Which risk during spacecraft maneuvers demonstrates the equivalence principle?

💡 Explanation

Because gravitational mass and inertial mass are equivalent (equivalence principle), acceleration forces are indistinguishable from gravitational forces during thrust. Therefore, trajectory errors compound if forces aren't precisely accounted for, rather than only fuel/structural concerns.
