Provide a brief summary of the page here

==Fundamental Interactions==

These are the most basic interactions in physical systems. There are four conventionally accepted fundamental interactions:
'''Gravitational, Electromagnetic, Strong force, and Weak force.'''

===Gravitational Interaction===

This is the ''Interaction'' that a planet or some other large body that has it's own gravitational field can exert on the System from the
Surroundings.
The '''Gravitational Interaction''' from the Earth on an object that is within Earth's gravitational field is 9.81 meters per second squared (m/s^2).

===Electromagnetic Interaction===

This is the ''Interaction'' that charged particles can exert on the System from the Surroundings.
Here we use '''Coulomb's Constant''' (8.98*10^9 n/m^2 (newtons*meters squared)) to describe the ''Interaction'' between electrically charged particles.

===Strong Force===

This is the ''Interaction'' between subatomic particles of matter. The strong force binds quarks together
in clusters to make more-familiar subatomic particles, such as protons and neutrons. It also holds together the atomic nucleus.

===Weak force===

This is the ''Interaction'' that governs the decay of unstable subatomic particles such as mesons.
It also initiates the nuclear fusion reaction that fuels the Sun.

I like long walks on the beach, or at least walking on a sandy treadmill.

I actually like neither of those things.

I can't submit this for grading on WebAssign yet, so I'll just leave my signature with timestamp here. --[[User:Austinrocket|Austinrocket]] ([[User talk:Austinrocket|talk]]) 23:17, 18 October 2015 (EDT)

I like long walks on the beach, or just walking on a sandy treadmill.

I actually like neither of those things.

Welcome to the Georgia Tech Wiki for Intro Physics. This resources was created so that students can contribute and curate content to help those with limited or no access to a textbook. When reading this website, please correct any errors you may come across. If you read something that isn't clear, please consider revising it!

Looking to make a contribution?
#Pick a specific topic from intro physics
#Add that topic, as a link to a new page, under the appropriate category listed below by editing this page.
#Copy and paste the default [[Template]] into your new page and start editing.

Please remember that this is not a textbook and you are not limited to expressing your ideas with only text and equations. Whenever possible embed: pictures, videos, diagrams, simulations, computational models (e.g. Glowscript), and whatever content you think makes learning physics easier for other students.

== Source Material ==
All of the content added to this resource must be in the public domain or similar free resource. If you are unsure about a source, contact the original author for permission. That said, there is a surprisingly large amount of introductory physics content scattered across the web. Here is an incomplete list of intro physics resources (please update as needed).
* A physics resource written by experts for an expert audience [https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portal:Physics Physics Portal]
* A wiki book on modern physics [https://en.wikibooks.org/wiki/Modern_Physics Modern Physics Wiki]
* The MIT open courseware for intro physics [http://ocw.mit.edu/resources/res-8-002-a-wikitextbook-for-introductory-mechanics-fall-2009/index.htm MITOCW Wiki]

== Organizing Catagories ==
These are the broad, overarching categories, that we cover in two semester of introductory physics. You can add subcategories or make a new category as needed. A single topic should direct readers to a page in one of these catagories.

===Interactions===
<div class="mw-collapsible-content">
*Fundamental Interactions
'''Fundamental interactions''', are the most basic interactions in physical systems.
There are four conventionally accepted fundamental interactions: '''Gravitational, Electromagnetic, Strong force, and Weak force.'''

The '''Garvitational Interaction''' is the ''Interaction'' that a planet or some other large body that has it's own gravitational field can exert
on the System from the Surroundings. The '''Gravitational Interaction''' from the Earth onto an object that is within Earth's gravitational field
is 9.81 meters per second squared (m/s^2).

The '''Electromagnetic Interaction''' is the ''Interaction'' that charged particles can exert on the System from the Surroundings. Here we use
'''Coulomb's Constant''' (8.98*10^9 n/m^2 (newtons*meters squared)) to describe the ''Interaction'' between electrically charged particles.

The '''Strong Force''' is the ''Interaction'' between subatomic particles of matter. The strong force binds quarks together in clusters to
make more-familiar subatomic particles, such as protons and neutrons. It also holds together the atomic nucleus.

The '''Weak force''' is the ''Interaction'' that governs the decay of unstable subatomic particles such as mesons. It also initiates the
nuclear fusion reaction that fuels the Sun.

*System & Surroundings.
A '''System''' is a part of the universe that we choose to study. The '''Surroundings''' are everything else that ''surrounds'' the '''System'''.
