PHYSICS TRIVIA QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS:

Physics Trivia Questions and Answers are made by collecting information about different concepts of physics.

ABOUT PHYSICS:

Defining physics is the study of energy and matter and their relationships in space and time. Physics studies how things move and what forces make them move. For example, physics uses speed and acceleration to show how things move.
