Physical quantityA physical quantity is the result of measurement and usually expressed as the product of a numerical value and a physical unit (whereby SI units are usually preferred). Example : P 42. 3 x 103 W 42. 3 kW where P represents the physical quantity for power Physical constantIn science, a physical constant is a physical quantity whose numerical value does not change. It can be contrasted with a mathematical constant, which is a fixed value that does not directly involve a physical measurement. There are many physical constant PhysicalismSee also the old text of this article Physicalism/Larry's text. Physicalism is the metaphysical position that everything is physical; that is, that there are no kinds of things other than physical things.

Something that happens in the brain is a physical event. These are to be distinguished from mental events.

Important areas of study include chemical thermodynamics, chemical kinetics, quantum chemistry, statistical Physical sciencePhysical science is the branch of science including chemistry and physics, and sometimes contrasted with natural or biological science.
