Restate a function in order to simplify its integration or derivation t is often used, but it is just a variable name This process simplifies integration of line integrals Parabolic Cylindrical Spherical
What are Taylor Series Used for? Limit of a Taylor Polynomial Uses multiple derivatives in order to find an estimation at a nearby point. More terms = better approx. Let f be a function with derivatives of order k for k=1,2,…,N in some interval containing a as an interior point. For any integer n from 0 through N The taylor polynomial of order n generated by f as x=a is the polynomial…
Estimate the value of e x at 0.05 What do we have? a = 0 f(x)=e x f’(x)=e x Start with the derivatives at that point
Adding terms to the taylor expansion leads to greater convergence onto the function How did you think your calculator worked? See Freddies multiple variable discussion

Smooth Check is a matrix of all variables and their partials We are effectively equating our vector field to the gradient of our function Path Independence Convert to polar No Singularities Magnetism Gravity Work Done
Smooth Check Check the partial derivatives Integrate One Component Constant function of others Partial with respect to another component y in this example Compare it to the y component and solve for g’(y,z) Repeat these two steps for the remaining components A conservative vector field has a constant in the very end, relating it to no other variables

Curl is the tendency to rotate Divergence is the tendency to explode
The integral of the derivative over a region R is equal to the value of the function at the boundary B. Divergence Theorem R = Volume B = Surface Curl/Stokes Theorem R = Surface B = Line Integral
Integrate to see how a field acts upon a particle moving along a curve. Calculating the work done by a force that changes with time over a curve that changes with time Estimating wire weight, given a density function

1. The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the sun at a focus 2. A line joining a planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time 3. The square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit
Originally a radical claim, because the belief was that planets orbited in perfect circles. Ellipse for inner planets has such low eccentricity, so they can be mistaken for circles The orbit of every planet is an ellipse with the sun at a focus (r, theta) are heliocentric polar coordinates, p is the semi-latus rectum, and E is the eccentricity
Planets move faster the closer it is to the sun In a certain interval of time, the planet will travel from A to B In an equal interval of time, the planet will travel from C to D The resulting "triangles" have the same area Conservation of angular momentum A line joining a planet and the sun sweeps out equal areas during equal intervals of time
Is a way to compare the distances traveled between planets and how fast two planets travel, given the difference between the linear distances from the sun. Example: Say Planet R is 4 times as far from the sun as Planet B. So R must travel 4 times as far per orbit as B. R also travels at half the speed of B, so it will take R 8 times as long to complete an orbit as B. 3) "The square of the orbital period of a planet is directly proportional to the cube of the semi-major axis of its orbit." P is the orbital period of the planet and a is the semimajor axis of the orbit Formerly known as the harmonic law
