The course 0.2061 in Aalto University covers motion in non-inertial-reference frame but without examples and without references (examples are outlined only in lectures but I find them very hard to follow). I am looking for English -material to find examples how to do calculations in non-inertial reference -frame. I am looking for geometrically-biased books: draw this kind of picture, state this kind of equations and solve with this kind of techniques. The equation below contains things such as corelios -acceleration, angular velocity and Centrifugal force (in Finnish: keskipakois -voima).

enter image description here

An user suggested "Daniel Kleppner, Robert Kolenkow An Introduction To Mechanics" and "Feynman, Leyton, Sands. Lectures on physics". I don't know whether the actually covers the topics, I am extremely poor in searching the right material, time-consuming. So I need references to books covering "motion in non-inertial -reference-frame", where can I find such books or material?
