This slide discusses average velocity versus instantaneous velocity. The green (x2-x1)/(t2-t1) calculation is the average velocity across the entire part of the parabola shown. There other lines that touch in increasingly closer together points. Finally, at the limit where the two points are basically on top of each other, when the change in time between them has approached zero, we are essentially at a tangent line. This is called the derivative of the function at that point in time. To symbolize that we've gotten to the tangent line situation, where the line used in calculating slope is only touching the graph once, we change deltax/deltat to dx/dt.

An exhibit at the San Luis Unit dam somewhere in the Central Valley explicating how much water it takes to make a friggin' hamburger. Incredible. Never even thought about that, not even once. I think the world has a good chance of going down the toilet, forgive the pun.

When to use Calculus As we know, calculus is a form of mathematics which is applied on functions like graphs which are not performing its behavior in the linear or simple pattern. In old days of the science, there was not enough understanding about how the earth, stars and the planets move with respect to each other. But, after the introduction of the calculus, we start understanding this phenomenon and reason behind all this. We use the calculus, to find the attributes of the non-linear type of functions. It is totally based on the comparison between points on the graph of some non-linear functions. We broadly use the calculus in mathematics and also in engineering for velocity, non- linear motion of objects, acceleration, circuits and current in the circuit etc. The calculus is widely used in discontinuous type of graphs. To find the area bounded by the graph of any discontinuous type of function, we have to use differentiation (dy/dx).
