as physics student you quickly come to figure out that physical intuition is not the same as mathematical intuition. there are many hacks (for lack of a better term) in physics that a mathematician would've never been able to come up with because they're physically intuitive but not mathematically (a famous example is the Feynman path integral)
- Koshkin 9y agoRight, we know that much of mathematics grew from physics, but the question remains: what is there in the known theoretical physics that is not (applied) math? (Well, I think I may already know the answer: nothing; but it does not matter, because science is not about what is known...)
