Which effect occurs when comparing gravitational and inertial mass?

💡 Explanation

An accelerating frame of reference is locally indistinguishable from a gravitational field because of the Einstein equivalence principle; therefore an astronaut cannot tell if they are accelerating or simply experiencing gravity, rather than other phenomena arising only from gravity or inertia.
