Classical physics refers to the branch of physics that deals with the laws of motion and forces on macroscopic scales. It encompasses Newtonian mechanics, which describes the behavior of objects at everyday speeds and sizes.

Conservation Laws: Principles stating that certain properties (such as energy, momentum, or angular momentum) remain constant in isolated systems.
Macroscopic Scale: The scale at which objects are large enough to be seen with the naked eye and their behavior can be described using classical physics.
