In physics, a conservation law is a law that states that a certain quantity remains constant over time. This quantity can be a physical property, such as energy, momentum, or mass, or it can be a more abstract quantity, such as entropy. Conservation laws are fundamental to our understanding of the universe, and they have been used to explain a wide range of phenomena, from the motion of planets to the behavior of subatomic particles.
