| Prerequisites:
Frequency: Fall/Spring Terms
Credit: (3-2)4
Content: Functions, Limits, continuity and derivatives.
Applications. Extreme values, the Mean Value Theorem and its applications.
Graphing. The definite integral. Area and volume as integrals. The indefinite
integral. Transedental functions and their derivatives. L'Hopital's rule.
Evaluating integrals by substitutions. Improper integrals. Applications.
Goals: Calculus was first discovered to meet the needs
of the scientists of the sixteenth and seventeenth centuries. Diferential
calculus deals with the problem of calculating rates of change. It enables
us to define slope of curves, to calculate velocities, accelerations of
moving bodies and to predict the times when planets would be closest together
or farthest apart. Integral calculus deals with the problem of determining
a function from information about its rate of change. It enables us to
calculate the future location of a body from its present position, to find
the areas of irregular regions in the plane, to measure the lengths of
curves, and to find the volumes and masses of arbitrary solids. The goal
of this course is to present a modern view of calculus enhanced by the
use of technology.
