Why Do We Study Calculus

...Seminar-1 Article Analysis: Why do we study Calculus? Name: Salman 1. * This article is very interesting, I came to know about a lot of great contributors to our life like Newton, Pluto, Aristotle, and Leibnitz and their famous work .In a summary of this article would say that I came to know how different field of science and economy benefit from the calculus. Economics, physics, Astronomy and General Science all these field of study have huge impact of Calculus; they need help of Calculus in one way or the other way. * Primary Topics: Kepler’s laws: 1. The orbits of the planets are ellipses, with the sun at one focus point 2. The velocity of a planet varies in such a way that the area covered out by the line between planet and sun is increasing at a constant rate 3. The square of the orbital period of a planet is proportional to the cube of the planet's average distance from the sun. (Reference: Article: Why do we study Calculus?) * Numbers are uncountable and we can measure the change of them with respect to time 2. I found these topics covered from the material of the first seminar, they were the applications of the material topics. * Change in one variable in respect to the other variable * Rates of change * Limits * Graphs and distance of one point from the another point I found that the knowledge of these points was applied for the calculations of the things discussed in this article like velocity of an object, planets...

...Finding the Equation of a Tangent Line Using the First Derivative Certain problems in Calculus I call for using the first derivative to find the equation of the tangent line to a curve at a specific point. The following diagram illustrates these problems. There are certain things you must remember from College Algebra (or similar classes) when solving for the equation of a tangent line. Recall : • A Tangent Line is a line which locally touches a curve at one and only one point. • The slope-intercept formula for a line is y = mx + b, where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept. • The point-slope formula for a line is y – y1 = m (x – x1). This formula uses a point on the line, denoted by (x1, y1), and the slope of the line, denoted by m, to calculate the slope-intercept formula for the line. Also, there is some information from Calculus you must use: Recall: • The first derivative is an equation for the slope of a tangent line to a curve at an indicated point. • The first derivative may be found using: A) The definition of a derivative : lim h →0 f (x + h ) − f ( x ) h B) Methods already known to you for derivation, such as: • Power Rule • Product Rule • Quotient Rule • Chain Rule (For a complete list and description of these rules see your text) With these formulas and definitions in mind you can find the equation of a tangent line. Consider the following problem: Find the equation of the line tangent to f ( x...

Differentiation Rules (Differential Calculus)

...Differentiation Rules (Differential Calculus) 1. Notation The derivative of a function f with respect to one independent variable (usually x or t) is a function that will be denoted by D f . Note that f (x) and (D f )(x) are the values of these functions at x. 2. Alternate Notations for (D f )(x) f (x) d For functions f in one variable, x, alternate notations are: Dx f (x), dx f (x), d dx , d f (x), f (x), f (1) (x). The dx “(x)” part might be dropped although technically this changes the meaning: f is the name of a function, dy whereas f (x) is the value of it at x. If y = f (x), then Dx y, dx , y , etc. can be used. If the variable t represents time then Dt f can be written f˙. The differential, “d f ”, and the change in f , “∆ f ”, are related to the derivative but have special meanings and are never used to indicate ordinary differentiation. dy Historical note: Newton used y, while Leibniz used dx . About a century later Lagrange introduced y and ˙ Arbogast introduced the operator notation D. 3. Domains The domain of D f is always a subset of the domain of f . The conventional domain of f , if f (x) is given by an algebraic expression, is all values of x for which the expression is defined and results in a real number. If f has the conventional domain, then D f usually, but not always, has conventional domain. Exceptions are noted below. 4. Operating Principle Many functions are formed by successively combining simple functions, using constructions such as sum...
