Click For Summary
Integration is essential in various fields, particularly where calculus is applied, such as physics, population dynamics, and epidemiology. It allows for the understanding of how quantities change over time through differential equations. Concept videos on platforms like YouTube, including those from the Domain of Science and 3Blue1Brown, effectively illustrate these principles. These resources highlight the importance of integration in solving real-world problems. Overall, integration serves as a fundamental tool in analyzing and modeling dynamic systems.

Where is it useful?
 
Physics news on Phys.org
Everywhere Calculus is used.

There are some great concept videos on YouTube namely the Domain of Science channel where he recently posted a video on Calculus and how it’s used.
 
Thank you

We usually describe the world around us with differential equations, from physics, to populations, and epidemics. The reason is, that we want to know how certain quantities change over time, and this is a differential equation. In order to solve them, we have to perform integrations.
 
You might try this 3Blue1Brown video

I was thinking of posting that one too but went with the Domain of Science one first as 3Blue1Brown is a set of ten videos on Calculus.
