Acceleration can be seen in
Correct answer: C. Rotating frame of reference
- A. Uniformly moving frame of reference
- B. Rest frame of reference
- C. Rotating frame of reference
- D. None of these
Explanation
A rotating frame of reference shows a change in direction hence a change in velocity, which is acceleration. A uniformly moving frame of reference would display uniform motion, hence no change in velocity, and a rest frame would have 0 velocities as speed would have no magnitude

About Force and Motion
Displacement, velocity and acceleration describe motion, including the horizontal and vertical components of projectile motion. The chapter connects these quantities with Newton's laws, momentum and impulse, then applies conservation of momentum to collisions, distinguishing elastic collisions from inelastic ones.
