A physical model is a representation of an object or system that is built to scale using physical materials. It can be used to study and understand the behavior, function, and structure of the object or system being modeled. Physical models can be used in a variety of fields, including engineering, architecture, science, and art. They can be simple or complex, depending on the complexity of the object or system being modeled. Physical models can be helpful in testing hypotheses, exploring different design options, and communicating ideas to others.
