Figure 12.3: An inertial frame and a moving frame

There is one body, body a.

There is one point of interest, point P, reached using moving frame coordiantes s.

  1. Inertial Coordinates, designated by grey X, are presented with supercript I and subscripts: 1, 2, 3
  2. Inertial frame is presented with supercript I on the base vectors and subscripts: 1, 2, 3
  3. Moving Body Coordinates, designated by grey S, are presented with supercript I and subscripts: 1, 2, 3
  4. Moving frame is presented with supercript (a) on the base vectors and subscripts: 1, 2, 3
The inertial frame connection and body frame connection - combined frame and location - are both indicated.
