Integration finds the area under a curve while differentiation finds the slope at a certain point of a curve.
Explanation:
A famous example of integration and differentiation in physics is with displacement, velocity, and acceleration.
If you take the integration of the velocity, you're finding out the displacement of the object. Displacement is the area under the velocity curve.
On the other hand, if you take the derivative of velocity at any point of the velocity curve, you find the acceleration at that point. Acceleration is the rate of change of the velocity curve.
