No, physics is just applied pure mathematics?

>>7696948
No, it makes several additional hypothesis such as the causality principle.

why is eric raymond in this picture?

physics is applied arithmetic

physics is the desire by the rationalist to make math relevant, that is to say to connect math to empirical data.

"Pure applied mathematics." My mind cannot wrap around what you think you are saying. But I'm pretty sure it's stupid.

Physics is one part empiricism to nine parts mathematics.

Physics is an attempt to make sense of our socially constructed reality and is itself a social construct. There are no facts, only opinions and intersubjective agreements among people who socially construct reality in similar but subtly different ways. Other people socially construct reality in radically different ways. Christians believe in a God and so they have the physics of God which is also known as metaphysics. Mathematics

No there are no others, there is only me the unique one, the creative nothing.

Computer Science is applied mathematics.

fucking hell goddamn

You will find a lot more pure maths in certain areas of theoretical physics than you will find applied maths. String theory makes a lot of use of algebraic geometry for example, and there are a lot of topological ideas in quantum field theory. These methods have led to new ideas and theorems in pure maths, and in other areas of physics (the LHC couldn't have detected the Higgs boson without techniques developed in string theory).
You do need more than just maths to do physics though - there are plenty of mathematical theories & results that have no physical meaning.

No. You apply maths in physics to real-world problems, but it is not applied math.

Because
a) you do more than just mathematics (physical reasoning
b) there are other fields that apply math

Making something so confusing, even for yourself, does not make it smart and/or relevant. This is stupid and so are you.

>>7698147
if all of you faggots are so smart how do you fall for bait this obvious? shaking my head, to be honest family

>>7696948
No. Physics, mathematics, and philosophy are just a triangle of applications on each other. All fields of study are applications of the triangle, and everything is an application of religion.
