This week in AP-Calc, we learned about integrals as net change and finding area under two curves using integrals. This was the beginning of chapter 7, and like every chapter, there was a lot of new concepts to learn about. Integrating net change was not that hard since we already know about acceleration, velocity, and position. This was one of the first times we actually went into depth about acceleration, velocity, and position. I am glad we are going into depth on these topics since acceleration is an important topic for us to learn about since we all use acceleration to get to school. We also learned about areas between curves and how to find the area using integrals. To find the area between the curves, you subtract the integral of the bottom curve from the integral of the top curve. This was not a difficult topic to learn since we knew everything leading up to it. It uses integral rules that we learned in previous chapters. This is a nice start to a chapter since it is not too difficult and is a nice way to ease into the chapter.
