Classical Physics is the physics which was taught and used before RELATIVITY and QUANTUM MECHANICS were introduced.
In Classical physics, masses remain constant when they accelerate and clocks tick in unison wherever they are and at all velocities. But this is not true, especially at very high speeds. Relativity is more accurate and is necessary for the speeds that satellites travel at.
Classical mechanics cannot explain the dynamics of sub-atomic particles or how light and other kinds of radiation interact with matter. It is necessary, in explaining the structure of atoms and the nuclear processes, to use Quantum Mechanics which "quantises" energy. For example, if one particle is to pass energy to another particle, it can only be done if an exact amount of energy is available. This amount is a "quantum" and the size of a quantum depends on the wavelength of the radiated energy. Nobody knows why.
We understand the laws of Classical Physics - they seem logical.
Nobody understands relativity or quantum mechanics. However, the laws are true and so we use them and get the right answers. Why the laws of Modern Physics are with us is beyond our understanding, simply because we are humble three dimensional beings, limited to passage through time in a direction and rate beyond our control. In Modern physics there can be many more dimensions and time may pass at variable rates in different places. That is why we can't understand Modern Physics.

What is modern physics?
Physics is the science of matter and energy and of interactions between the two, grouped in traditional fields such as acoustics, optics, mechanics, thermodynamics, and electromagnetism, as well as in modern extensions including atomic and nuclear physics, cryogenics, solid-state physics, particle physics, and plasma physics
What is Max Plancks education?
his education was that he discover the modern physics. with out that we would be over weight people that's why its very important that he dicoverd that (:
Father of modren science?
Galileo Galilei has frequently been called the father of modern science. Galileo made many advances in the fields of astronomy and physics.
Did Max Planck win the noble prize?
Yes, Max Planck won the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1918. He was awarded the prize for his pioneering work in the development of quantum theory, specifically for his discovery of energy quanta. This groundbreaking work laid the foundation for quantum mechanics, which became one of the most important and transformative fields in modern physics.

Defferentiate physical science from life science?
Physical sciences are generally Maths and Physics, while life science is generally Biology and Psychology, with Chemistry lying partway between the two.
What type of physics is the theory of relativity?
Modern physics!
What do you mean by modren physics?
Typically, there are considered two forms of physics. Newtonian and modern. Newtonian relates to Newton-era mechanics and E&M. Modern physics loosely refers to post-newton physics. Modern physics primarily refers to 20th century physics as it incorporates relativity and quantum theory.
What are the two major divisions of physics?
The two major divisions of physics are classical physics and modern physics. Classical physics deals with the study of macroscopic phenomena using principles such as Newtonian mechanics and thermodynamics. Modern physics, on the other hand, explores the behavior of matter and energy at the atomic and subatomic levels, incorporating theories like quantum mechanics and relativity.
How did Isaac newtons discoveries influence modern life?
All of today's modern physics are based on it- and all of today's technology is based on modern physics
