Why is it that some people who are bad at math are good at physics?

Must be conceptual physics as physics has one language and that language is mathematics. I have never known a physicists that was not good at math.


Which is more easy mathematics or physics?

Mathematics is easier. Physics requires mathematics to understand physics. Different people find different subjects easier. For some, physics is more concrete and easier.


Why is it that some people are great with math but not great writers?

Different people have different skills and aptitudes: some are good at mathematics but are not great writers, some are great writers but not much good at mathematics, some are good at both and some at neither.Different people have different skills and aptitudes: some are good at mathematics but are not great writers, some are great writers but not much good at mathematics, some are good at both and some at neither.Different people have different skills and aptitudes: some are good at mathematics but are not great writers, some are great writers but not much good at mathematics, some are good at both and some at neither.Different people have different skills and aptitudes: some are good at mathematics but are not great writers, some are great writers but not much good at mathematics, some are good at both and some at neither.


What is relation between science nature physics and mathematics?

physics attempts (and does a good job) to describe events observed in nature. Physics uses mathematics for some of the explanation. Gravitational attraction described by Newton used a math equation.


Can you learn mathematics through physis?

You can learn certain things that are used to calculate some numbers in Physics. If you are in Advanced Physics you need to know Mathematics to continue. So I would say no. You have to learn both in order to be good, starting with Mathematics


Why are some people good at mathematics but bad at physics chemistry computer science and engineering?

Because math, physics, chemistry and computer science are not the same things. Just because you're good at using maths doesn't necessarily mean you're not good at applying them. Theoretical and applied mathematics are widely considered very different fields.


Is it true that some people who are excellent at math will have a harder time with physics and engineering?

Not at at all, both fields are mathematics heavy.


Can a mathematics major do well in physics and engineering?

Some can, others can't.


Relation between physics and math?

You NEED math to understand physics. If you don't know math, you won't be able to understand physics. The mathematical structure of a physics theory often points the way to further advances in that theory and even to empirical predictions, and argued that this is not just a coincidence and therefore must reflect some larger and deeper truth about both mathematics and physics. Various approximations that constitute our current physics theories are successful because simple mathematical structures can provide good approximations of certain aspects of more complex mathematical structures. In other words, our successful theories are not mathematics approximating physics, but mathematics approximating mathematics.


Is it true that a mathematics expert is more likely to fail chemistry and physics?

It depends on what you mean. If you mean "more likely to fail chemistry and physics than to fail mathematics", then the answer is presumably yes. If you mean "more likely to fail chemistry and physics than some bozo who can't figure out how this 'multiplication' thing works", then no. In physics and (most kinds of) chemistry, a solid understanding of mathematics can only be helpful.


Why are you good at physics and hopeless at maths?

Chemistry, Physics and Engineering are not made up of just mathematics, there are a lot of understanding of the physics and chemistry concepts to do well in those courses too. Most people who are bad at math will have difficulty solving physics and chemistry problems (although they may understand the concepts). though they might be quite good at certain kinds of chemistry (synthetic organic chemistry, for example, which is more about memorization and less about mathematical skills). However, being good at math does not automatically mean you'll also be good at chemistry."Good at math" is also a somewhat vague term. You can be a whiz at simple arithmetic and still be horrible at analytical-type mathematics ("word problems") which are more similar to the kind of understanding of mathematics that's required in the physical sciences. So if someone doesn't have an understanding of the concepts, then they would have difficulty setting up the math equations (which will model the actual physics, chemistry etc.)
