He whakataki tēnei pepa i te tūāpapa o te mātai ahupūngao mō te hunga tauira kīhai i ako i te mātai ahopūngao, pāngarau rānei ki te kura tuarua. He tautoko hoki i te tauira e aru ana i tētahi kaupapa pūtaiao matua. Ko te whāinga matua he whakamārama i ngā huatau ahupūngao o ia rā me te tika o ngā rerenga kupu. Ko etahi kaupapa he mea tō mai i te ahupūngao o ia rā, inā rā ko ngā ture o Newton, e pā ana ki te neke, te hiko me te autō; ko te hanga o te mātu me te āo tukupū, tae atu ana ki te huinga ngaru me te pōkākā.
