Physical Science is an encompassing term for the branches of natural science and science that study non-living systems, in contrast to the life sciences.

Interdependence restores healthy relationships between human, non-human life forms, and non-living systems that support all life.

That is, in non-living systems, where no such "selection" is involved, entropy (lack of coherence) steadily increases, as stated in the famous Second Law of Thermodynamics.

The Counters are capable of interfacing with any living or non-living electrical impulse-based systems, from the human brain to any electronic device.

Even the interaction of non-living systems may be viewed in this way as rudimentary information processing systems.

Ecocentrism recognizes Earth's interactive living and non-living systems rather than just the Earth's organisms (biocentrism) as central in importance.

A physical science - one that studies non-living systems.

Muscles (or other actuators in non-living systems) do physical work, adding kinetic energy to the jumper's body over the course of a jump's propulsive phase.
