Jerk

- The rate at which the acceleration of an object changes in respect to time
- The first time derivative of acceleration (velocity/time, m/s^2), second time derivative of velocity (position/time, m/s), and third time derivative of a position vector
- Denoted as j, its units are m/s^3
- Followed by higher-order time derivatives Snap, Crackle, and Pop because physicists are awesome
- Also a word one might use to insult someone else’s unsavory personality
