| It has the merit of brevity, and also of recalling, like the names of the electrical units, the work of a great pioneer in the experimental investigation of the subject |
The first "centrifugal acceleration" term depends only on the radial position r and not the velocity of our object, the second "Coriolis acceleration" term depends only on the object's velocity in the rotating frame vrot but not its position, and the third "Euler acceleration" term depends only on position and the rate of change of the frame's angular velocity.
