2.1 Inertial Frames of Reference
... Definition. A frame of reference is a system of spatial coordinates and possibly a temporal coordinate. A frame of reference in which the Law of Inertia holds is an inertial frame or inertial system. An observer at rest (i.e. with zero velocity) in such a system is an inertial observer. Note. The ma ...
