In this short article, we observe that the path of particle of mass $m$ moving along $mathbf{r}= mathbf{r}(t)$ under pseudo-force $mathbf{A}(t)$, $t$ denotes the time, is given by $mathbf{r}_d= int(frac{dmathbf{r}}{dt} mathbf{A}(t)) dt +mathbf{c}$. We also observe that the effective force $mathbf{F}_e$ on that particle due to pseudo-force $mathbf{A}(t)$, is given by $ mathbf{F}_e= mathbf{F} mat...
