    Confusion on Einstein's Continuously Accelerating Rocket

    I was actually trying to imply that the rate of shift would be different when measured from floor to half way point, than when measure from half way point to ceiling. At least on Earth. Given given my (apparently mistaken?) understanding that g-forces would be uniform throughout the rocket, I...

    I’ve been thinking about Einstein’s gedankenexperiment (because I’m meta like that) regarding the sealed room on Earth, and the sealed room on a steadily accelerating rocket. And the result of this thought process is… I’m confused, probably because I do not correctly understand the parameters...
