Fpseudo = − m a_frame
What each symbol means
| Symbol | What it stands for |
|---|---|
| Fpseudo | Pseudo force on mass m in accelerating frame |
| a_frame | Acceleration of non-inertial frame (inertial observer) |
When to use this
In a frame accelerating with a_frame, free particle appears to feel −m a_frame pseudo force (in addition to real forces).
