Kinematics in moving frame of reference
In 3D (space) -
Rectangular coordinate system
Spherical coordinate system (R-θ-φ)
Cylindrical coordinate system (r-θ-z)
2. Normal and tangential coordinate system:
n
t It gives a very natural description for the
t curvilinear motion and frequently the most
t n convenient coordinate system to use. t along
n
tangent and n is along normal which is positive
t towards the center of curvature.

both time rate of change of radial coordinate r
and angular speed
