However scientists feel that it can be used to extract, by quantification the underlying essence of a physical environment and thereby eliminate any dependence on real world objects with which it might originally have been connected. Many of … Read more
There are three fundamental ways science uses mathematics and observations to understand the reality of our world. The first involves developing a mathematical description by directly observing how its components interact. For example, Isaac Newton developed his law of gravity by observing the movement of planets and realizing that they could be understood by assuming … Read more
