Description: Calculus is a division of mathematics that involves
finding derivatives, integrals, and properties of functions.
One subdivision of calculus is differential calculus
which deals with continuous change and its applications.
Another subdivision is differential calculus
which deals with the rates at which quantities change.
Although calculus was not discovered until the 1670’s,
by Sir Isaac… more

anything including light, but the speed of the light
is said to be infinite because nothing in the known
physical form can actually stay in the form on reaching
the speed of light. That means that for the light
to be pulled… more
