The most fundamental of all sciences which provides basic principles and fundamental laws to other branches of science is_________?

Correct answer: B. physics

  • A. biology
  • B. physics
  • C. information technology
  • D. chemistry

Explanation

Physics is called a fundamental science because its laws describe basic properties of matter, energy, space and time and support many other sciences. Chemistry is the likely alternative because it also explains natural phenomena, but chemistry uses many underlying physical principles.

About Newton's Laws of Motion

Newton’s laws explain inertia, the relation between net force and acceleration, and action-reaction pairs. Questions involve free-body diagrams, balanced and unbalanced forces, F = ma, force as the rate of change of momentum, and identifying genuine third-law pairs, which act on different bodies.
