Question
Can simple harmonic motion take place in a noninertial frame? If yes, should the ratio of the force applied with the displacement be constant?
✓

Answer

Yes. Simple harmonic motion can take place in a non-inertial frame. However, the ratio of the force applied to the displacement cannot be constant because a non-inertial frame has some acceleration with respect to the inertial frame. Therefore, a fictitious force should be added to explain the motion.
