Kinematics equations are used only by physicists and people who work in space.?

No, it is also used by students taking Physics and their professors.
You can use kinematics to find a shortcut (resultant vector) on how a plane or ship moves. You can use robot kinematics to find how a robotic arm will move. You can use it to study how particles move. You can use linear kinematics to discuss how a football player moves across the field. You can use it to design a track for a Hot Wheels racecar to go on.

Kinematics equations are used in LOTS of professions. For example, a person investigating a car accident to determine fault could use kinematics, dynamics and momentum equations to evaluate the claims of each driver (as to initial speed or coming to a full stop at a stop sign) from skid marks, final distance & direction from the point of impact.

Does the universe encompass all of space?
The universe certainly encompasses a lot of space, certainly all of known space and our galaxy. Many physicists think that our universe is all there is. However, a fair number of physicists also believe in the multiverse theory which states that there are many universes each with separate laws of physics. Therefore, for all practical reasons there is only one universe. Yet, there are still many highly qualified people who ould say that there are many universes out there each with there own "space."
What career deals with astrophysics?
Cosmologists, physicists, astronomers, or anything dealing with space. Having a career with NASA would deal with astrophysics.
What do you call a rip in space time?
It is not an established fact that space time has any rips in it, but the term wormhole has been used by physicists to describe a possible hole in the normal space time geometry, caused by an extreme gravitational field.
What is a good practice to use when balancing equations?
Leave a blank space before each substance in a reaction for the coefficients
Why do black holes takes people to space?
They do not take people to space.
What do high level math equations mean?
I mean on these science shows, you always see the physicists scribbling on a space board. I know it's not gibberish, but what are we looking at? They never seem to be able to explain the math to people w/ above average intelligence that could follow it if they could explain it. If you can't explain it to smart people, they become suspect.
What do astrophisics's do?
They are the same as physicists on the earth except they study the physics of space and celestial bodies
What do physicists mean by vacuum?
In Latin the word vacuum means empty space. It is a space from which most or all of the matter has been removed, or where there is little or no matter

What is an explaination of 4th dimension of space?
Einstein described gravity as a bend in space-time. Today, some physicists describe the fourth dimension as any space that's perpendicular to a cube.
What is measured in cubic liters?
Nothing. A litre is a 3-dimensional measure of volume. A cubic litre would be a measure of hyper-volume in 9-dimensional space. Most people work in terms of three dimensional space and 9-d space is reserved for mathematicians, physicists and sci-fi enthusiasts.
What career deals with astrophysics?
Cosmologists, physicists, astronomers, or anything dealing with space. Having a career with NASA would deal with astrophysics.
Is Time a Spacial Dimention?
Yes. Time and Space are the same thing, only in different forms. Theoretical physicists have done the math, and calculate that there should be around 10 dimensions in our space.

Is anything that has mass and takes up space is matter?
True, Matter is anything that takes up space and has mass<3 However, physicists say that some particles of matter are massless, such as photons.
According to the theory of general relativity space is curved most?
the curvature of space time is directly related to the energy and momentum of whatever matter and radiation are present. The relation is specified by the Einstein field equations, a system of partial differential equations.
Physicists have recently announced that they were able to slow down light waves until the light waves were almost frozen in space?
Yes, that is true.
