UNIT 1: INTRO TO
(8 DAYS)
Physical science is the study of matter and energy. That covers a lot of territory because matter refers to all the “stuff” that exists in the universe. It includes everything you can see and many things that you cannot see, including the air around you. Energy is also universal. It’s what gives matter the ability to move and change. Electricity, heat, and light are some of the forms that energy can take. |
