- Calculus involves dividing problems into small pieces to understand change (differential calculus) or combining pieces to find totals (integral calculus).
- Newton's Law of Cooling uses differential calculus to model how an object's temperature changes over time as it approaches the temperature of its environment.
- Integral calculus can be used to calculate the area under a curve, such as finding the area between a curve and the x-axis given the curve's equation and bounds of integration.
