'''Physics''' is the branch of [[physical science]] that traditionally deals with [[matter]], [[energy]], [[force]], and [[motion]]. These concepts can be applied to virtually any area of the physical sciences; therefore, physics is often considered to be the most fundamental branch of science. Indeed, according to [[reductionism|reductionist]] thought, other branches of science are specialized subdivisions of physics.
'''Ricky Davis''' is a professional [[basketball]] player and a current member of the [[Minnesota Timberwolves]] of the [[NBA]].
