Calculus and Vectors B

MATH10131 Calculus and Vectors B 15 Semester 1 Undergraduate Level 1 Sergei Fedotov Unit coordinator Department of Mathematics 1 FHEQ level (Framework for Higher Education Qualifications) ' First part HE study/Bachelors ' European Credit Transfer & Accumulation System Rating : 7.5 This lecture course introduces the basic ideas of complex numbers relating them the standard transcendental functions of calculus. The basic ideas of the differential and integral calculus are revised and developed. Vectors in two and three dimensions are introduced and this leads on to the calculus of functions of more than one variable and the beginnings of vector calculus. This lecture course introduces the basic ideas of complex numbers relating them the standard transcendental functions of calculus. The basic ideas of the differential and integral calculus are revised and developed. Vectors in two and three dimensions are introduced and this leads on to the calculus of functions of more than one variable and the beginnings of vector calculus. The course unit unit aims to provide an introduction to the basic elements of calculus. On successful completion of this module students will be able to:  <ul> <li> Represent complex numbers in the complex plane and use them to relate trigonometric and exponential functions.  </li> <li> Sketch polynomial, rational, inverse and some standard functions of a single variable in Cartesian and polar coordinates.</li> <li> Evaluate and interpret limits and derivatives of algebraic functions, including functions expressed in implicit or parametric form.</li> <li> Select and deploy methods for evaluating integrals of functions of a single variable.</li> <li> Construct and manipulate Taylor series of scalar functions of one and two variables.</li> <li> Manipulate vectors using tools such as scalar and vector products, deploying these quantities to solve geometric problems.</li> <li> Construct, deploy and interpret derivatives of scalar functions of more than one variable.</li> <li> Construct, evaluate and interpret simple integrals of functions of two variables, using tools such as the Jacobian and Green's theorem. Construct and evaluate line integrals.</li> <li> Locate and classify extrema of functions of two variables.</li> </ul> <ul><li> Numbers and Functions.

MATH10111 Foundations of Pure Mathematics B Co-Requisite Compulsory N The course is based on the following text:<o:p></o:p>James Stewart, Calculus, Early Transcendentals, International Student Edition, Thomson (any recent edition).<o:p></o:p> Lectures 22 Tutorials 11 0 117 The independent study hours will normally comprise the following. During each week of the taught part of the semester:·         You will normally have approximately 75-120 minutes of video content. Normally you would spend approximately 2.5-4 hrs per week studying this content independently·         You will normally have exercise or problem sheets, on which you might spend approximately 2-2.5hrs per week.  You should also prepare work for the weekly supervision.·         There may be other tasks assigned to you on Blackboard, for example short quizzes or directed reading·         In some weeks you may be preparing coursework or revising for mid-semester testsTogether with the timetabled classes, you should be spending approximately 9 hours per week on this course unit.The remaining independent study time comprises revision for and taking the end-of-semester assessment.The above times are indicative only and may vary depending on the week and the course unit. More information can be found on the course unit’s Blackboard page.
