Part 5-6: Applications and Advanced Concepts

This section delves into practical applications of calculus in particle motion and definite integrals.

Definition: Position s(t) represents the location of a particle at time t, while velocity v(t) is the rate of change of position.

Highlight: The relationship between position, velocity, and acceleration forms the foundation of particle motion analysis.

Example: A particle is speeding up when velocity and acceleration have the same sign, and slowing down when they have opposite signs.

The section covers advanced integration techniques including:

  • Disk and washer methods for volume calculation
  • Cross-sectional area problems
  • Rate and slope calculations
  • Existence theorems and their applications

Vocabulary: The Mean Value Theorem (MVT) guarantees that a continuous and differentiable function must have at least one point where its instantaneous rate of change equals its average rate of change.

Part 1-4: Fundamental Rules and Concepts

This section covers the essential rules of differentiation, integration, trigonometric identities, and continuity concepts in calculus.

Definition: A derivative represents the rate of change or slope of a function at any given point.

Highlight: Critical points occur when either f'(c)=0 or f'(c) doesn't exist, crucial for finding maxima and minima.

Example: The power rule states that the derivative of x^n is nx^(n-1).

Vocabulary: Concavity refers to the way a curve bends, with concave up indicating a "smile" shape and concave down indicating a "frown" shape.

The section thoroughly covers derivative rules, including:

  • Basic rules for constants and powers
  • Product and quotient rules
  • Chain rule applications
  • Trigonometric function derivatives
  • Exponential and logarithmic derivatives

Quote: "If f'(x)>0 for all x in an interval I then f(x) is increasing on the interval I."
