学过物理的人都知道,物理学简称物理,是研究物质运动最一般规律和物质的基本结构的科学。不过,你是否知道,为什么会称这一门科学为物理学的呢?这就不能不先从词源上作一番考察了。“物理”这个词中国古已有之。西汉淮南王刘安(公元前179—前122年)招百家游士编撰的那本《淮南子》,其中《览冥训》篇就有:“耳目之察不足以分物理”的话。此后,《晋书·明帝纪》又记:“帝聪明有机断,犹精物理。”这里的“物理”泛指一切事物的道理,不是指一门科学的名称。
People who have studied physics know that physics is simply called physics and is the science that studies the most general laws of matter movement and the basic structure of matter. However, do you know why this science is called physics? This can not but be examined etymologically first. The word “physics” is ancient in China. In the Western Han Dynasty, Wang An, Huainan Wang (179 BC-122 BC) reclaimed Huai Nan Zi, a book compiled by Bai Hundreds of Tourists. Since then, “Jin Shu Ming Emperor Ji” also remembers: “The Emperor is clever and organic, still fine physical.” “Physical ” here refers to all things truth, does not refer to a scientific name.
