i am trying to say that i will feel my arms pulled outwards. but since I'm concidering the universe to be spinning AROUND me, the gravity would increase as one moves farther from me. if the donut rotates along my axis of rotation,it won't move outward(since it would experience equal force at...

Guys,i know that einstein denounced the mach's principle in the later years of his life. i just want to know the logical reason, according to GR, why it is wrong. (simply because it is so appealing and satisfactory.It is hard for me to accept it to be wrong in one go!).I am not able to work out...

i WILL be pulled outward along with the pole if it was universe spinning - cause gravity is universal. how can i say that i won't? gravity WOULD act on me. Tell me if I am wrong and correct me......

so does GR rejects the Mach's principle in its entirity or only in rotational motion? I have read its use in the twin paradox where the away twin experiences acceleration (which slows its clock or time) due to its movement relative to the universe while the home twin, according to the away...

so what it means is that we must consider the average distribution of mass in rotational motion. correct me if i am wrong.

But if i am not spinning and the rest of the universe is rotating, won't its gravitational influence make me feel the outward force. How can i distinguish whether i am spinning which is making me feel the force due to my acceleration or it is the universe spinning which is making me feel the...

so what you are saying is that GR proves the mach's principle wrong.

But i am NOT in an inertial frame. Since i am rotating, i am in a non inertial frame.

But can I not say the precessing of the pendulum a gravitational influence of the ratating cosmos rather than the influence of my rotation.

hello I am facing a conceptual problem in general relativity. I realized that according to einstein's theory of gravity, if I start rotating, I can say myself to be stationary and the entire cosmos revolving around me making me feel the outward force(centrefugal force in earlier view)...
