  1. Why study Calculus ? By Sen and Sokol

  2. CALCULUS • There are only • kinds of people in the world: • Those who know calculus and those who don’t.

  3. CALCULUS • Is a branch of mathematics focused on • Limits • Functions • Derivatives • Integrals and • Infinite series

  4. CALCULUS • …Is the study • Of • How • Things • Change

  5. CALCULUS • Calculus has applications in • Science, • Economics, • And Engineering. • It can solve • Many problems • For which • Algebra alone • Is insufficient.

  6. CALCULUS • Used in • Every branch of Physics, • Computer Science, • Statistics, • Engineering, • Economics, • Business, • Medicine, • Demography, • And in other fields, • Wherever a problem • Can be mathematically modelled, • and an optimal solution can be found.

  7. Applications of Differential • And Integral calculus • In Physics Science • Include • Computations involving • Velocity • And • Acceleration, • The slope of a curve • And • Optimization.

  8. Applications of Integral calculus • Include computations • Involving • Area, • Volume, • Arc length, • Centre of mass, • Work, • And pressure.

  9. In Business • Specialists look at • The Derivatives • Of Trends • That • Can help them • Predict • The Future • Of • The Stocks and Markets.

  10. Architects • Use • Optimization • To calculate • The best amount of material • They can get within • Their Budget • And • OptimalSpace in a Building • They are designing.

  11. Calculus • can be used • To compute • The Trajectory • Of a Shuttle.

  12. …Or • The amount of Snow • In the Driveway.

  13. …It can be used to calculate • The amount of Area taken up by • An irregularly shaped • Flower Bed • Or Swimming Pool • When • Designing • The Layout • Of • A Piece Of Property.

  14. In the World of • Medicine, • Calculus can be used • To find • The Optimal Branching Angle • Of • A Blood Vessel • So as • To Maximize Flow.

  15. In Nuclear Medicine, • It is used to build • Models of Radiation Which Targets • Tumor Cells.

  16. In Economics, • Calculus allows • The Determination • Of The MaximalProfit • By providing a Way • To Easily Calculate • Both • Marginal Cost • And • Marginal Revenue.
