Abstract

The spinning ball experiment consists of the observation of the interaction of gravitational and inertia forces on a rotating material object. In the interaction of material force on a rotating physical object, four experiments are possible: # Inertial forces acting on non-rotating material objects in field-free space

  1. Inertial forces acting on rotating material objects in field-free space
  2. Inertial forces acting on non-rotating material objects in a gravitational field
  3. Inertial forces acting on rotating material objects in a gravitational field
