A particle is observed from two frames S1 and S2. The frame S2 moves with respect to S1 with an acceleration a. Let F1 and F2 be the pseudo forces on the particle when seen from S1 and S2 respectively. Which of the following are not possible?
Let us assume there a two frames S1 and S2 moving with acceleration a1 and a2. Now we know (a1−a2) = a as relative acceleration is a.
Now, magnitude of pseudo forces F1 and F2 will be ma1 and ma2 irrespective of where the object is.
F1=ma1, F2=ma2
when a1=0, thenF1=0,F2≠0
a2=0, then F1≠0,F2=0
when,a1≠0,a2≠0then,F1≠0,F2≠0
but it is impossible for both F1=0 and F2=0 as for this to happen, a1=0 and a2=0 which is not the case as there is relative acceleration.
