Is there any true inertial reference frame in the universe?
$\begingroup$ psuedo force is an imaginary force which is applied on the body if the frame is non inertial,in order to use the equation F=ma.The direction of psuedo force is opposite to the direction of acceleration of non inertial observer w.r.t inertial frame.the magnitude of psuedo force=mass of the body on which it is applied*acceleration ...
Why exactly is Newton’s Second Law valid only in non …
2022年8月18日 · A reference frame where Newton’s second law is valid is called an inertial frame of reference. Force is absolute, so is mass(for sufficiently small speeds), so if a frame is to measure an accelera...
general relativity - The equivalence principle and identifying free ...
To solve this question Newton assumed a new force to counter the effect of 'acceleration' on Earth's surface. Einstein questions this assumption and says that we need to assume a new force whose cause is not visible as we are in a non inertial reference frame. This brings us the geometry of space and time and curvatures produces in it due to mass.
What is an inertial frame? - Physics Stack Exchange
2017年3月22日 · Wikipedia defines an inertial frame as: In classical physics and special relativity, an inertial frame of reference (also inertial reference frame or inertial frame, Galilean reference frame or inertial space) is a frame of reference that describes time and space homogeneously, isotropically, and in a time-independent manner. [1] The physics of ...
Why and when can the Earth be considered an inertial reference …
2021年9月9日 · A reference frame attached to the Earth surface is non-inertial, and fictitious forces need to be introduced: the centrifugal force, the Coriolis force, and the Euler force. These forces can be neglected, if they are are small, as discussed in the older version of …
newtonian mechanics - How does one determine an inertial frame ...
2015年5月8日 · 2. Short answer: One cannot determine whether a reference frame is inertial. It is simply not possible. This situation is avoided in General Relativity (or any of its extensions), since in GR the physics does not depend on the reference frame (any reference frame), and the concept of inertial frame is not necessary.
Kinetic energy with respect to different reference frames
That is actually true. What is amazing, however, is that while the value of the energy is frame DEpendent, once you've chosen an inertial reference frame, the law of conservation of energy itself is NOT reference frame-dependent -- every inertial reference frame will observe a constant energy, even if the exact number they measure is different ...
How can you tell if a given reference frame is inertial?
An inertial reference frame is one in which a particle has constant velocity if and only if has a zero net force acting on it. How can one determine if a given reference frame is inertial? For example, consider an elevator falling on earth, uniformly accelerating towards the ground. There is a man inside and can see only the interior of the ...
How is a change in KE the same in every inertial reference frame?
2022年3月23日 · This article says a change in kinetic energy (KE) remains constant in all inertial reference frames. So the kinetic energy depends upon the measurement frame of reference. But whatever inertial (non-accelerating) reference frame you use, changes of kinetic energy will be unaffected by this choice.
Is the energy conserved in a moving frame of reference?
One could define inertial frame of reference as the frame of reference that moves with constant velocity, i.e. acceleration of such frame of reference is zero. In inertial frame of reference all Newton laws are valid, and since energy is defined as a work of the conservative force, energy should be conserved.
