It can run procedure, do high class numerical calculations at any precision, do different kinds of complicated symbolic calculus, calculate scientifically, drawn up with different kinds of figures which make us grasp the function characteristics intuitively. Just for this reason, it can be used in many fields to solve complicated symbolic computations and numerical calculations. Physical problems are relatively complex, it involves much math computation, and they are generally worked out by hands which would be time-consuming and produce many errors for complex electromagnetism, mechanics and other physics problems. What’s more, we can not get the intuitive physical picture from the results, or only obtain some simple graphical diagrams. These shortcomings are obvious. We can use Mathematica software in Physics to do calculations, draw figures, do simulations, by which we can also solve many kinds of physical problems that we meet in daily life and further understood the physical laws therein.Keywords Software Mathematica; Data Processing; Plotting; Physi
