Calculus Animations,Graphics and Lecture Notes
Directional Derivatives/Gradient
The following animations and lecture notes discuss the directional derivativeIn Animation1 We see the rate at which f is changing at a point depends on the direction we travel from the pt
Notes - Directional Derivatives and the Gradient
Animation1
The following 2 animations show f changing in the diection of the gradient and opposite to the gradient
gradient
negative gradient
The following Animation shows that as you move along a level curve in the domain, there is no change in the value of f(x,y) on the surface.
