Accelerated Frame of Reference
You are glued to carÕs floor
and drop an egg.
What happens if the car
begins to accelerate?
Inside the car, it
looks a mystery force is attracting the egg
to the back of the car. Your frame of
reference is accelerating.
Someone outside the car
sees that the egg is just accelerating to the floor, you are accelerating with the box car. A force is accelerating the car. Their frame of reference is not accelerating.
Splat!
