Hello there! It is a very common misconception that physics is just about "hard math" and confusing equations. Let me put your mind at ease. Physics is simply the study of how the universe works.

Think of it like being a mechanic for the world. A mechanic studies how a car engine works so they can fix it or make it run better. A physicist studies how matter and energy interact so we can understand everything from why a mango falls from a tree to how your mobile phone sends messages through the air.

While we use calculations as a tool (like a mechanic uses a spanner), the heart of physics is about curiosity and understanding nature. Don't let the math scare you; we will tackle that together step by step!
