  2. Fictitious force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fictitious_force

    The fictitious force called a pseudo force might also be referred to as a body force. It is due to an object's inertia when the reference frame does not move inertially any more but begins to accelerate relative to the free object. In terms of the example of the passenger vehicle, a pseudo force seems to be active just before the body touches ...

  3. Non-inertial reference frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-inertial_reference_frame

    In classical mechanics it is often possible to explain the motion of bodies in non-inertial reference frames by introducing additional fictitious forces (also called inertial forces, pseudo-forces, [5] and d'Alembert forces) to Newton's second law. Common examples of this include the Coriolis force and the centrifugal force.

  4. Rotating reference frame - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rotating_reference_frame

    In classical mechanics, centrifugal force is an outward force associated with rotation.Centrifugal force is one of several so-called pseudo-forces (also known as inertial forces), so named because, unlike real forces, they do not originate in interactions with other bodies situated in the environment of the particle upon which they act.

  5. Centrifugal force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Centrifugal_force

    Centrifugal force is a fictitious force in Newtonian mechanics (also called an "inertial" or "pseudo" force) that appears to act on all objects when viewed in a rotating frame of reference. It appears to be directed radially away from the axis of rotation of the frame.

  6. Coriolis force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Coriolis_force

    The centrifugal force acts outwards in the radial direction and is proportional to the distance of the body from the axis of the rotating frame. These additional forces are termed inertial forces, fictitious forces, or pseudo forces. By introducing these fictitious forces to a rotating frame of reference, Newton's laws of motion can be applied ...

    Irresistible force paradox: What would happen if an unstoppable force hit an immovable object? The moving rows: Suppose two rows are moving past a stationary row in opposite directions. If a member of a moving row moves past a member of the stationary row in an indivisible instant of time, they move past two members of the row that is moving in ...

    That unit and a joint U.N.-OPCW mechanism have already identified Syria's armed forces as having used chemical weapons nine times between 2015 and 2017. The culprits of many attacks remain ...
