These criteria may be divided into the primary, secondary, and fundamental requirements of physics. The primary requirements include the need for physics to explain the physical world at all scales and time, to acknowledge that physics describes the real world and is dependent on observers for its measurement and interpretation. The indeterminacy inherent in the quantum mechanical framework is examined in this chapter, and it is concluded that this does not in any way affect the law of causality that forms a basic tenet of classical physics. All requirements of physics are subject to the fundamental requirement of physics, which states that the laws of physics are determined exclusively by the total content of the universe.Read More
