Parametrization as an assistent in physical problem solving

Original language description

Mathematics is a science that helps other disciplines to find answers to questions and solve problems. In the conditions of school education, pupils very often encounter using mathematics to solve physical problems. From a mathematical point of view, they are word problems. When we solve them, the already created formulas are used, similarly like for example in geometry. These formulas express dependencies between individual physical quantities. The right choice of physical formula assumes the knowledge of conditions under which the formula applies.The examples in the article show how it can be advantageous to consider physical formulas as parameter relationships. Appropriate parameters usage is a powerful tool to solve physical problems that can be addressed effectively. The parameterization of the physical tasks also hides a great didactic potential. It allows a discussion between teacher and pupils on individual cases of problem solving depending on parameter values. Thus, pupils can better understand the physical formulas and learn to use them actively. The teacher should not be content with the fact that pupils only &quot;solve&quot; the example. He should also lead them to think about the relationships between the physical quantities, about the individual steps of the solution, and try to understand them. This activity is very enriching for the pupils.
