Here, the curvilinear motions measurements are made along the tangent (t) and the normal (n) to the path.
n-t coordinates are considered to move along the path with the particle.
The positive direction of the normal (n) always points to the center of curvature of the path; while the positive direction of the tangent (t) is taken in the direction of particle advance (for convenience).
et & en are the unit vectors in t-direction and n-direction, respectively.

Note: as mentioned before that the velocity vector v is always tangent to the path; thus, the velocity has only one component in the n-t coordinates, which is in the t-direction. This means that vn = 0.
Its magnitude is:

Note: et, in this case, has a non-zero derivative, since it changes its direction. Its magnitude remains constant at 1.

Exercise # 1
2/97: A particle moves in a circular path of 0.4 m radius. Calculate the magnitude a of the acceleration of the particle (a) if its speed is constant at 0.6 m/s and (b) if its speed is 0.6 m/s but is increasing at the rate of 1.2 m/s each second. .
Exercise # 2
Determine the maximum speed that the cars of theroller-coaster can reach along the circular portion AB of the track if the normal component of their accelerationcannot exceed 3g.
Exercise # 32/101: The driver of the truck has an acceleration of 0.4g as the truck passes over the top A of the hump in the road at constant speed. The radius of curvature of the road at the top of the hump is 98 m, and the center of mass G of the driver (considered a particle) is 2 m above the road. Calculate the speed v of the truck.
Exercise # 42/110: Write the vector expression for the acceleration a of the mass center G of the simple pendulum in both n-t and x-y coordinates

and .. = 2.45 rad/s2.
Exercise # 5 A motorist starts from rest at point A on a circular entrance ramp when t = 0, increases the speed of her automobile at a constant rate and enters the highway at point B. Knowing that her speed continues to increase at the same rate until it reaches 104 km/h at point C, determine (a) the speed at point B, (b) the magnitude of the total acceleration when t = 15 s.

Plane Curvilinear Motion – Polar Coordinates
Here, the curvilinear motions measurements are made by the radial distance (r) from a fixed pole and by an angular measurement () to the radial line.
The x-axis is used as a reference line for the measurement of . er & e are the unit vectors in r-direction and -direction,
