It is a science based on experiments observation and measurement. Experiments involve making things change. Observation is when scientists watch what they are studying very carefully. Measurement is describing things by their weight size or temperature. Physics looks at how tiny atoms are put together. Atoms are tiny particles that make up everything in the universe. Physics looks at how huge planets and stars move. It helps scientists understand the way matter acts. Matter includes the solids liquids and gases in the universe. Physics also helps scientists understand how energy acts. A physicist uses precise measurements. The protons and neutrons in the nucleus of an atom are surrounded by a cloud of electrons. Astrophysicists are physicists who study the stars and .
