User talk:William M. Connolley/Fictitious force

Hi, why don't they simple write "reaction force" (that is, reaction to rotation)? It's very foggy, if not downright wrong, to call a real physical reaction force "fictitious" (which implies imaginary). Cheers, Harald88 20:54, 29 October 2005 (UTC)


 * From my reading of GR, there is no meaningful distinction between real, reaction and fictitious force. But someone else can go argue that on their page... William M. Connolley 21:20, 29 October 2005 (UTC).
