Question about velocities in different reference frames

Suppose $\hat{x^{'}}, \hat{y^{'}}, \hat{z^{'}} $ are the unit vectors of an inertial frame and $\hat{x}, \hat{y}, \hat{z} $ are the unit vectors of a frame which maybe accelerating, rotating, whatever …

If you are in a frame which is fixed to the Earth's center, but not rotating with the Earth,... [duplicate]

We usually treat the earth frame as approximately inertial. When we want to apply corrections, we use the centrifugal, coriolis and azimuthal forces. Are they all the corrections we would ever need? T …

Why is time taken to go around the Sun to cover a small fixed angle proportional to the squa...

I am reading Feynman's lost lecture. At this point, he asks us to consider points J, K, L and M which subtend equal angles at the sun S. And then he claims that triangles JKS and KLS are similar becau …
