Q. A reference frame attached to the earth:

AFMCAFMC 2006

Solution:

The frame of reference which are at rest or in uniform motion are called inertial frames while frames which are accelerated with respect to each other are non-inertial frames. Spinning or rotating frames are accelerated frames, hence these are non-inertial frames.
