There is no such expression. The normal to a surface, at a given point is the radius of curvature of the surface, at that point.
How do you find the normal vector of a ball or sphere?
The normal vector to the surface is a radius at the point of interest.
What is definition of curved surface area?
A curved surface area can be described as one where the gradient of the normal to the surface changes smoothly from point to point.
What does matte proof mean?
Matte proof coins are special proofs that have a grainy "sandblasted" look on the surface. Matte proof coins were sometimes made in the early part of the 1900's. Normal proof coins have a mirror like brilliant surface.

What are the factors for holding the lungs to the thorax wall?
