An ant crawls with a velocity on a turntable in the z, y plane that is turning with an angular speed ω in the counterclockwise direction.

(a) what is the rotation vector of the turntable?
(b) what is the vector describing the coriolis force if the ant is moving in the +r direction (in cylindrical polar coordinates) from a radius ro?
(c) what is the vector describing the coriolis force if the the ant moves tangentially to the turntable, that is, v=vф, from a radius ro?
(d) what is the vector describing the coriolis force if the the ant climbs vertically along a tube on the turntable, that is, v= vz, from a radius ro?

i don’t know what the answer is i wish i

force is based upon mass and acceleration.the statement is not always true.

it can be explained from newton's second law of motion.

as per newton's second law of motion the rate of change of momentum is directly proportional to the applied force and takes place along the direction of force.

mathematically it can be written as -

                                              ⇒      

here   k is the proportionality constant whose value is 1.

                                                            [a is the acceleration=dv/dt]

hence we see that force not only depends on mass and acceleration but also on velocity and rate of change of mass. force f will depend on mass and acceleration only when mass is constant.

hence the statement that force is based upon mass and acceleration is false.
