Agenda for next few posts, Non-inertial reference frames

The purpose of the last few posts was mostly to understand normal co-ordinates and how to arrive at them without asking for a miracle, understanding convolutions and relationship to Laplace transform and lastly understanding Green's Function. By using a physical problem we can find a nice intuitional meanings of these mathematical objects. The next few posts will be to try to understand movement in non-inertial reference frames. The basis of the posts will be John R Taylor's book on classical mechanics although I take a peek at Landau's first volume. The summa will be Euler's rigid body equations.
