- Tidal effect inside accelerating cylinder re: equivalence not so equivalent?
Does a sort of virtual tidal effect exist inside an accelerating body (space ship) similar to the way the tidal effect is present while rest on a massive body? Or could an accurate enough 'thought experiment' measuring device figure out if it's in an accelerating ship or resting on a planet, by measuring tidal effect or no effect?
