| physical alteration Any change in a body or substance that does not involve an alteration in its chemical composition | fyzikálna zmena |
| physical chemistry A science dealing with the effects of physical phenomena on chemical properties | fyzikálna chémia |
| physical conditions | fyzikálne podmienky |
| physical environment The material surroundings of a system, process or organism | fyzikálne prostredie |
| physical geography The study of the spatial and temporal characteristics and relationships of all phenomena within the Earth's physical environment | fyzická geografia |
| physical measurement of pollution The quantitative determination of the presence, extent or type of pollutant substances in the environment using mechanical means, including optical, electrical, acoustical and thermodynamic techniques | fyzikálne meranie znečistenia |
| physical oceanography The study of the physical aspects of the ocean, the movements of the sea, and the variability of these factors in relationship to the atmosphere and the ocean bottom | fyzická oceánografia |
| physical planning | priestorové plánovanie |
| physical planning A form of urban land use planning which attempts to achieve an optimal spatial coordination of different human activities for the enhancement of the quality of life | priestorové plánovanie |
| physical pollutant A pollutant characterized by its influence on environmental conditions caused by forces and operations of physics, such as noise, microwave radiation, vibration, etc. | fyzikálna znečisťujúca látka |
| physical pollution The introduction or presence of harmful substances or forces in the environment that cause damage to the environment and its processes due to their material actions, as through vibration, thermal alteration or electromagnetic radiation | fyzikálne znečistenie |
| physical process A continuous action or series of changes which alters the material form of matter | fyzikálny proces |
| physical property Property of a compound that can change without involving a change in chemical composition | fyzikálna vlastnosť |
| physical science The sciences concerned with nonliving matter, energy, and the physical properties of the universe, such as physics, chemistry, astronomy, and geology | fyzikálne vedy |
| physical treatment Processes that separate components of a waste stream or change the physical form of the waste without altering the chemical structure of the constituent materials. Physical treatment techniques are often used to separate the materials within the waste stream so that they can be reused or detoxified by chemical or biological treatment or destroyed by high-temperature incineration | fyzikálna úprava |
