    Precalculus on Khan Academy: You may think that precalculus is simply the course you take before calculus. You would be right, of course, but that definition doesn't mean anything unless you have some knowledge of what calculus is. Let's keep it simple, shall we? Calculus is a conceptual framework which provides systematic techniques for solving problems. These problems are appropriately applicable to analytic geometry and algebra. Therefore....precalculus gives you the background for the mathematical concepts, problems, issues and techniques that appear in calculus, including trigonometry, functions, complex numbers, vectors, matrices, and others. There you have it ladies and gentlemen....an introduction to precalculus!
    About Khan Academy: Khan Academy offers practice exercises, instructional videos, and a personalized learning dashboard that empower learners to study at their own pace in and outside of the classroom. We tackle math, science, computer programming, history, art history, economics, and more. Our math missions guide learners from kindergarten to calculus using state-of-the-art, adaptive technology that identifies strengths and learning gaps. We've also partnered with institutions like NASA, The Museum of Modern Art, The California Academy of Sciences, and MIT to offer specialized content.

  • @ubong-abasiakpan1771
    @ubong-abasiakpan1771 Год назад

    Y is acceleration due to gravity negative (-10m/s²)
    Based on equations of motion, for any body moving downwards (g) is positive, and if it's projected upwards it's magnitude becomes negative cause it's acting in an opposite direction to (g)
    So sir explain why 10m/s² is negative
    Cause am confused at that point 😕

    @restituted
    Because, he set the equation equal to zero(the y axis being the height(when would the car be at zero height, or hit the ground)), and the equation was then 0 = 50 - 5t^2. So, he had to figure out what t would have to be for 50 - 5t^2 to equal 0. If t = the square root of 10, then the square root of 10 squared = 10. 50-5(10) = 0. So at the square root of 10 seconds, the car hits the ground.

    The mass would be used in calculating the force on the car (or the ground), or some other information. If the car had no mass, gravity would not affect its motion. In a vacuum, all masses would behave in exactly the same way, so the equation covers objects of any mass.

    @ForeverWiked acceleration : ax=0, ay= -g (gravitational acceleration on earth)
    You integrate the acceleration to get the velocity -> velocity : vx= 5, vy = -gt (don't forget the initial conditions, here the velocity at t=0)
    Then you inegrate the whole thing again to get the position -> position : x=5t+10, y= -gt²/2 + 50 with g~10m/s²
    Again, initial conditions. Position at t=0.

    *I'm just learning this and so far I've really only seen the conventional f(x)= x + a (or trig/rational functions etc.) basically where y or f(x) is on one side and the equation is on the other and that suffices to describe the function. But I've never seen two equations describe a single function and i want to know why this is suddenly happening (i get that the two equations show where the object with respect to time) it's just a function has never been described with two equations for me and i feel like I'm missing something here why is this extra description needed (I know it's a weird question)
    *Also what is a parameter exactly, is it the same thing as a variable, like for an equation F(x)=cos2x is x the parameter?????
    *Finally, under what conditions/or what type of function do we need something like this where we need a pair of equations to describe the function?
    I haven't gotten my textbook yet and all I have to go off of are my notes so i would really appreciate the help THANKS AGAIN!

    • @liamkvist692
      @liamkvist692 8 лет назад

      +Vedant Kulkarni This is because of some "simple" physical properties expressed in so-called "suvat" equations.
      This is basically mechanics in physics if you have ever done that, if not, I'll try to be brief: acceleration is defined as the change of velocity, so a =(v-u)/t v is final velocity and u is the initial velocity. We can use this equation to arrive at some other equations, as long as acceleration is constant, and in the video it is (gravitational acceleration). Average velocity is defined as displacement (s) divided by time (t), but is also defined as (u+v)/2. From these equations we know that s/t = (u+v)/2, and from here, it is just a matter of rearranging: the first equation: a = (v-u)/t can be rearranged to isolate for v: v = at + u.
      Substituting this into s/t = (u+v)/2 for v gives us s/t = (u+(at+u))/2 which, isolating for s (displacement or our "y"): s = ut +0.5at^2. The gravitational acceleration is pulling downwards and is also denoted the value 10, so s = ut - 5t^2, where we know that initial velocity is 5 ms^-1. It is very important to remember that our x axis accounts for time and that Hall denoted this starting point before the car began falling from the cliff t = 10, this means that y =50 - 5t^2.
      I hope this helps.
