There are distinct applications of integrals, out of which some are as follows:
In Maths
Integrals are used to find:
- The center of mass (centroid) of an area having curved sides
- The area between two curves and the area under a curve
- The curve's average value
In Physics
Integrals are used to find:
- Centre of gravity
- Mass and momentum of inertia of vehicles, satellites, and a tower
- The center of mass
- The velocity and the trajectory of a satellite at the time of placing it in orbit
- Thrust
