Lmao you people saying you need math to understand science are

your imagination is less precise than math, so basically your imagination is like a really shitty physicist

I suppose it's true you could visualize physical phenomena without math. But in many cases you'd need to understand the math to understand why those phenomena are the way they are.

Why merely visualize physical phenomenon when you could create computational physics simulations using the magic of mathematics? Food for thought.

But that's because you are high. When I get high I feel like I'm on the verge of discovering the answer to like everything.

>bumping a b8 thread
It just wasn't very good b8, don't embarrass yourself.

I used to think like that.
Then I took a physics course. Now I can't unsee what I've seen, and I wouldn't want to if I could

Protip: next time instead of bumping, just leave an obnoxious reply to one of the comments and people will be much more inclined to jump in

The troll sucks but the question at the core is interesting. Maths is the language to precisely describe the things you claim you can visualise, not only needed for precision itself but also in order to prove things. Not only that, it extends to the abstract things you cannot possibly imagine.

Assuming the OP's words for a moment, why dont you explain a high dimensional module using your intuition?

>And yeah, I can visualize time and space like a trampoline, you fucking retard.

Huehue highschool physics babby

Basically it's impossible to model something in our universe accurately without math. Otherwise it descends into philosophy and pure conjecture.

Philosophers struggled with very basic concepts like motion (Zeno), gravity (Aristotle), infinity, etc. for a very long time. It was only when someone put them into rigorous math terms that people finally "got it."

Not to mention all the weird counterintuitive stuff that comes out from the math that you never would have come up with on your own -- incompleteness theorems, Banach-Tarski, independence results etc.
