| Are the frames of reference for which the second empirical and the second generalized Kepler’s laws are formulated are inertial? Give examples of such frames of reference
Kepler’s second empirical law is valid for inertial reference frames. For example, if the origin is associated with the center of mass of the gravitational system. Kepler’s second generalized law is also applicable to non-inertial frames of reference. For example, for a frame of reference associated with the center of the Sun.
