Estimating the Second Derivative from Data
A set of position data for a moving vehicle is recorded at equally spaced time intervals: t = 0 s, 1 s, 2 s, 3 s, 4 s d = 0 m, 2 m, 7 m, 15 m, 26 m Using finite differences, estimate the second derivative of the function that models the vehicle’s motion […]
