[QUOTE="Arjan82, post: 6396538, member: 177647"] The forces in an non-inertial reference frame are fictitious in a different way than the inertial forces are fictitious. The first forces effectively cancel the acceleration due to the non-inertial reference frame such that the acceleration of the reference frame is deleted from your dynamics again. It is more of an administrative thing you could say. There is an argument to be made that inertial forces are not really fictitious. It is the resistance of mass to movement, and you do actually feel a countering force when trying to accelerate a mass. [/QUOTE]
