A Study on a Partially Null Curve in E₂⁴

In this paper, we study with Frenet equations which are given in [3] of a partially null curve in Semi- Euclidean 4-space E₂⁴ with index 2. By using the Frenet equations, we give some theorem and corollary. A characterization of a  hyperbolic partially null curve in E₂⁴ is given. Additionally, we examine harmonic curvatures and curvatures of this curve in E₂⁴
