This course explores how physicists developed quantitative reasoning to deepen the understanding of natural phenomena and to escape from scientific absurdity. It focuses on Newtonian Mechanics in three dimensional Euclidean space. The course also covers quantitative approaches begining with elementary algebraic methods to reach differential Calculus invented by physicists, Newton, and Leibniz independently. Finally, the course investigates the Lagrangian and Hamiltonian versions of classical mechanics that are equivalent to the Newtonian version.
