📏Distance traveled📏 🟰 〰️Arc length〰️ #apcalculus #apcalc #unit8 #shorts

We're addressing a common scenario in AP Calculus: calculating the distance a particle travels along a curve over a specific interval. This task essentially requires us to compute the arc length of the curve for the given interval, as the arc length represents the total distance or length of the curve between two points.

Arc length in calculus is a fundamental concept that bridges the gap between geometric intuition and analytical computation. Whether a curve is defined as y=f(x) or x=g(y), the distance traveled by a particle along this curve is determined by the arc length formula suitable for the curve's definition.

To calculate the distance traveled (or arc length), we first need to identify the correct formula based on how the curve is defined. By selecting the appropriate arc length formula, plugging in the derivative of the curve and the interval's endpoints, and then integrating over the interval, we can find the total distance traveled by the particle over that interval.
