Is physics harder or math?

Most answers on this page give for granted that you are comparing mathematics with *theoretical* physics and try to demonstrate that physics can be somehow studied as a consequence of mathematics.\nAs a physicist myself, I can agree that theoretical physics is not that hard when you already master mathematics. On the other hand, we should not forget that there is much more, in physics, when you go from the blackboard to the laboratory. Just remember that many great physicists where experimental physicists: Tycho Brahe, Galileo Galilei, Michael Faraday, Marie Curie, Enrico Fermi, to tell only a few names.\nThe ability of those people in inventing and conducting experiments has nothing to do with mathematics, it's a completely different dimension of thinking, that joins the necessary deep understanding of the physical laws to a kind of practical intuition and management skills that is not usually common in mathematicians.

i dislike science too ... it is soo hard... esp.physics and chemistry..biology is fine.. i love math !! its soo fun esp. geometry !

Statistics is not any harder than algebra.  It requires a little different sort of thinking, but once you get the hang of it, it's easy.  Go for it!  You'll do fine.

I don't know about "easy", but she sure does get around. ;)\n\nIt's all relative.  Math comes more easily to some people than others.

Yes, physics is interesting and it is the study of how nature works. Keep trying and thinking about things. Develop your logic and things will be easier to understand.

Hi Mark, I will answer your question if you answer mine first.\nWhy are you asking this question, it seems like a lot of people in school are trying to take the easy way out of a physics or math problem.\nWill answer if you are not doing said above!\nCheers, Susie

well it depends.Chemistry is easy as long as you can grasp ideas fast and it is easy for you to understand how to mix things in the correct proportions and memorize formulas.Both sciences require an aptitude for math as in chem you need to work out formulae,etc. but in physics all you need is a bit of common sense and a high aptitude for math and a clean neat focused mind.A bit of observative skills wouldnt hurt,too.

chemistry i can..but physics..means..i have to think.

All subjects are complicated, if you attain a high level. You will want to know math and a good memory make it easier. Also, if you can cook, you can also do lab experiments because they are both just following a written procedure to try to make something specific. I personally liked physics and biology more, but that's just me.

Have you tried asking this question under the heading Science & Mathematics > Physics? You might have a better audience there.

I would have to say physics, especially for a theoreticist.. If you ask me, physics has a purity to it that is not present in anything called engineering...

What else... Physics!\n\nSince your question is very comman, the commanest answer would be "Physics".\n\nIn case you have any particular concept in mind state it clearly in your question then the model with respect mathematics can be given sooooooon.

i disagree that physics is a philosophy\nphilosophy and science, although similar in some respects, are different\n\nthe more advanced you go in physics, the more fun it will become\nin my class, we started with vectors, then linear motion/force/energy/momentum, rotational motion/forces/energy/momentum, thermodynamics, electromagnetism\n\nits really fun when youre doing calculus-based physics\nim sure youll love it\nvisit your bookstore and look around in the science and math sections for some sweet books\nmy dad got me the Richard Feynman Caltech lecture series (3 volumes, freshman physics)\nFeynman is, after all, a genius and his lectures are almost as interesting as his hilarious memoirs

It really does depend on the person.  Math deals more with numbers, while biology deals more with the study of life and anatomy.  In my case, I like both equally.  In general, though, especially as you get into the higher levels of math, I think people start to like biology more because they can't visualize and solve math problems.

I got 85% in physics last term.I am pretty good at the subject.I will try my best to help you if only you can frame the question.

That of course depends on the person. For me it was the intellectual challege, and knowing that I can have a true impact on people, and families. \n\nIn terms of the schooling, you have to love science and people, bottom line. I would not say that the material is difficult as compared to propulsion physics, but it is the volume of material that they throw at you that is difficult.\n\nSome others here mentioned, shadowing a physician. That is a great idea, and ask lots of questions. Plus, there are lots of great resources on the web.
