In what particular situation you will need a depth knowledge of math/physics in software engineering?
Physics is not important for software engineering and you won't be required to know any physics-based formulas or equations to land a software engineering role. The two topics are completely unrelated and knowledge in physics isn't likely to help you in software development.
Despite its name, software engineering does not require math. At least, it doesn't require as much math as you might think. There are numbers and problem-solving, but you won't have to break out your AP Calculus certificate or trigonometry textbook to program—or engineer—software.
If you look at a list of required coursework for a degree in software engineering, you'll typically see Calculus I-III, Differential Equations, Discrete Mathematics, Linear Algebra, and other advanced math classes.
Good knowledge of Mathematics is highly recommended [not mandatory]. Physics in my opinion is not that crucial to know but basic physics knowledge will surely help.
Computer science is rooted to Maths and both programming and mathematics require good analytical and problem solving skills.
