in a position to pass to area to a extra appropriate layer. those bigger layers are lots less warm, and additionally they do no longer radiate warmth so properly. subsequently the fee that radiation escapes to area is decrease, and the planet will take in better than it radiates. by way of fact the better tiers emit a number of the surplus downwards, the decrease tiers will heat all the way right down to the exterior. This clarification additionally refutes your 2nd fake impact, this is that all and sundry the considerable absorption happens close to to the exterior. this is partly authentic, yet beside the point in view that increasing CO2 concerns severe up in the ambience, the place CO2's absorption bands are not saturated.

Physics is not a proper noun, and therefore has a small letter unless it needs to be capitalised for some other reason. One such reason would be that it is starting a sentence, as it is in this answer.

generally physics is not used in the noun sense, so the answer would be no. However, if you where to use it for a specific name then you would use a capitalised P.

Ofcourse yes.
It indicates the name of the subject
So obviously we should use Capital letter

we must use capital when we refer to the Physics as a science...
i learnt this studying italian litterature at the university...
example:
translation is the action of translating
Translation is the science of translating
