Differential calculus quiz: 3 questions
Three questions on the Differential calculus card, the way WikiCards duels ask them. Pick an answer, the facts are just below.
Find the missing word
The process of finding a ______ is called differentiation.
Answer
derivative. The process of finding a derivative is called differentiation. From the Differential calculus article on Wikipedia.
Which of these Wikipedia articles is read the most in a year?
Answer
Calcium oxide. Calcium oxide 180,000 · Buoyancy 140,000 · British thermal unit 110,000 · Differential calculus 70,000 Wikipedia reads over a year.
In a duel, each round asks a question like these about the opposing card, with 15 seconds to answer.
The facts on the card
The card carries these facts from its Wikipedia article.
- The primary objects of study in differential calculus are the derivative of a function, related notions such as the differential, and their applications.
- The derivative of a function at a chosen input equals the instantaneous rate of change of the function at that input.
- The process of finding a derivative is called differentiation.
Why it is Uncommon
Rarity in WikiCards follows a year of Wikipedia page views: the most read articles become Epic and Legendary cards. The Differential calculus article was read about 70,000 times in a year. ATK comes from the length of the article and DEF from its quality, so this card hits with 68 and blocks with 45: each hit it takes is cut by 18 %.
How to get Differential calculus
Open packs. Each pack holds five cards drawn from real Wikipedia articles, the rarest last, and the fifth card is always Rare or better. The odds are shown in the game. A free pack arrives every hour and two can wait, and the Coins you win in duels buy more packs.
