See also: Absolute space and timeThe role of fictitious forces in Newtonian mechanics is described by Tonnelat:
For Newton, the appearance of acceleration always indicates the existence of absolute motion - absolute motion of matter where real forces are concerned; absolute motion of the reference system, where so-called fictitious forces, such as inertial forces or those of Coriolis, are concerned.
