AI Generated Solution

To determine whether the pilot landing or taking off an airplane is an inertial observer or in a non-inertial frame of reference, we can analyze the situation step by step. ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Understanding Frames of Reference**: - A frame of reference is considered inertial if it is either at rest or moving at a constant velocity. In such frames, Newton's laws of motion hold true without any modifications. - A non-inertial frame is one that is accelerating. In these frames, fictitious forces (pseudo forces) must be introduced to apply Newton's laws. ...

Statement-I : Time period of spring block system is the same whether in an accelerated or in an inertial frame of reference. Statement-II : Mass of the block of spring block system and spring constant of the spring are independent of the acceleration of the frame of reference.

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 omega is an example of non=inertial frame of reference. The relationship between the force vecF_(rot) experienced by a particle of mass m moving on the rotating disc and the force vecF_(in) experienced by the particle in an inertial frame of reference is vecF_(rot)=vecF_(i n)+2m(vecv_(rot)xxvec omega)+m(vec omegaxx vec r)xxvec omega . where vecv_(rot) is the velocity of the particle in the rotating frame of reference and vecr is the position vector of the particle with respect to the centre of the disc. Now consider a smooth slot along a diameter fo a disc of radius R rotating counter-clockwise with a constant angular speed omega about its vertical axis through its center. We assign a coordinate system with the origin at the center of the disc, the x-axis along the slot, the y-axis perpendicular to the slot and the z-axis along the rotation axis (vecomega=omegahatk) . A small block of mass m is gently placed in the slot at vecr(R//2)hati at t=0 and is constrained to move only along the slot. The distance r of the block at time is
