i was told that i would be asked a question that deals with
integrability and the link between the differentiability operation
and the integration operation(the basic laws of Newton calculus)

what question he can give that combines this things??
can you give an example??

i can't find a question like this

Sounds like he might be thinking of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, which says in part for a suitable function f, that
\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^x f(t) dt = f(x)

Do a search on "fundamental theorem of calculus" and you should get some ideas.

\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^{x^2} f(t) dt = ?
Here's one fairly simple problem

Regarding "Newton calculus" both Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz are credited about equally with the development of calculus.
 
There are two things I don't understand about this problem. First, when finding the nth root of a number, there should in theory be n solutions. However, the formula produces n+1 roots. Here is how. The first root is simply ##\left(r\right)^{\left(\frac{1}{n}\right)}##. Then you multiply this first root by n additional expressions given by the formula, as you go through k=0,1,...n-1. So you end up with n+1 roots, which cannot be correct. Let me illustrate what I mean. For this...
