Dear student,
Pseudo force is afictitious force is an apparentforcethat acts on all masses whose motion is described using anon-inertial frame of reference, for example arotating reference frame.

The forceFdoes not arise from anyphysical interactionbetween two objects, but rather from the accelerationaof thenon-inertial reference frameitself.
