Gravity vs acceleration

Canada. Fake citizenship.

>an observer in a vacuum chamber with zero outside connection would not be able to distinguish between the two, correct?

What if the chamber was YUGE!

In pic related, I could tell whether I was feeling gravity (drawn toward the center of the planet, able to orbit it if there was clearance" or accelerating (fall to the bottom of the bell jar.

t. Guy who is surprised to learn he is smarter than Einstein.

Nope, in this case, the jar is a universal reference frame. I.e. aether

If you can actually find aether, then you'll be smarter than Einstein. Remember, Sr states aether need not exist, not that it cant.

The bullet angles due to air

Einstein was wrong.

I think that it's very confused in your head : you're saying that gravity is gravitation yet you say that it only feels the same in certain circumstances, so in general gravity isn't acceleration.
I think you need to get a look at first Newton's first and second law and than take a look at Einstein relativity

>Einstein says that gravity is acceleration
What is meant by this is that the force you feel due to gravity is acceleration(Weight and so on), its not saying that planets orbit the Sun because of acceleration or anything like that.
Your MSpaint example is true as long as the bullet isn't spinning. Is because gravity is just space-time curvature that makes a spacetime vector's path look wonky to us. You see, you also have to take the shape of the gravity well into account. In the elevator example the bullet is just free falling down to a flat plain. While the bullet is moving through curved space-time. If you shoot a bullet here on earth, it would look exactly like the elevator example, because locally the bullet wouldn't move through almost any curvature.

This is mostly irrelevant and:
>The point of the equivalencr principle is, however, that gravity is geometry. That's all you should get from it.
Is just plain wrong. Equivalence principle doesn't involve the geometry in General relativity in any direct way at all.
EP just tells us that the forces on your body or any object as you are on the earth's surface are because you are being accelerated out of your free falling reference frame. Just like you are when a car is accelerating, or a rocket taking off. Remember, a free falling object in general relativity isn't actually undergoing acceleration before it is pushed on by the earth or whatever.

There you go OP, you finally got your answer.

>Would the bullet impact angle allow you to infer whether you're in a gravity well or under acceleration just by how the ballistics behave?

No.

You are wrong, you could tell the difference, at least in theory, it would work like in OP's picture. except bullets are usually spin stabilized.

You could also measure if you are in a gravity well or in an elevator by measuring tidal forces in the gravity well.
