Question

A particle is observed from two frames S1 and S2. 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 is not possible?
(a) F1 = 0, F2 ≠ 0
(b) F1 ≠ 0, F2 = 0
(c) F1 ≠ 0, F2 ≠ 0
(d) F1 = 0, F2 = 0

Solution

(d) F1 = 0, F2 = 0

as2s1=a ...1
Acceleration of the particle w.r.t. to S1 = F1/m
Acceleration of the particle w.r.t. to S2 = F2/m
If we assume F1 = 0 and F2 = 0,
we can conclude that as2s1=0 ...2
From equations (1) and (2), we can say that our assumption is wrong.
And F1 = 0, F2 = 0 is not possible.
