Abstract:The motion of a particle evaluated from the noninertial frame of the rotating Earth with constant angular velocity ω is solved analytically without carrying out a priori approximations, that is, considering both the Coriolis and the centrifugal terms. Position vector solutions written in terms of generic initial conditions were obtained from a decoupled sixth-order equation of motion, obtained using a fully vectorial approach, without specifically resorting to coordinates. By comparing the exact solutions for … Show more
