Note: Typically, a quack will use no math whatsoever (just words), or only the most primitive math possible. They seem to know arithmetic (but not units), so any numbers (if indeed they use any numbers at all) are limited to constants. They don't really comprehend algebra, so even E=mc? is usually beyond them. Thus, if you try to explain to a quack the actual physics at even high school level, he will immediately claim that you are the one who is ignorant.
