Thank you again Jano L! After digging deeper into the subject myself, I found out that basically the same thing has been discussed here before, with very many posts: https://www.physicsforums.com/showthread.php?t=423654 It seems even the senior commentors have quite mixed understanding of...

Thanks Jano L, but: that's what I thought at first too. But looking at the ideal gas equations, your answer looks impossible. The gas occupying uniform space, having different pressures at different physical coordinates, must have also different temperatures. This is, as I understand, exactly...

What happens to gas temperature in different parts of closed chamber (let's say for arguments sake, a closed cylinder made out of material that transduces heat minimally) that is rotated centrifugally so, that one end of the chamber experiences much greater centrifugal acceleration than the...
