Philosophy is the study of general and fundamental problems, such as those connected with reality, existence, knowledge, values, reason, mind and language. Philosophers have provided ideas of the rules of the universe, and why things are the way that they are. The famous philosopher Aristotle once said, “All human beings by nature desire to understand.” Physics has helped the world to have a better understanding of the rules of the universe. The official definition of physics is “the study of matter, energy, and the interaction between them”. This actually means that physics is about asking fundamental questions and trying to answer them by observing and experimenting. Physics allows philosophers to experiment and prove their philosophical theories. Philosophy and Physics have their differences, but a similarity between them are that they are both subjects that want an understanding, as well as answers to life. Both subjects seek truth in the universe that we live in.
