Define inertial frame and non-inertial frame. Is earth an inertial frame of reference?

(A) : A reference frame attached to earth is a non inertial frame of reference. (R) : The reference frame which has an acceleration is called a non inertial frame of reference.

Assertion :- Newton's first law defines inertial frame of reference. Reason :- Newton's laws can be applied only in inertial frames of reference.
