2. Rigorous difference: The theoretical structure of physics makes full use of mathematics as the working language and takes experiments as the only criterion to test the correctness of the theory. It is the most accurate natural science discipline today. Mathematics is not as accurate as physics in this respect, but is described by rigor.
3. Different origins: Mathematics originated from early human production activities. The ancient Babylonians had accumulated certain mathematical knowledge since ancient times and were able to apply practical problems. Physics originated from the development of human social practice.

A brief history of mathematics:
A brief history of western mathematics
The evolution of mathematics can be regarded as the continuous development of abstraction and the extension of subject matter. Eastern and western cultures have also adopted different angles. European civilization developed geometry, and China developed arithmetic.
The first abstract concept is probably number (China's arithmetic), and his knowledge that two apples and two oranges have something in common is a great breakthrough in human thought. Besides knowing how to calculate the number of actual objects, prehistoric humans also knew how to calculate the number of abstract concepts, such as time-date, season and year. Arithmetic (addition, subtraction, multiplication and division) also came into being naturally.
A Brief History of Mathematics in China
Mathematics, called arithmetic in ancient times, is an important subject in ancient Chinese science. According to the characteristics of the development of ancient mathematics in China, it can be divided into five periods: the germination period; The formation of the system; Development; Prosperity and the integration of Chinese and western mathematics.
A brief history of physics:
Galileo galilei (1564~ 1642), the founder of modern human physics, laid the foundation for the scientific development of modern human physics.
Nowadays, the relationship between physics and science and technology coexist, cross and promote each other. Without yesterday's basic science, there would be no technological revolution today.
