centrifugal_acceleration¶: Vector of centrifugal acceleration experienced by the body in the non-inertial, rotating frame.

Symbol:: a_cf
Latex:: \({\vec a}_\text{cf}\)
Dimension:: acceleration

centripetal_acceleration¶: Vector of centripetal acceleration experienced by the rotating body in the inertial frame.

Symbol:: a_cp
Latex:: \({\vec a}_\text{cp}\)

law¶

a_cf = -a_cp

Latex:: \[{\vec a}_\text{cf} = - {\vec a}_\text{cp}\]
