What do math and science have in common?
Regarding their similarities, both mathematics and science are taken as ways of understanding that are embedded in rational logic – focusing on universal knowledge statements. Both are seen by society in general as essential components of schooling, rivalled only by literacy.
Can every question be answered by science?
Science is concerned with accumulating and understanding observations of the physical world. In this sense, science really solves no problems at all. Problems are only solved when people take the knowledge (or tool, or pill, or whatever) provided by science and use it.
Is math a true science?
Mathematics is certainly a science in the broad sense of “systematic and formulated knowledge”, but most people use “science” to refer only to the natural sciences.
What questions will science never answer?
COSMOLOGY. What came before the big bang?
Can science explain all things?
Science is an instense study to try and understand the workings of the universe, it is fundamentally flawed because it cannot and will not ever explain the WHY of anything. Therefore science can never explain everything.
Is math related to science answer?
In many ways, math is closely related to science. Mathematics is such a useful tool that science could make few advances without it. However, math and standard sciences, like biology, physics, and chemistry, are distinct in at least one way: how ideas are tested and accepted based on evidence.
How is science used in math?
Science is the application of math. In science, geometric principles such as symmetry, reflection, shape, and structure reach down to the atomic levels. In science, algebraic balance is required in chemical formulas, growth ratios, and genetic matrices.
Is there a scientific answer to every question?
Any question is answerable because there is always something that can be said. Even “that question is unanswerable” is a valid scientific response if backed with valid scientific evidence.
Is there a scientific response to a question that is unanswerable?
Even “that question is unanswerable” is a valid scientific response if backed with valid scientific evidence. Even a partial answer or an uncertain one is better than nothing, and most answers are partial anyway, scientific or otherwise (there are rarely any perfect answers).
Is it useful to know that something is impossible?
To know something is impossible is useful. What makes a question scientific is if the intent for a scientific answer is inferred by the question. But a scientific answer can be given to any question, and any question can be answered scientifically.
