      The author calls a submanifold \(T\)-constant (respectively \(N\)-constant) if the tangential component (respectively, the normal component) of its position function has constant length. Space-like submanifolds of a pseudo-Euclidean space which are \(T\)-constant or \(N\)-constant are classified. Several examples are given.
