Is the elevator in free fall in the magnetic or electric field also an
inertial reference system?
Luigi Fortunati
That will depend upon the corresponding momentum of the gravitons
involved in the free fall. The fabric of spacetime will bend accordingly,
to account for the apparent distortions to the so-called magnetic and
electric fields.
