Sarvarthapedia Area-2 (Universe)
The second area (The Universe): Physical Sciences and Mathematics, addresses the fundamental laws governing the cosmos. It includes disciplines such as physics, chemistry, and astronomy, which seek to explain the behavior of matter, energy, space, and time. Mathematics serves as the language of the universe, providing formal structures for modeling and prediction. Topics range from quantum mechanics and thermodynamics to cosmology and astrophysics, as well as algebra, calculus, and statistics. This area highlights humanity’s quest to understand the underlying order of existence through observation, experimentation, and abstraction.
