Physical Science

LSE Physical Science with Mr. Will Smith

CONTENT

Physical Science is a semester course comprised of 9 weeks of physics and 9 weeks of chemistry.  What are these two subjects?

Physics: The study of matter and energy and of interactions between the two.

Chemistry: The study of matter and the changes it undergoes.

In other words, everything in the physical world going on around you in life happens for a specific reason.  Physics and Chemistry explain why things behave the way they do!

Physical Science is worth 5 credits toward your science requirement to graduate from high school.
