The measurement of the distance that runs along a portion of a curve is referred to as the arc length. This mathematical concept is typically determined via integral calculus, where one integrates the absolute value of the derivative of the equation for the curve. It's a concept frequently seen in disciplines such as physics or engineering, along with any other field where curves or pathways are involved.
