Let's review a little bit of what we
learned in differential calculus. Let's say we have some function S that it
gives us as a function of time the position of a
particle in one dimension. If we were to take the derivative with
respect to time. So if we were to take the derivative with
respect to time of this function S. What are we going to get? Well we're going to get ds, dt or the rate in which position changes with
respect to time. And what's another word for that, position
changes with respect to time? Well, that's just velocity. So that we can write as velocity as a
function of time. Now, what if we were to take the
derivative of that with respect to time. So we could either view this as the second
derivative, we're taking the derivative not once, but twice
of our position function. Or you could say that we're taking the derivative with respect to time of our
velocity function. Well this is going to be, we can write
this as, we can write this as dv, dt, the rate at which velocity
is changing with respect to time. And what's another word for that? Well, that's also called acceleration. This is going to be our acceleration as a
function of time. So, you start with the position function,
take it, the position as a function of time. Take its derivative with respected time,
you get velocity. Take that derivative with respected time,
you get acceleration. Well, you could go the other way around. If you started with acceleration, if you
started with acceleration, and you were to take
the antiderivative. If you were to take the antiderivative of
it, the anti, anti, an antiderivative of it is going to be, actually let me just
write it this way. So an antiderivative, I'll just use the
interval symbol to show that I'm taking the
antiderivative. Is going to be the integral of the
anti-derivative of a of t. And this is going to give you some
expression with a plus c. And we could say, well, that's a general
form of our velocity function. This is going to be equal to our velocity
function. And to find the particular velocity
function, we would have to know what the velocity is at a
particular time. And then, we could solve for our c. Whether then, if we're able to do that and
we were to take the anti-derivative again. Then, now we're taking the anti-derivative
of our velocity function, which would give us some expression as a
function of t. And then, some other constant. And, if we could solve for that constant,
then we know, then we know what the position is going to be, the
position is a function of time. Just like this, it would have some, plus c
here if we know our position at a given time we could
solve for that c. So now that we've reviewed it a little
bit, but we've rewritten it in. I guess you could say, thinking of it not
just from the differential point of view from the
derivative point of view. But thinking of it from the
anti-derivative point of view. Lets see if we can solve an interesting
problem. Lets say that we know that the
acceleration of a particle is a function of time is equal to
one. So it's always accelerating at one unit
per, and you know, I'm not giving you time. Let, let's just say that we're thinking in
terms of meters and seconds. So this is one meter per second, one meter
per second-squared, right over here. That's our acceleration as a function of
time. And, let's say we don't know the velocity
expressions, but we know the velocity at a particular time and we
don't know the position expressions. But we know the position at a particular
time. So, let's say we know that the velocity,
at time three. Let's say three seconds is negative three
meters per second. And actually I wanna write the units here,
just to make it a little, a little bit. So this is meters per second squared, that's going to be our unit for
acceleration. This is our unit for velocity. And let's say that we know, let's say that
we know that the position at time two, at two seconds is equal to
negative ten meters. So, if we're thinking in one dimension, of
if this is moving along the number line, this is ten to the
left of the origin. So, given this information right over
here, and everything that I wrote up here. Can we figure out the actual expressions
for velocity as a function of time? So not just velocity at time three, but
velocity generally as a function of time. And position as a function of time. And I encourage you to pause this video
right now. And try to figure it out on your own. So let's just work through this. What is, we know that velocity, as a function of time, is going to be the
anti-derivative. The anti-derivitive of our acceleration is
a function of time. Our acceleration is just one. So this is going to be the anti-derivitive
of this right over here is going to be t and then we can't forget
our constant plus c. And now we can solve for c because we know
v of 3 is negative 3. So lets just write that down. So v of 3 is going to be equal to 3, 3
plus c. I just replaced where I saw the, the t or
every place where I have the t I replaced it with this 3
right over here. Actually let me make it a little bit
clearer. So v of 3, v of 3 is equal to 3 plus c,
and they tell us that that's equal to negative 3. So that is equal to, that is equal to
negative 3. So what's c going to be? So if we just look at this part of the equation or just this equation right
over here. If you subtract 3 from both sides, you
get, you get c is equal to negative 6. And so now we know the exact, we know the exact expression that defines velocity as
a function of time. V of t, v of t is equal to t, t plus negative 6 or, t minus 6. And we can verify that. The derivative of this with respect to
time is just one. And when time is equal to 3, time minus 6
is indeed negative 3. So we've been able to figure out velocity
a s a function of time. So now let's do a similar thing to figure
out position as a function of time. We know that position is gonna be an
anti-derivative of the velocity function, so let's write
that down. So, position, as a function of time, is
going to be equal to the anti-derivative of v of t,
dt. Which is equal to the anti-derivative of t
minus 6, dt which is equal to well the anti-derivative of t, is
t squared over 2. So, t squared over 2, we've seen that
before. The anti-derivative of negative 6 is
negative 6 t, and of course, we can't forget our constant, so,
plus, plus, c. So this is what s of t is equal to, s of t is equal to all of this business
right over here. And now we can try to solve, for our
constant. And we do that, using this information
right over here. At two seconds were at, our position is
negative two meters. So s of 2, or I could just write it this
way. Well, let me write it this way. S of 2, at 2 seconds, is going to be equal
to 2 squared over 2. That is, let's see, that's 4 over 2,
that's going to be 2. Minus 6 times 2. So, minus 12 + c is equal to negative 10,
is equal to negative 10. So, let's see, we get 2 minus 12 is negative, is negative 10 plus c equals
negative 10. So you add 10 to both sides you get c in
this case is equal to 0. So we figured out what our position
function is as well. The c right over here is just going to be
0. So our position as a function of time is
equal to t squared over 2 minus 6 t. And you can verify. When t is equal to 2, t squared over 2 is
2, minus 12 is negative 10. You take the derivative here, you get t
minus 6. And you can see and we already verified
that v of 3 is negative 3. And you take the derivative here, you get
a of t, just like that. Anyway, hopefully, you found this
enjoyable.
