Calculus always involves an infinite series and we can't calculate all of
those, but we can figure out if an infinite series converges or not and if
it does what it converges to. Do you think calculus is not "justified"?

Physics has something mathematics does not, experimentation. So the answer
to your question is simple, if it works it's justified.
