3. What is calculus?
 Calculus originally meant “mathematics”.
 Derived from the Latin “calx” (counter) – ancient Babylonians would
use pebbles to represent units, tens, hundreds, etc, on a primitive
abacus.
 Later, defined as measuring varying rates of change.

4. Calculus is everywhere
The differentiation and integration of calculus have many
real-world applications from sports to engineering to astronomy
and space travel.

5. Calculus in the engineering
field
 Calculus initially developed for better navigation system.
 Engineers use calculus for building skyscrapers , bridges.
 In robotics calculus is used how robotic parts will work
on given command.
 Electrical and Computer engineers use calculus for
system design.
 Calculus is used to improve safety of vehicles.

6. Calculus in Biology
 To study the interaction of different
species within an ecosystem calculus
is used.
 The concentration of drugs in a living
organism can be answered with calculus.
 Physical attributes, such as backbone length
and skull length measured by calculus.
 Calculus is used for measuring growth rate
of bacteria and certain species.

7. Calculus in Science
• Isaac Newton developed the use of calculus
in his laws of motion and gravitation.
• Astronomical science deeply depend on calculus.
• Space technology use calculus in many ways.
• Calculus is used to build tracks.

8. Calculus in Economics
• Functions and derivatives of calculus are relate
to relevant concepts in economics.
• Economic research uses calculus functional relationships,
relation of income , market prediction etc.
• Differentiation is used to find optimum solutions of economics.
• Calculus also used for max efficiency or products or to
minimize their costs.
• Credit card companies use calculus for monthly payments.

9. Calculus in other fields
• Business and politicians often conduct surveys
with the help of calculus.
• Investment plans do not pass before mathematicians
approves.
• Doctors often use calculus in the estimation of the
progression of the illness.
• Global mapping is done with the help of calculus.
• Calculus also used to solve paradoxes.
