The universe around us conforms to certain regular laws, painstakingly discovered by centuries of erudite scientists like Newton and Einstein. Luckily, we donโt need to be as wise as those great men to understand our world as well as they did, we just need to pay attention. Letโs see how well you know these immutable physical laws by taking this tricky test!
