    AP C is a must take for engineering students. It is very nice to watch this derive for kinematics and then re-fresh derive the formula for uniform acceleration motion using function graph method. With the two methods, it provide a deep understanding of calculus.

    Actually 'a' is a constant so just focus on the 't'. When you take the integral of t dt, you get t^2/2. Then multiply this value by a and you get at^2/2.

    At 5:03 I understand how the anti-deravite of at = (1/2at)^2. Why isn't it the same for the Vi?
    Is it just because it's t isn't t^2 or does it have somethins to do with the constant that I don't know about?

    • @carultch
      @carultch 2 года назад

      It comes from the power rule for polynomial term calculus.
      When you take derivatives, the original power compounds with the original coefficient, and the power is reduced by one.
      d/dx k*x^n = k*n*x^(n-1)
      n is zero for constants, which means the term disappears when differentiated.
      n is one, for terms directly proportional to x
      When you take integrals, you do exactly the opposite. The power increases by 1, and you divide the coefficient by the new power.
      integral k*x^n dx = k/(n+1) * x^(n+1) + C
      n is zero for constants, which means the term simply multiplies by x
      n is one, for terms directly proportional to x, which means the power increases to squaring, and you accumulate a 1/2 term to compound with the coefficient.
      You notice this rule always works for derivatives, but for integrals, we run in to a problem when n=-1, because we get a divide by zero error. Calculus has the solution, and that is that the integral of x^(-1) is ln(abs(x)) + C.

    • @TheGoldenriff
      @TheGoldenriff 8 лет назад +1

      a/2t^2 is a messy way of saying 1/2(at)^2, you can take the anti derivative of the term (at) and you would end up with 1/2(at)^2, you can check your logic by taking the derivative of 1/2(at)^2, and 2(1/2)(at) = (at). Hope that helps.

    • @samarthasr
      @samarthasr 7 лет назад

      But then the derivative of 1/2 is 0, and 0 times anything is 0, hence 1/2(at)^2 is 0, but that's not the case?
      :-(

    • @asdflkj2041
      @asdflkj2041 7 лет назад

      samartha s.r No you can't do that. You have to use the constant rule of derivatives. (1/2)(a) is a constant. You set that aside. Now take the derivative of t^2. It is 2t. Now you can bring back the constant. Hence, derivative of (1/2)(a)(t^2) is (1/2)(a)(2t). Cross out the "2"s on the top and bottom and you get (at).

      you are going to find:

      so integral of "a" times tdt is:
      a/2*t^2

  • @HDitzzDH
    @HDitzzDH 4 года назад +1

    7:13 Isn't that just the chain rule? Velocity "v" is a function of displacement "x" which itself is a function of time "t". So we get than v(x(t)), the derivative of this with respect to t would then be: d/dt[ v(x(t)) ] = v'(x(t))*x'(t) or (dv/dx) * (dx/dt) :)

    • @carultch
      @carultch 2 года назад

      The bounds of integration on time, could really be either time initial and time final, or zero and t. Since it is arbitrary where we define time = 0, you might as well define it to start at t=0. The times when you would have the distinction, is if you have multiple intervals, each with a different acceleration.

    • @bythetimeyoufinishedreadin9083
      @bythetimeyoufinishedreadin9083 8 лет назад +2

      If you're not familiar with derivative, all that's really saying is that the acceleration=change in velocity/change in time.
      Basically, if a car starts off going 10 m/s then it goes up till 15 m/s in 5 sec, then...
      Acceleration=change in velocity/change in time
      a=(15-10)m/s /5-0s
      =5/5
      =1 m/s^2
      Meaning, the "m/s^2" means the car was going 1 meter FASTER every second. So its the velocity (m/s) after each second. So m/s^2.
      So, that's the average velocity of the car.
      But what the derivative means is that....
      Acceleration=change in velocity/change in time as the change in time approaches 0. So you're finding the infinitesimally small change in velocity in an infinitesimally small change in time.
      The reason why this " infinitesimally small change" part is useful is because we can derive and do other things with the equation. Such as, taking its integral.

    @jimmyalderson1639 7 лет назад

    Why do you rearrange the acceleration and ve,ocity equations so you have vi and vf, but when you derive the distance equations you just combine them into (delta)x?
    Why did Newton decide he wanted two velocity veriables but that he didn't want two distance veriables?

      @lasseviren1  2 года назад +1

      Glad you find the viideos helpful. "a" is the integrand, "dt" is called the differential. To solve the integral you take the antiderviative of the integrand and the differential tells you what the variable is, namely t (in this case.) So the (integral) 5 dt = 5t but the (integral) 5 dx = 5x.
