Coriolis effect
... The Coriolis effect exists only when one uses a rotating reference frame. In the rotating frame it behaves exactly like a real force (that is to say, it causes acceleration and has real effects). However, Coriolis force is a consequence of inertia, and is not attributable to an identifiable originat ...

... The tractor has a larger forward force (driving force = 3000N) than drag (1500N). The two forces (vectors) can be represented by arrows as shown above. The resultant force acting on the tractor is the difference between the two forces. It can be calculated by subtracting the two vectors. In this cas ...

Rotational Motion Torque Moment of Inertia
... Tangential components of forces give rise to torques. They also cause tangential accelerations. Consider the tangential component of the net force, Fnet,t : Fnet,t = m at from Newton’s second law. τnet = r × Fnet = r Fnet,t n̂ Now let’s specifically consider the case of a single particle, mass m, at ...
