moving frame of reference
1Frame of reference — Frame of reference, n. 1. an arbitrary set of spatial coordinates used to describe the position or motion of objects. The coordinates may be fixed or moving; as, a rotating frame of reference. [PJC] 2. a set of assumptions or conditions that are… …
2Frame of reference — A frame of reference in physics, may refer to a coordinate system or set of axes within which to measure the position, orientation, and other properties of objects in it, or it may refer to an observational reference frame tied to the state of… …
3Moving frame — The Frenet Serret frame on a curve is the simplest example of a moving frame. In mathematics, a moving frame is a flexible generalization of the notion of an ordered basis of a vector space often used to study the extrinsic differential geometry… …
4Inertial frame of reference — In physics, an inertial frame of reference is a frame of reference which belongs to a set of frames in which physical laws hold in the same and simplest form. According to the first postulate of special relativity, all physical laws take their… …

7Moving magnet and conductor problem — Conductor moving in a magnetic field. The moving magnet and conductor problem is a famous thought experiment, originating in the 19th century, concerning the intersection of classical electromagnetism and special relativity. In it, the current in …
8reference frame — Physics. See frame of reference (def. 2). [1920 25] * * * or frame of reference Coordinate system that allows description of time and position of points relative to a body. The axes, or lines, emanate from a position called the origin. As a point …
9Frame-dragging — Albert Einstein s theory of general relativity predicts that rotating bodies drag spacetime around themselves in a phenomenon referred to as frame dragging. The rotational frame dragging effect was first derived from the theory of general… …
