    I finally totally understand this after 58 years !!! I did need to look up the definition of velocity and acceleration to completely understand this. When I was learning this, no internet, no UA-cam, no computers, just a single textbook and a library that more books that just drone on sayin the same thing that the teacher said. So if you didn't understand there was no new perspective or teaching methods. Thank God for Men and women like you with better teaching methods and a free medium to learn.

    It might help if you had used the units for position, velocity and acceleration in your graphs.
    Most people do not understand the difference between these three because of the improper general use of the word ‘speed’. Restating the definition of the slope, as just a reminder, might help as well.
    Also, would it not be better understood if the process was called something different than differentiation, which does not even hint as to what the process does, other than to say - ‘derived’ from.
    If the act of differentiation always finds the slope, then call it ‘sloperation’ or ‘slopearate’ or ‘sloperization’ or ‘acquisition of slope’ or ‘slope derivation’.

    • @MathAndScience
      @MathAndScience  2 роки тому +3

      Point taken on the units that’s actually a really good idea. Thank you very much appreciate it. Also I kind of like your names slopeorization and things like that I think they’re very clever in creative. However we need to use the word derivative simply because it’s all over the place in calculus and students really need to know how to use the proper terminology so that when they read textbooks and go into more advanced classes they understand the terminology.

    Good explanations! @Lloyd Welhelm, t is time, putting it in parentheses means a value is derived from the time value. IOW, if the time value is, say, 4, the function will produce a bigger value than if the time value is 2. That is to say, if you know the time, you can calculate the position.

  • @qualquan
    @qualquan 2 роки тому +1

    Calculus is all about finding the individual components called dYs of a given whole called Y and summing (integrating) the given individual components = dYs to obtain the whole =Y.
    The derivative = differential = dY = individual component of Y or WHOLE. Each component or dY is set dX apart where dX = 1/N (N being an indefinitely large number). The hypotenuse of the right triangle formed by sides dY and dX called dS, is the tangent and is an INDIVIDUAL straight line segment of the curve Y. It is NOT a point. All tangents are VECTORS (which a point cannot be)
    As alluded above Integration is the continuous sum of the dYs (components) and obtaining Y (Whole).

    Beautifully explained.
    But I had one problem.
    - Distance is a quadratic function of time, when velocity is changing uniformly, in other words Acceleration is constant. Therefore function of Distance with respect to Time will be "t square" (t 2). Understood.
    - Velocity is changing linearly with time if acceleration is constant. That's why its a straight sloping line - a linear function. The slope of this line is the acceleration. It is a constant value. There Function of Velocity with respect to Time is a linear function. A "t" with it's coefficient as the "slope" which is actually the Acceleration.
    This slope can be any value .. depending on the acceleration. Am I right?
    Why did you use the numeral 2 as the example of its slope?
    It creates a confusion, because Derivative of t 2 is indeed 2t (I have studied calculus in college) .. however if we go by looking at the slope as Acceleration is could be a 3 or a 4 (which we know is not the derivative of t square)..
    It's not clear .. (head scratching student) .. this slope theory is not holding for student / viewer.
    - However if we continue with the graph analogy we see that since Acceleration is constant .. a graph of Acceleration vs Time t being constant is a flat line parallel to t - axis with value of the 'slope' we found in the previous graph of Velocity Vs Time. In the example it was taken as 2 .. which is fine .. but it could be 3 or 4 or whatever numeral
    Just pointing out a confusion that may occur for newbies encountering Derivatives for the first time.
    Maybe I missed something! (It's been 30 years since I did any calculus at all .. I was here to look for Videos that would help my child with calculus)
