AU - العرفج، ماهر محمد AB - The impact of qualitative images in physics on quantitative manipulations: Applications on fundamental Physics' concepts in Mechanics The study pinpoints the importance of studying Physics' misconceptions and their influence on quantitative manipulations. For this reason, the study focused on nine mechanical concepts that may be interrupted by improper understanding. To achieve this goal, the researcher constructed a quantitative and qualitative inventory tests to depict mechanical misconceptions, and determine the relationship between qualitative and quantitative performances In response to that, the study shows the following findings: First: Students possess improper understanding with regard to fundamental mechanical subjects. Second: There are no statistical significant differences in the performance of 11th grade female and male students on the scale of qualitative inventory test. Third: There are no statistical significant differences in the performance of freshmen female and male students on the scale of qualitative inventory test. Fourth: There is a statistical significant relationship between the quantitative and qualitative performances of female students.
