geophysics, 

biophysics, and even psychophysics. Physics can, at base,


be defined as the science of matter, motion, and energy. Its laws are
typically expressed with economy and precision in the language
of mathematics.

Both experiment, the observation of phenomena under conditions that


are controlled as precisely as possible, and theory, the formulation of a
unified conceptual framework, play essential and complementary roles
in the advancement of physics. Physical experiments result in
measurements, which are compared with the outcome predicted by
theory. A theory that reliably predicts the results of experiments to
which it is applicable is said to embody a law of physics. However, a
law is always subject to modification, replacement, or restriction to a
more limited domain, if a later experiment makes it necessary.
