Mathematics, the Language of Physics Chapter 1 Part 3

Mathematics is the language of Physics Equations are statements about relationships between measureable quantities Graphs are an important tool for analyzing and presenting data Allowing us to relationships that could be expressed with an equation. Knowing mathematical symbols, constants, variables and measure abbreviations.

Useful mathematical tools Dimensional Analysis can catch “the wrong equation” After canceling units you should get the right units (Copy Example) Order of magnitude estimation can help catch errors Example: 725 km ∕ 8.8 hours should be about… 10³/101 = 10² or 100
