| lets say z=dy/dx and m=dy/dt can i say that m=zdx/dt given that z is a function of time.

Hi,
You should consider practical examples to answer your question.

No, its valid only when the domain of the functions are preserved during the transformation.
Lets consider an example X = a sin ωt and Y = b cos ωt then Z = dY/dX
= -b/a tan ωt, now the function Z is defined for all values of t except when t is 2nΠ ± Π/2 but the function M = dY/dt = -b sin ωt is defined for all values of t.
However we observe that M = Z . dX/dt = -b/a tan ωt * a cos ωt, would hold good if we can ensure that the domain of t is restricted to all real values except 2nΠ ± Π/2.
