It stops at physics. Mathematics are just the language we use to describe physics.

physics is the language that we use to describe the effects of the laws of mathematics on the universe. Mathematics completely encompasses physics. Physics does not do the same to mathematics.

Nope. Physics is what is actually happening. Physics is the gravity. Mathematics is the formula. The word "ball" doesn't suddenly become a ball and the actual ball doesn't stop being a ball. The word in this case is mathematics and the ball is physics.

Mathematics is the basis on which all things exist in the universe. Physics is not what is happening. Mathematics is the paper upon which the universe is written. Physics is the story written upon it and everything else the visualization of that story in the mind of the reader

Physics is the story and mathematics is the language it's told in. Humans invented math as a way to understand the world around us. It started as a way to make sure people paid their debts, but when "zero" was invented all hell broke loose. I'm done here.

Physics and mathematics are both machinations of the human brain in an attempt to rationalize the input of their senses. The difference between them is the fact that mathematics is not just the backbone but also the entire rest of the skeletal system as well as the entire rest of the body of physics.
