Fundamental science (or basic science, pure science) is science that describes the most basic objects, forces,

relations between them and laws governing them, such that all other phenomena may be in principle derived from them following the logic of scientific reductionism. Chemistry and physics are fundamental sciences; engineering is not. There is a difference between fundamental science and applied science (or practical science).[1] Fundamental science, in contrast to applied science, is defined as a fundamental knowledge it develops. The progress of fundamental science is based on well controlled experiments and careful observation. Fundamental science is dependent upon deductions from demonstrated truths, or is studied without regard to practical applications. Fundamental science has traditionally been associated with the natural sciences, however, research in the social and behavioral sciencescan be deemed fundamental (e.g., cognitive neuroscience, personality). BASIC SCIENCE (AS PSCHYCHOLOGY) Some of the research that is conducted in psychology is more "fundamental" than the research conducted in the applied psychological disciplines, and does not necessarily have a direct application. The subdisciplines within psychology that can be thought to reflect a basic-science orientation include biological psychology, cognitive psychology, neuropsychology, and so on. Research in these subdisciplines is characterized by methodological rigor. The concern of psychology as a basic science is in understanding the laws and processes that underlie behavior, cognition, and emotion. Psychology as a basic science provides a foundation for applied psychology. Applied psychology, by contrast, involves the application of psychological principles and theories yielded up by the basic psychological sciences; these applications are aimed at overcoming problems or promoting well-being in areas such as mental and physical health and education. Physical science, the systematic study of the inorganic world, as distinct from the study of the organic world, which is the province of biological science. Physical science is ordinarily thought of as consisting of four broad areas: astronomy, physics,chemistry, and the Earth sciences. Each of these is in turn divided into fields and subfields. This article discusses the historical development with due attention to the scope, principal concerns, and methodsof the first three of these areas. The Earth sciences are discussed in a separate article. Physical Science is a word which contains the subdivisions of natural science & science that deals with non-living systems, in comparison to the life sciences. However, the word "physical" makes an unpremeditated, somewhat arbitrary difference, since several twigs of physical science do study biological phenomena. There are a few basis principals of physical science and those are the elementary principal of chemistry, the basic principles for earth science and the basic principle of physics. The general principles of physical science states the basics of the physical sciences reposes upon key ideas &theories, all of them explains & / or models a specific feature of the actions of nature. Now here are the basic principles of chemistry. Chemistry, made upon physical notions, addresses phenomena related with the construction, arrangement & energetic of substance & the vicissitudes it undergoes. Frequently recognized as central science, it connects the important laws of physics to causing & further natural sciences like, earth science, biology, material science & astronomy. The subdivisions of the chemistry are Physical Chemistry, Computational Chemistry, Theoretical Chemistry, and Nuclear chemistry, Inorganic Chemistry, Analytical Chemistry, Biochemistry, Materials Chemistry and Electrochemistry. Definition: PHYSICAL SCIENCE Part of Speech Noun Definition 1. The physical properties, phenomena, and laws of something.[Wordnet] 2. The science of matter and energy and their interactions.[Wordnet].

Extended Definition: PHYSICAL SCIENCE Physical science Physical science is an encompassing term for the branches of natural science and science that study non-living systems, in contrast to the biological sciences. However, the term "physical" creates an unintended, somewhat arbitrary distinction, since many branches of physical science also study biological phenomena. Basic principles of the physical sciences The foundations of the physical sciences rests upon key concepts and theories, each of which explains and/or models a particular aspect of the behavior of nature. As in other sciences, these key concepts and theories came to discovery using the scientific method, which must be found using scientific evidence: Basic principles of astronomy Astronomy is the science of celestial bodies and their interactions in space. Its studies includes the following: The life and characteristics of stars and galaxies Origins of the universe. Physical science uses the Big Bang theory as the commonly accepted scientific theory of the origin of the universe A heliocentric solar system. Ancient and primitive cultures saw the earth as the center of the solar system or universe (geocentrism). In the 16th century, Nicolaus Copernicus advanced the ideas of heliocentrism, recognizing the sun as the center of the solar system. The structure of the solar system, planets, comets, asteroids, and meteors The shape and structure of Earth (roughly spherical, see also Spherical Earth) Earth in the Solar System Time measurement The composition and features of the Moon Interactions of the Earth and Moon

(Note: Astronomy should not be confused with astrology, which assumes that people's destiny and human affairs in general are correlated to the apparent positions of astronomical objects in the sky -- although the two fields share a common origin, they are quite different; astronomers embrace the scientific method, while astrologers do not.) Basic principles of chemistry Chemistry is the science of matter mainly at the micro-level. Chemistry can be called "the central science" because it connects the other natural sciences, such as astronomy, physics, material science, biology, and geology. It's studies include the following: Atomic theory o Principles of quantum mechanics o The discovery and classification of pure elements o Dmitri Mendeleev's creation of The Periodic Table of Chemical Elements showing the relationship of chemical elements o Properties of groups, especially metals, and nonmetals Water and its properties o Structure of the water molecule o Properties of water solutions, such as acids, bases, acid-base reaction theories,
