The Knowledge Of Science Is

Incomplete In The Absence Of The

Knowledge Of Mathematics.

Science: The observation, identification, description, experimentalinvestigation, and theoretical explanation of phenomena.

Mathematics: The study of the measurement, properties, andrelationships of quantities and sets, using numbers and symbols.

 

Mathematics is the queen of science. The concepts of 

science alone can't help us proceed further to get to

know new things. The laws of science, when molded

into mathematical formulae, help us to predict new

things. Without mathematics, science is just a fairy

tale. Nothing can be predicted on the basis of 

concepts only. It's mathematics that gives the proof 

and explanation to these concepts. Thus, its

mathematics due to which this electronic age has

become possible.

 

Science and technology very much depends

on mathematics . There would not be

subject like physics, chemistry, ecology and

so on if it weren’t for mathematics. To know

how much force you need to apply on an

object you need to do it by using

mathematic formulae and even to know the

law of physics mathematics is needed . Even

to balance and create a mixture we do it

mathematically.

 

 Mathematics is the language of science as science isquantitative. Science interprets everything by measurement,sampling and experimentation to derive a generalized set of conclusion. Measurement needs numbers and mathematicsset the rules in manipulation of numbers. Simple example if apen weighs 5 grams so two pens will weigh 10 grams(addition). For example for a chemist to make mixture theyneed to calculate how much each of the compound shouldbe mixed. If they don’t calculate in an appropriate amountneeded then it might be dangerous ,like an explosion mayoccur or may while inventing something an engineer willmeasure everything and then try to fix them in an order likeif inventing a robot the technicians measure everything ,how much height should be taken for the robot and thenaccording to it they calculate everything and come to aconclusion of making the parts like and hand and other part.

 

Whatever knowledge we gather by observation orexperimentation the aim is ultimately is to produce atheory of some phenomena. Most of the theories inscience especially in physical sciences are to be put ina model.A mathematical model helps us tosummarize the whole theory into a formula or set of equations.One can now play with these equations toanswer many questions about the phenomena andalso it helps in predicting the new results and if theyare verified by experiment then the theory becomesestablished.For example the newtons theory of gravitation helped to understand the kepler's laws of planetary motion.It also helped in discovering thenew planets and of course in space programs thetrajectory of space crafts etc.

 

In each and every aspect of science ,

mathematics is a must …. 

 

In Physics

All theories are proven through mathematical

equations.

Whenever you want to calculate the magnitude or

direction of a vector or a magnitude of a scalar you

need to use math's.

 

In Chemistry

Chemistry is an exact science since it relies on quantitative modelsthat can be described and applied by using the mathematicallanguage. For instance, the theory of chemical bonding andmolecular structure, rates and equilibria of chemical reactions,molecular thermodynamics, relationships involving energy,structure and reactivity, modeling of solvation, are swarming withproblems whose solutions require sophisticated mathematicaltechniques. Mathematics also plays a central role in many areas of "applied" chemistry and chemical engineering.

Important examples include atmospheric chemistry, biochemistry,and the broad field of computer simulations. The development of faster and more accurate spectroscopic techniques, the design of molecular devices, biomolecular computers, and of new empiricalmethods to predict reliable chemical data, and the conception of more efficient chemical reactors are just a few of a vast number of other topics that have strong links to applied mathematics

 

In Biology

We use maths mostly in genetics, where you calculate the

probability of of transferring a certain characteristic-

phenotype,a probability of transferring a disease .

Mathematics can probably continue to help Biology ( by

focusing, above all, on modelling, computing power and

statistical validation. In thisway, outstanding scientific

results can be obtained, that would eventually contribute

to biological achievements.This is what happened with

what is usually considered as the most significant

biological achievement of the Century, identifying the

structure of DNA. This work was essentially done by

Physicists, Chemists and Crystallographers, using the

techniques with which they were familiar.

 

In Computer Science

The computer itself does math's all the time as it can

understand nothing but 0's and 1's.We compute

those machine language and build a logic how to on

process it step by step like solving a math's problem.

Math's is also important in programming. As u can

see programmers use codes in java, visual basic,

visual C++.Webmasters use HTML and CSS codes

while building web pages where math is also

included. For example. Dimension for a picture is

fixed by using width=60pixels x height=60 pixels.

 

In Ecology

To calculate birth rate, death rate ,vital

indexes,census,etc

 

From above points , we can conclude that

knowledge of science is incomplete without

mathematical knowledge . If we lack

mathematical knowledge we can never

understand the concepts of science properly.

So, we all should realize its importance .

 

Thanks for your attention.

I would like to thank our GP teacher for giving me this

opportunity which helped me to know more about the topic. I

would also like to thank my family who supported me .
