There is plenty of maths involved in all disciplines of science, not just physics, be it formulas or algebra or otherwise.

At GCSE level (British General Certificate of Secondary Education, usually taken between the ages of 13-16), Physics involves a lot of maths, mostly to do with power outputs and the like. For example, you'll need to know that the power output of an electrical item is the Wattage x Amp.

Of course, there are many more applications of maths at GCSE, A Level and higher, however, this is just a simple example.

Can math teacher teach physics?

yes a math teacher can teach physics


Are you bad at physics and engineering if you are good at mathematics?

Of course not. Certainly, you won't be bad at physics or engineering BECAUSE OF your math skills. You NEED math for physics, and both math and physics for engineering, so somebody who is not good at math is more likely to have trouble with physics or engineering.


Can physics be used in math?

No; it is usually the other way round: math is used in physics.


Will I have difficulty in physics and engineering if I'm good at math and economics?

You'll certainly not have difficulty in physics and engineering BECAUSE you are good at math or economics; math, especially, is important in physics.


What type of math is used by an auto mechanic?

Physics plays a major role in auto mechanics. Physics is used to determine power, speed, torque, gears, acceleration, ring and pinion.


What math do stuntmen use?

Physics. basic physics.


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.


Is it true that if you are good at math you will have difficulty with physics and engineering?

No, where do you get such weird ideas? You NEED math for physics and engineering!


Is it true that if you are good at math you will have problems with physics?

No, that's ridiculous, physics involves math - as do most sciences.


Can you learn math through physics?

No, but you can use physics to show students practical applications to the math that they are learning


Are you bad at physics if you are good at mathematics?

No. A lot of physic has to do with equations and math. Physics will be easier if you are good at math. I was for me :)


Will you fail physics and chemistry and engineering if you are good at math?

Math will help, not hinder, you in this. You actually need a LOT of math, especially for physics and engineering.
