I have used the language of accelerated frames. Yeah,
I know that almost all introductory physics books scream
and shout that accelerated frames do not exist, and
therefore centrifugal forces don't exist, but I refuse
to play along. Students have plenty of experience with
real-world cars and bicycles and playground merry-go-rounds
and other situations where it is entirely conventional
and reasonable to choose an accelerated frame.
