Physical World

The physical world includes the complications of the natural world around us. It is a type of analysis of the physical world around us to understand how it works. The fundamental forces that control nature are:

  • Gravitational Force is a universal force that exists as an outcome of mutual attraction between any two objects with respect to their masses.
  • Electromagnetic Force can be understood as the force that is present between the charged particles. The force is stated by Coulomb’s law.
  • Strong Nuclear Force is the force that ties the protons and neutrons in a nucleus. Of all the elemental forces in nature, a strong nuclear force is the strongest as its name suggests.
  • Weak Nuclear Force can only be noticed in some of the nuclear processes such as the beta decay of the nucleus.
