Acceleration (a) is the change in velocity (Δv) over the change in time (Δt), represented by the equation a = Δv/Δt. This allows you to measure how fast velocity changes in meters per second squared (m/s^2). Acceleration is also a vector quantity, so it includes both magnitude and direction. Created by Sal Khan.

Calculus is the mathematics of CHANGE and almost everything in our world is changing. In this course, you will investigate limits and how they are used to calculate rate of change at a point, define the continuity of a function and how they are used to define derivatives. Definite and indefinite integrals and their applications are covered, including improper integrals. Late in the course, you will find Calculus with parametric equations and polar coordinates, sequences and series, and vectors.

This course is an introduction to the calculus of functions of several variables. It begins with studying the basic objects of multidimensional geometry: vectors and vector operations, lines, planes, cylinders, quadric surfaces, and various coordinate systems. It continues with the elementary differential geometry of vector functions and space curves. After this, it extends the basic tools of differential calculus - limits, continuity, derivatives, linearization, and optimization - to multidimensional problems. The course will conclude with a study of integration in higher dimensions, culminating in a multidimensional version of the substitution rule.

Calculus is designed for the typical two- or three-semester general calculus course, incorporating innovative features to enhance student learning. The book guides students through the core concepts of calculus and helps them understand how those concepts apply to their lives and the world around them. Due to the comprehensive nature of the material, we are offering the book in three volumes for flexibility and efficiency. Volume 3 covers parametric equations and polar coordinates, vectors, functions of several variables, multiple integration, and second-order differential equations.

Conçu pour un cours de première année universitaire, ce manuel en algèbre linéaire adopte une approche peu commune : il présente les espaces vectoriels dès le début et traite des systèmes linéaires qu’après une introduction approfondie aux espaces vectoriels. Cette approche est fondée sur l’expérience des auteurs ayant observé au cours des 25 dernières années que les étudiantes et étudiants ont souvent besoin davantage de temps pour maîtriser les espaces vectoriels alors que les manuels traditionnels relèguent plutôt le sujet à la fin du cours. De cette façon, ces nouvelles notions au coeur de l’algèbre linéaire qui sont souvent considérées comme abstraites et difficiles dans un cours d’introduction peuvent ensuite être utilisées dans le reste du cours ainsi que différents contextes.
