Well, while physics is very mathematical, you also need the ability to understand things conceptually. Like a ball falling through the air has a couple equations associated with it but as a physicist you have to be able to truly understand what those equations mean.

Is it hard for a person to do well in physics if he or she is good at math?

No, a person who is good at math will have the best chance of doing well in physics.


Is it possible for a person who is good at mathematics but a terrible essay writer to do well in physics chemistry and engineering?

Yes, that is possible. The sciences of physics, chemistry, and engineering do not depend upon the ability to write essays.


Is it hard for a person to do well in physics and engineering if he or she is good at math?

No. The opposite is true. A person who is good at math will tend to do well in physics and engineering.

no


Can a person who is good at mathematics do well in chemistry?

Yes


Is it possible for a person to be good at physics but horrible at mathematics?

I suppose it is possible but it is unlikely depending on your definition of good. It is possible that someone could grasp the ideas and principles of physics well without needing any skill in maths. However to truly be good at physics one also has to understand the mathematical relationships which physics reveals about the Universe and so this is why the two subjects sit together well.


What does being excellent at math have to do with doing well in physics?

Mathematics is the language of physics. You cannot do well in physics unless you can handle the math. If you are excellent at math, you have a better chance of being very good or excellent in physics, too.


Can a person who is good at mathematics do well in thermodynamics?

Usually yes. A person who does not like mathematics is almost sure not to like thermodynamics!


What sciences can you do well in if you are great with mathematics?

Computing. Chemistry Physics


Can a mathematics major do well in physics and engineering if he is also good at economics?

Of course, there isn't a reason not to, because mathematics is the language of economics, science and engineering(with the exception of computer programming).


Can a mathematics major do well in physics and engineering?

Some can, others can't.


Can anyone who is strong at math as well as physics and chemistry do well in computer programming languages as well as all fields of engineering?

Mathematics, chemistry and physics form much of the basis of engineering - do well at those and you should do well in engineering. Mathematics is the only applicable subject related to computer programming, but being good at the other two subjects indicates both a logical mindset and good memory for information, which are useful skills in any computer-related field.
