Differentiation Final Shubham

Differentiation is a fundamental concept in calculus that measures how a quantity changes, represented by the derivative. It provides the slope of a function at any point and has various rules for calculation, including the power rule and product rule. Applications of differentiation span across fields like physics, economics, engineering, and computer science.

What is Differentiation?

• • Differentiation is a part of Calculus.


• • It is used to find the rate at which a quantity
changes.
• • Example: Rate of change of distance =
Speed.
• • It helps find the slope or gradient of a
function at any point.
Derivative - Basic Idea

• • Derivative shows how a function is changing


at a point.
• • Formula:
• f'(x) = lim(h→0) [f(x+h) - f(x)] / h
• • This is called the first principle of
differentiation.
Geometrical Meaning

• • Differentiation gives the slope of the tangent


to a curve at a point.
• • Slope = Rate of Change = Derivative.
• • Straight line: constant slope.
• • Curves: changing slope.
Differentiation - Visual Explanation
• Diagram showing Basic Concepts and
Applications.
Basic Rules of Differentiation

• • Constant Rule: d/dx(c) = 0


• • Power Rule: d/dx(x^n) = n*x^(n-1)
• • Constant Multiple Rule: d/dx(a*f(x)) = a*f'(x)
• • Sum/Difference Rule: d/dx(f±g) = f'±g'
Advanced Rules

• • Product Rule: (uv)' = u'v + uv'


• • Quotient Rule: (u/v)' = (v*u' - u*v') / v^2
• • Chain Rule: d/dx[f(g(x))] = f'(g(x)) * g'(x)
Examples

• 1. f(x) = x³ ➔ f'(x) = 3x²


• 2. f(x) = 5x⁴ - 2x² ➔ f'(x) = 20x³ - 4x
• 3. f(x) = sin(x) ➔ f'(x) = cos(x)
• 4. f(x) = e^x ➔ f'(x) = e^x
Applications of Differentiation

• • Physics: Speed, acceleration, force


• • Economics: Marginal cost, revenue
• • Engineering: Signal processing, optimization
• • Computer Science: Machine learning
(gradients)
Real Life Example

• • Car travels distance s = 5t²


• • Speed = ds/dt = 10t
• • Shows how speed increases over time.
Conclusion

• • Differentiation helps understand change and


motion.
• • Useful in physics, economics, engineering,
and computer science.
• • A key tool for problem solving.
