Questions and Answers

What is the significance of Newton's First Law in the context of inertial frames?

  • It enables us to find an inertial frame for any motion (correct)
  • It states that an object at rest will remain at rest
  • It allows us to choose a non-inertial reference frame
  • It is only applicable to objects in motion

  • Gravitational acceleration
  • What is the relationship between the coordinate systems of two inertial frames I and I'?

  • The origins and axes of the two systems are perpendicular
  • The origins and axes of the two systems are skewed
  • The origins and axes of the two systems are parallel
