Physics is the underlying science of all other sciences. The study of all fundamental forces and processes from the subatomic to the "astronomic" size scales is the purview of physics.
For students of science other than physicists the purpose of learning physics is both the understanding of basic concepts and the application of problem solving skills developed during that process.
