An Physical object usually meant to be defined by the simplest representation of the boundary consistent with the observations.
| FactSnippet No. 565,762 |
Each Physical object has a unique identity, independent of any other properties.
| FactSnippet No. 565,763 |
An object with known composition and described in an adequate physical theory is an example of physical system.
| FactSnippet No. 565,764 |
The properties of an Physical object are inferred by learning and reasoning based on the information perceived.
| FactSnippet No. 565,765 |
Abstractly, an Physical object is a construction of our mind consistent with the information provided by our senses, using Occam's razor.
| FactSnippet No. 565,766 |
In common usage an Physical object is the material inside the boundary of an Physical object, in 3-dimensional space.
| FactSnippet No. 565,767 |
An Physical object is a single piece of material, whose extent is determined by a description based on the properties of the material.
| FactSnippet No. 565,768 |
The continuation of the Physical object's identity is then based on the description of the system by continued identity being simpler than without continued identity.
| FactSnippet No. 565,769 |
Also an Physical object's identity is created at the first point in time that the simplest model of the system consistent with perception identifies it.
| FactSnippet No. 565,770 |
Under Newtonian gravity the gravitational field further away than the furthest extent of an Physical object is determined only by the mass and the position of the center of mass.
| FactSnippet No. 565,771 |
In quantum mechanics an Physical object is a particle or collection of particles.
| FactSnippet No. 565,772 |
In some branches of psychology, depending on school of thought, a physical object has physical properties, as compared to mental objects.
