We know that the equation of motion of particle can be derived from the respective action. But in the book I am reading, the author is saying:
... timelike worldline of a massive particle is parametrised by proper time, xa=xa(τ). The velocity (tangent) vector is ua≡˙xa(τ). This is normalised as uaua=−c2.
How can one derive e.o.m?
