A rotating frame of reference is a special case of a non-inertial reference frame that is rotating relative to an inertial reference frame. An everyday example of a rotating reference frame is the surface of the Earth. (This article considers only frames rotating about a fixed axis. For more general rotations, see Euler angles.) ==Fictitious forces== (詳細はnon-inertial reference frames exhibit fictitious forces. Rotating reference frames are characterized by three fictitious forces: * the centrifugal force, * the Coriolis force, and, for non-uniformly rotating reference frames, * the Euler force. Scientists living in a rotating box can measure the speed and direction of their rotation by measuring these fictitious forces. For example, Léon Foucault was able to show the Coriolis force that results from the Earth's rotation using the Foucault pendulum. If the Earth were to rotate many times faster, these fictitious forces could be felt by humans, as they are when on a spinning carousel. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「rotating reference frame」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
