Homework Statement

the acceleration of a particle as seen from 2 frames s₁ and s₂ is 4 , what can be the value of acceleration between s₁ and s₂

Homework Equations

The Attempt at a Solution

the answer to this question is anything between 0 to 8 , but i do not know the reason , pl help!

I can't understand your question but for any 2 frames A (non inertial) and Ground and a particle P, you can write,$$\vec{a}_{P \ wrt \ Ground} \ = \ \vec{a}_{P \ wrt \ A} \ + \ \vec{a}_{A \ wrt \ Ground}$$

i will re-phrase the question as :the accelerations of a particle as seen from 2 frames s1 ana s2 have equal magnitude =4 ; what can be possible the relationships between the accelerations of s1 and s2.

The answer 0 to 8 seems reasonable, if the coordinate axes of the two frames do not rotate relative to each other.

Rotation of the reference frames may allow a larger range for the answer.
