NEW YORK — Most people probably don't think of learning calculus as fun. But a new interactive exhibit here at the Museum of Math (MoMath) lets visitors learn about the principles of motion in an ...
Dive into Part 3 of our series on spherical coordinates as we demystify velocity and acceleration in three-dimensional space. This video breaks down complex concepts with clear explanations and ...
How do you integrate with a computer? Let's start with an example. Suppose a car travels only in the x-direction. It starts at x = 0 m with a velocity of 0 m/s. If the car has a constant acceleration ...
The Calculus is made up of a few basic principles that anyone can understand. If looked at in the right way, it’s easy to apply these principles to the world around you and to see how the real world ...
Calculus is the study of change. More specifically, it is a method for understanding rates of change. If you know an object’s velocity and want to calculate its acceleration, then you need calculus ...
This is probably the last of three articles on how piecewise-linear functions could be used as a helpful on-ramp to the big ideas in calculus. In the first article, we saw how it’s possible to develop ...
