Classical mechanics, right from the first time i learned Newton’s laws, it was always so satisfying to me. Just pure and well rounded logic to explain everything, it’s so neat.
Best example for me was the 2 body problem. Going from the 6 degrees of freedom to a simple uniform rectilinear motion of the center of mass and then leaving us with only 2 degrees of freedom. Such a elegant solution, so satisfying.
I love Physics, but mostly Classical Mechanics, especially Continuum Mechanics. I am also a sucker for Information Theory and Theory of Computation.
