Introduction
A pathfinder is a guide to the resources in a particular subject area in the

library. It is an instruction/research tool designed to encourage researchers
to do a self-directed use of the library.
The Science and Technology Library provide pathfinders basically to support

students and faculty in their search for recorded literature and resources
available at the USC Library System and accessible on the Net.
Should you have comments, questions and suggestions on this pathfinder,

please contact Science and Technology Library at 2300100 local 269 or email
to cllanticse@usc.edu.ph
Key Term : Physics/Applied Physics
Scope : Physics, science that deals with the structure

of matter and the interactions between the fundamental
constituents of the observable universe. In the broadest
sense, physics (from the Greek physikos) is concerned
with all aspects of nature on both the macroscopic and
submicroscopic levels. Its scope of study encompasses
not only the behaviour of objects under the action of
given forces but also the nature and origin of
gravitational, electromagnetic, and nuclear force fields.
Its ultimate objective is the formulation of a few
comprehensive principles that bring together and
explain all such disparate phenomena.
