There are four fundamental forces electromagnetism the strong nuclear force the weak nuclear force and gravity. There are also four branches of physics, classical, quantum physics, general relativity and of course special relativity.
Is this a coincidence?

what about string theory?
>>9047392
Idk isn't that just quantum?
Special relativity is a special case of general relativity (hence the name). Classical mechanics is just a limit of quantum mechancis.
3/4 of the forces you listed are described via quantum field theory. Gravity described (classically) by general relativity.

String Theory encompasses everything, at least in principle. In practice it can describe gravity and electromagnetism at quantum scales, the nuclear forces (i.e. non-abelian gauge theories) are still somewhat difficult to work with in the context of String Theory.
There are also four body parts mentioned in that nursery rhyme.
Head, shoulders, feets and toes
Coincidence?

what about fifth, which is astrology?
check and mate
Yes.
>>9047494
Not an argument

Classical physics isn't a real branch.
