What to Focus On

  • Distance covered by the dropped body is s = 4.9t^2 metres.
  • Instantaneous velocity at t = 2 seconds lies between 19.551 m/s and 19.649 m/s.
  • Instantaneous velocity equals the slope of the tangent to the distance-time curve.

  • Left hand limit is the expected value from the left of a point.
  • Right hand limit is the expected value from the right of a point.
  • If left and right hand limits differ, the limit does not exist.

  • A limit may exist even when the function value at that point is not defined.
  • If the left and right hand limits at a point differ, the limit does not exist.
  • Infinite limits are excluded from the chapter.

Common Mistakes to Avoid

If the function value exists at a point, the limit at that point must also exist and be the same.

To find a limit, always substitute the point directly into the expression.

If the denominator becomes 0, the limit is always zero or always undefined without checking the numerator.

Memory Tips

Limit as the expected value near a point

Left-hand limit and right-hand limit

Function value and limit may be different

Average velocity leading to instantaneous velocity
