    A bus moving along a circular track is an example

    of
    A inertial frame of reference Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B non-inertial frame of reference Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C accelerated motion Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D both 2 & 3 Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    A bus moving along a circular track is an example of accelerated or non-inertial frame of reference. A frame of reference which is accelerating with respect to an inertial frame of reference is called non-inertial frame of reference. The bus is a non-inertial frame of reference. This is because the direction of bus is continuously changing and hence, it's velocity is also changing. Hence acceleration is changing.
