Let \[\vec r(s)\] be the position vector of a curve C where s is the arc length measured from a fixed point on the curve C consider \[\frac{d \vec r}{ds}.\frac{d^2 \vec r}{ds^2} \times \frac{d^3 \vec r}{ds^3}\] Now this is equal to \[\vec T . \kappa \vec N \times (\kappa \frac{d \vec N}{ds}+\frac{d \kappa}{ds}\vec N)\] \[\implies \vec T.\kappa \vec N \times (\kappa(\tau \vec B-\kappa \vec T)+N \frac{d \kappa}{ds})\] Now shouldn't \[\frac{d \kappa}{ds}\] be 0??Isn't curvature and torsion constant ??

sorry that's \[\vec N \frac{d \kappa}{ds}\] not \[N \frac{d \kappa}{ds}\] in the last step

Prove that \[\frac{d \vec r}{ds}.\frac{d^2 \vec r}{ds^2} \times \frac{d^3 \vec r}{ds^3}=\frac{\tau}{\rho^2}\] where\[\rho=\frac{1}{\kappa}\]
