Ok so we learn calculus in 2unit right?
I am thinkin of how I could use it in real world, like I wanna know the equation of water dripping down the faucet and calculate how long it would take to fill one bucket, rate after 10 mins etc. and to many other things lol.

btw, I think calculus is easier than geometry, series, .. lol maybe coz i didnt study in year 11.

dont you learn that in applications of calculus in the real world? its usually the last topic covered

 

[jannny]

yea we do but i was thinking like how do you find the equation of something ( e.g. equation of dripping water in a faucet) something like that

 

[jemsta]

damn it feels like ages ago since ive done hs maths
finding the equation of something....might be ext 1 only
or you could just wait till you do uni maths

I think you do it later... but you find at what rate the water drips into a cylindrical shape or how long it takes a cone to fill up with water if the water is falling at a constant rate etc etc

check in your 2 unit book.. if its not there then its a 3 unit topic
