Equivalence Principle Question

[Charlie G]

I was wondering whether or not astronauts who weighed differently on Earth would weigh differently on a spaceship accelerating to simulate gravity. Do the astronauts who have more mass experience a greater force in the ship like the would on Earth or does each astronaut weigh the same on the ship?

Hi Charlie,
Uniform acceleration is just like gravity. F=Ma = Mg = W.
So when they are accelerated at the same rate, they feel a different force just like within gravity.

Lol I can't believe I overlooked something so simple, it wasn't even that long ago that in science we went over that very same equation.
