Rotating reference frame
ID: rotating-reference-frame
A rotating reference frame is a frame of reference in which the observer is undergoing rotation around an axis. In such frames, the laws of physics remain valid, but additional apparent forces, known as fictitious or pseudo-forces, must be considered due to the rotation. Two primary examples of these fictitious forces are the Coriolis force and the centrifugal force.
