Week 4

E=MC2 - not only affected me - but every other person on the planet. I believe it is the true "beginning" of physics.

The 4 forces - I can't say that even after 14 weeks of reading about physics, that i can truly compair the four forces in a comprehensive manner. SO if I understand what they are - they try to explain the reasons of why particles act the way they do - either by staying together and forming something or be separating and "decaying"

Gravity - Seems to me that gravity's function is to hold things together - without it , particles wouldn't be able to hold together and form..well.. life! Without gravity all the particles would just float around and bounce off of each other.
