Sorry folks , having studied physics at 200 and 300 level at uni , it is obvious that the science is very heavily mathematically involved.
Unlike some other sciences (chemistry, geology) which while having some cross over with physics and mathematics are also big memory jobs , I remember studying 200 and 300 level chemistry and having to memorize special reactions and structures ....
If you can't understand the maths, you wont understand the physics simple as that , and no it's not the mathematicians are too anal or off in la la land.
Being hard to come to grips with and understand is not a bad thing.
If it was an easy science to study and learn , then everyone would do it.
