For ordinary terrestrial experiments, the observer in an inertial frame in the following cases is

  • a child revolving in a giant wheel

  • a driver in a sports car moving with a constant high speed of 200 kmh-1 on a straight rod

  • the pilot of an aeroplane which is taking off

  • a cyclist negotiating a sharp curve


B.

a driver in a sports car moving with a constant high speed of 200 kmh-1 on a straight rod

An inertial frame is a non-accelerated frame, so option (b) is correct.
