In this video, I go over the vector version of Isaac Newton's 2nd Law of Motion, which states that if a force F acts on a particle of mass m producing an acceleration a, then F = m a, where F and a are

In this video, I show that we can obtain the velocity of a moving object by first integrating its acceleration vector to obtain its velocity and then integrating the velocity vector. This follows from

In this video, I extend the formula for the arc length of a 2D plane curve to that of a 3D space curve, both of which can be represented in compact form as the integral of the length of the derivative

In this video, I go over further into vector functions and this time do a deep dive into the arc length and curvature of a space curve. The arc length for a space curve is calculated in much the same way

In this video I show that the tangent vector (derivative of a vector function) is orthogonal or perpendicular to a vector of constant length. Geometrically this means that the curve is on the surface of
