PHYS 307 LECTURE NOTES, Daniel W. Koon, St. Lawrence Univ.
... Consider a pair of fuzzy dice hanging from a car's rear-view mirror. If the car is at rest, they hang straight down. The tension in the strings cancels the pull of their weight. Without changing those two forces, we begin to accelerate the car. The dice will appear to accelerate toward the rear of t ...
