It can only be called simulated gravity...

Gravity, by definition is merely a force...which applies to ALL mass and
this force is caused by mass... NOT by centrifugal means... i.e.
spinning a container...

Same rules apply to both however....in this scenario...

Thanks for responding with your thoughts....
