Title: Calculus 7.1
17.1 Integral as Net Change
2There is a fine line between fishing and just
standing on the shore like an idiot.
3A honey bee makes several trips from the hive to
a flower garden.
The velocity graph is shown below.
What is the total distance traveled by the bee?
700 feet
200ft
200ft
200ft
100ft
4What is the displacement of the bee?
100 feet towards the hive
200ft
200ft
-200ft
-100ft
5To find the displacement (position shift) from
the velocity function, we just integrate the
function. The negative areas below the x-axis
subtract from the total displacement.
To find distance traveled we have to use absolute
value.
Find the roots of the velocity equation and
integrate in pieces, just like when we found the
area between a curve and the x-axis. (Take the
absolute value of each integral.)
Or you can use your calculator to integrate the
absolute value of the velocity function.

7In the linear motion equation
V(t) is a function of time.
For a very small change in time, V(t) can be
considered a constant.
We add up all the small changes in S to get the
total distance.
8We add up all the small changes in S to get the
total distance.
9This same technique is used in many different
real-life problems.

11Example 5
National Potato Consumption
We add up all these small amounts to get the
total consumption
From the beginning of 1972 to the end of 1973
12Work
Calculating the work is easy when the force and
distance are constant.
When the amount of force varies, we get to use
calculus!

Example 7
It takes 10 Newtons to stretch a spring 2 meters
beyond its natural length.
How much work is done stretching the spring to 4
meters beyond its natural length?

meters beyond its natural length?
For a very small change in x, the force is
constant.
