Fictitious Forces
摘要
We have based our considerations on Newton’s axioms. We have learned that they only apply in inertial systems. In fact, we can understand Newton's first axiom as a definition of the inertial frames. In this chapter, we will look at extending Newton's axioms to non-inertial frames. In doing so, we will be forced to introduce fictious force as a remnant of the acceleration of those reference system. The most important of these fictious forces will be discussed.
