The paradox of the derivative: Essence of Calculus - Part 2 of 11

The video tutorial explains the concept of derivatives, highlighting the paradox of instantaneous rate of change. It uses a car's motion as an example to illustrate how distance and velocity are related. The tutorial delves into the mathematical derivation of derivatives, emphasizing the simplification process and addressing the paradox of change in an instant. The video aims to provide a deeper understanding of calculus and its applications.
