Higher Order Derivatives

Calculus: We define the higher order derivatives of a function f(x). We note alternative notations, and describe the physical significance of the second derivative as acceleration for motion in a line.

I took physics in high school and now I'm taking Calc in college. Finally I have realized the connection, thank-you.

You're welcome! Physics without calc is really hard. I learned both at the same time, which still isn't ideal.

I worry that if I get the wrong solution MathDoctorBob will shatter my skeletal system with one hand

But what does the third/fourth etc. derivative mean?

thanks for the help with math but you made me sad because i thought one of my ear buds died
