Paragraph

A frame of reference that is accelerated with respect to an inertial frame of reference is called a non-inertial frame of reference. A coordinate system fixed on a circular disc rotating about a fixed axis with a constant angular velocity ω is an example of a non-inertial frame of reference. The relationship between the force Frot experience by a particle of mass m moving on the rotating disc and the force Fin experienced by the particle in an inertial frame of reference is

Frot=Fin+2m(vrot×ω)+m(ω×r)×ω,



where vrot is the velocity of the particle in the rotating frame of reference and r is the position vector of the particle with respect to the centre of the disc. Now consider a smooth slot along a diameter of a disc of radius R rotating counterclockwise with a constant angular speed ω about its vertical axis through its center. We assign a coordinate system with the origin at the center of the disc, the xaxis along the slot, the y axis perpendicular to the slot and the z axis along the rotation axis ω=ωk. A small block of mass m is gently placed in the slot at r=(R/2)i at t=0 and is constrained to move only along the slot.
