What is the difference between Newton and Leibniz calculus?
The difference between Leibniz calculus to Newton calculus was that Leibniz developed Newton's calculus into the calculus we all know today. For instance, diffentiation and intergration, limits, continuity, etc. This type of calculus was the pure mathematics. On the otherhand, the calculus which Newton found was that used in physics, such as speed and velocity which helped with physics greatly. Today, calculus not only used in just mathematics or physics, but used in finance, as well as exploited in engineering.
What is thr purpose of calculus?
The purpose of calculus is to solve physics problems.
Is calculus harder than physics?
Some people find calculus easier, others find physics easier. There is no general answer.
Why do you have to take pre-calculus before calculus?
Pre-calculus covers the basics you will need for calculus, including exponents, algebraic formulas and solving equations. Calculus is where mathematics and physics intersect - you can calculate the speed and velocity from a nonlinear function describing the distance traveled at a given time.
How does calculus help us?
It is used in physics all the time. For example, acceleration is the derivative of velocity which is a derivative of position with respect to time. Calculating the amount of work done in a vector field (like an electrical field) also uses calculus.
