2nd Order
Even a stopped clock is right once a day.
English proverb
< 1st Order | Determinant | Curvature >
  • Determinant:
    [; D(t)= \underline{ \widehat{r} }'(t) \cdot \underline{r}''(t) = y''(t)x'(t)-x''(t)y'(t) ;]
    • [;D(t()>0;]: Goes to the Left
    • [;D(t()<0;]: Goes to the Right
    • [;D(t()=0;]: 2nd Order Effects
