Document Summary
3:12 pm: motion in acceleration frames (non-inertial frames of reference) Two observers, a on road (inertial frame) and b in the car (non-inertial frame) car: the car has non-zero tangential and centripetal acceleration. B does not want to turn with the car; she has inertia which prevents her from turning with the car. Radial acceleration (coriolis force: dynamics of uniform circular motion, tension in a simple pendulum, motion in presence of resistive forces (fluid friction) Drag force proportional to speed )linear drag) Drag force proportional to v2 (quadratic drag)
