- Albert Einstein [r]: 20th-century physicist who formulated the theories of relativity. [e]
- Astrophysics [r]: Hybrid of Physics and Astronomy that attempts to explain the physical workings of the celestial objects and phenomena. [e]
- Electromagnetic wave [r]: a change, periodic in space and time, of an electric field E(r,t) and a magnetic field B(r,t); a stream of electromagnetic waves, referred to as electromagnetic radiation, can be seen as a stream of massless elementary particles, named photons. [e]
- Energy (science) [r]: A measurable physical quantity of a system which can be expressed in joules (the metric unit for a quantity of energy) or other measurement units such as ergs, calories, watt-hours or Btu. [e]
- Ether (physics) [r]: Medium that can carry electromagnetic waves (obsolete) [e]
- Gravitation [r]: The tendency of objects with mass to accelerate toward each other. [e]
- Lorentz force [r]: Force on an electrically charged particle that moves through a magnetic and an electric field. [e]
- Mechanics [r]: In physics, all theories explaining the behaviour of matter. [e]
- Momentum [r]: mass of a particle times its velocity (a vector). [e]
- Quantum mechanics [r]: An important branch of physics dealing with the behavior of matter and energy at very small scales. [e]
- Radiation [r]: Transmission of energy through space. [e]
- Redshift [r]: A term used in Astronomy and Physics to refer to the phenomenon by which electromagnetic radiation's observed wavelength increases, thereby causing an apparent decrease in the observed frequency. [e]
- Speed of light [r]: Is in vacuum c ≡ 299 792 458 m/s (exact). [e]
