Practice Questions

Test your understanding with targeted questions related to the topic.

Question 1

Easy

Define a non-inertial frame.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about frames that change speed or direction.

Question 2

Easy

What is a pseudo-force?

πŸ’‘ Hint: It comes into play when the frame isn't moving at a constant velocity.

Question 1

What is a non-inertial frame?

  • A frame at constant velocity
  • A frame that is accelerating
  • A frame that is rotating

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider the states of motion relative to Newton's laws.

Question 2

True or False: Pseudo-forces can lead to miscalculations in a non-inertial frame.

  • True
  • False

πŸ’‘ Hint: Think about how these forces arise.

Challenge Problems

Push your limits with challenges.

Question 1

A rider on a Ferris wheel experiences apparent outward force due to acceleration. Describe the types of forces at play when the wheel rotates at a constant speed.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Consider both the acceleration of the ride and the perception of the force felt by the rider.

Question 2

Calculate the imaginary Coriolis force affecting a plane flying from the equator to the North Pole at a constant speed. Assume the plane travels at 200 km/h.

πŸ’‘ Hint: Setup the equation and remember to convert units as needed.
