This is *mostly* a fluid dynamics question, so I added that flag!

Feb 11, 2013 at 2:44 | comment | added | Terry Bollinger | @DavidZaslavsky, please re-read the earlier question and reconsider: This is not a duplicate of the earlier question now listed in the title. The earlier question was about Galilean relativity for an unaccelerated frame, and was straightforward to answer. This question is specifically about the effects of acceleration, and that transforms it into a very different and much more complex question about fluid dynamics, specifically settling rates of small objects under acceleration. Please re-read both questions; I don't even thing this one really needs re-phrasing, as it mentions acceleration. | |
