If dr = (dx, dy, dz) so, which is the correct form for d²r? Is (d²x, d²y, d²z) or (dy^dz, dz^dx, dx^dy) ?

MuIotaTau said:I imagine he's referring to the "numerator" of a second derivative such as ##\frac{d^2 \vec{r}}{dt^2}## in analogy with his identification of the differential form ##d\vec{r}## with the "numerator" of a first derivative.
