1) Defines whether the object is subject to physics - gravity, inertia, friction etc. Don't build your masterpiece and turn it on, as it'll make you cry when it all falls down... ;)
2) Causes a prim to auto-delete after a minute or so. Designed for things like bullets.
3) Turns off collision-detection for the object. Think phantom=ghost. You can see it, but not collide with it, i.e. walk on it, bounce off, etc...
4) Physics-based links for objects. AFAIK these are broken and should probably be avoided.

Hope that helps.
