It’s hard not to give examples, you need them to back up your argument:

Physics is perhaps the most basic of the sciences as its discoveries and principles have profound implications for all the other sciences, and hence it has a major effect on our lives. Although the ancient Greeks made various pronouncements about science, it was not until much later that famous physicists such as Sir Isaac Newton and Michael Faraday started to put it on a sound foundation, with experiment setting theory firmly in its place. The Newtonian apple had presented a clear experimental fact and led to the concept of gravity which is still with us! It is commonly thought that Albert Einstein disproved Newtonian mechanics by showing in his theory of relativity that light is bent by gravity, and even that energy and mass are interchangeable. However, a more enlightened view is that both theories can coexist, though the latter one gives the more exact answers that are sometimes needed. This often happens in Physics, which can be thought of as the discipline of trying to model natural phenomena. If for some purpose we have a model which is insufficiently accurate, then a more highly developed one must be constructed, though its greater complexity may make it more clumsy to use. Ultimately, we aim to have a “theory of everything”…

Remember Physics is “Why”, Chemistry is “What” & Math is the “sweet language of Physics”. Anyone who doesn’t understand simply asks why so & ‘why’ is connected with Physics. Why so? is always a basic question for anything & everything which is not understood & so Physics is the most basic of sciences.

because the main answer u need is in the question …it is not secret…it is paradox..we cant give any answer because it changes time to time…im only curious what will happen if the cern experiment goes wrong 🙂
