Acceleration setback inertia

[oneighty]

During a spaceship launch from earth orbit at a constant rate of acceleration to 'x' speed at what point does setback to the nuclear components of both the space ship and human passengers reach equilibrium and inertia is constant.


Or do they assuming constant acceleration is maintained.

Night musings from 180 based on hmm well based on nothing I guess.

Sometimes it hurts to think, but it is free.

Haha--180

1. Looks like the scientists have all gone to sleep for the night

2. You have not gone to bed.

I have not. But then I am a muser not a scientist.

But it is fun to muse.

3. You start many interesting threads

man learns from other men, too :)

4. While the system is accelerating it is a non-inertial framework.

So, there is no "constant inertia" as long as it's accelerating. Assuming I understand what you mean by "constant inertia."

5. Bad wording

on my part. Once acceleration reaches zero then inertia of the space ship and contents would continue until outside forces (Gravity? Friction?) stops it.

In 'warp speed' of Science Fiction wherein the space ship and contents instantly reaches or exceeds the speed of light one would have to imagine that the accelerating force is acting simultaneously on each and every sub atomic particle on and in the space craft.

Other wise they would be likened onto the astronaut falling into a black hole which might take forever?
