Algebraic Description of Motion
Davidon, William C.
American Journal of Physics, 42, 9, 764-767, Sep 74
An algebraic definition of time differentiation is presented and used to relate independent measurements of position and velocity. With this, students can grasp certain essential physical, geometric, and algebraic properties of motion and differentiation before undertaking the study of limits. (Author)
