How does physics relate to nursing?

I saw on the Meta thread that questions just keep recurring unless they are answered. So here's one reply to an especially challenging qu, that might take it out of circulation :)

Nurses use physics to deal with advanced technology, electrical measurements, sound waves and radiography; nurse anesthetists must learn how the gases they use work and how flow rates affect overall patient outcomes; and surgical nurses rely on certain aspects of physics to operate equipment and perform calculations regarding the care and safety of a patient.

That's probably a complete under statement of how nurses use physics, and hopefully not an insult to nursing, but I claim that it is the only answer Socratic will ever garner :))

Physics relates to nursing in various ways, including understanding the principles of mechanics for patient transfers and movement, comprehending the behavior of fluids for administering medications and intravenous therapies, applying principles of thermodynamics for maintaining proper body temperature and managing heat loss, and understanding concepts of electricity for operating medical equipment such as defibrillators and monitors.
