I am a theoretical physicist. Is Visual C the right platform for

accurate physics simulation or dos. Can we use them both for a

single application.

Visual C++ is a good platform for almost everything. You can create projects for both DOS and Windows enviroment.

If you code all of the physics simulation stuff first in portable c++, it should be no problem adding the graphics layer for whatever platform you choose. If your simulation requires three dimensional modeling, programming with the VisualC++ IDE for the Windows platform would be very straightforward, and you could take advantage of the native hardware acceleration support of Direct3D or OpenGL so as not to overly slow the modelling.
