In summary, the conversation is about a possible question that combines integrability and the link between the differentiability operation and the integration operation in Newton calculus. One example mentioned is the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, which states that the derivative of an integral is equal to the original function. The conversation also suggests doing a search for more ideas on this topic. Another example question that combines these concepts is \frac{d}{dx}\int_a^{x^2} f(t) dt = ?. It is noted that both Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz are credited with the development of calculus.

i was told that i would be asked a question that deals with
integrability and the link between the differentiability operation
and the integration operation(the basic laws of Newton calculus)

what question he can give that combines this things??
can you give an example??

i can't find a question like this

Sounds like he might be thinking of the Fundamental Theorem of Calculus, which says in part for a suitable function f, that
[tex]\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^x f(t) dt = f(x)[/tex]

Do a search on "fundamental theorem of calculus" and you should get some ideas.

[tex]\frac{d}{dx}\int_a^{x^2} f(t) dt = ?[/tex]
Here's one fairly simple problem

Regarding "Newton calculus" both Isaac Newton and Gottfried Leibniz are credited about equally with the development of calculus.
