Development of Mathematical Formulas Correlating the Normal and Tangential Components of Acceleration with Its Rectangular (x-y) Components

Rogelio Fretten C. Dela Cruz

Abstract—In this study, a topic in Engineering Mechanics was examined. The mathematical formulas correlating the normal and tangential components, an and at, of acceleration with its rectangular components, ax and ay, were derived. This study will provide engineering practitioners, teachers, and students with additional tools in solving problems in curvilinear motions.

Index Terms—Curvilinear motion, normal and tangential components of acceleration, rectangular components.
