The model-first approach to science

Science calculators define a system, choose an equation, apply units and constants, and show the substitution. Effects outside that model remain outside the result.

Method and background

Introductory science problem solving builds from measured quantities and idealized relationships. Those models are valuable for learning and first-pass estimates, while experiments and engineering decisions need additional evidence.
