Question
how do yo use physics in aeronautical engineering and what education do you need.

Answer
Angel
Most engineering technical areas such as kinematics, dynamics, fluid mechanics, strength of materials, aerodynamics, etc. are actually branches of physics and rely heavily on the work of Newton, Euler, Bernoulli, Maxwell, and many many others who were pioneer scientists and mathematicians.  For education you need to study as much math and science as possible, notably Newtonian physics.  Nuclear physics is good to know but not quite as important except for nuclear engineers.
