4.II.9A
The position and velocity of a particle of mass are measured in a frame which rotates at constant angular velocity with respect to an inertial frame. Write down the equation of motion of the particle under a force .
Find the motion of the particle in coordinates with initial condition
where . Show that the particle has a maximum speed at , and find this speed.
[Hint: you may find it useful to consider the combination .]
