Barred Spiral Galaxy NGC 1300 About 2  meters in diameter

Physics is the study of the very small.  And the very large.  And everything in between. Topic 1: Physics and physical measurement 1.1 The realm of physics  Size of visible universe is about meters.  Age of universe is about seconds.  Mass of universe is about kilograms.  The mass of a quark is about kilograms.  Diameter of atom is about meters.  Diameter of a nucleus is about meters.  Smallest particles called quarks about m.  Planck length is about meters.  Speed of light is about 10 8 meters per second.

Physics is the study of the very small.  And the very large.  And everything in between. Topic 1: Physics and physical measurement 1.1 The realm of physics EXAMPLE: Given that the smallest length in the universe is the Planck length of meters and that the fastest speed in the universe is that of light at 10 8 meters per second, find the smallest time interval in the universe. SOLUTION:  Speed is distance divided by time (s = d / t).  Using algebra we can write t = d / s.  Substitution yields t = / 10 8 = seconds.

Physics is the study of the very small.  And the very large.  And everything in between. Topic 1: Physics and physical measurement 1.1 The realm of physics EXAMPLE: Find the difference in order of magnitude of the mass of the universe to the mass of a quark. SOLUTION:  Make a ratio (fraction) and simplify.  kilograms / kilograms =  Note that the kilograms cancels leaving a unitless power of ten.  The answer is 80 orders of magnitude.
