Physics, as a science, deals with the description of matter and its interactions, developing theories in accordance with empirical knowledge. From this definition one can study from the smallest scales (subatomic) to the macroscopic scale, hence the different branches of Physics. Physics is the base of an uncountable number of scientific and technological applications, and in particular for the Sea Sciences student it's a basic tool to understand other theories and subjects in the following years of the grade. The knowledge and application of laws and principles studied in Physics allows the interpretation of the marine enviroment and the development of models related with it. Furthermore, it is important to understand the fundamental physic concepts to understand how the instruments work and to know how to use and control them.
