>>13298080Even if a celestial body has "no" rotation, it still has gravity. The moon's rotation is severely different than the Earth's. The mass of the object is what decides the gravitational pull, yet the Sun does not exactly orbit Jupiter.
Centrifugal ("Artificial") gravity works due to the law that states. "An object in motion will stay in motion, until acted upon by an outside force," E.I., the "floor" of the centrifugal room holding you inside, not allowing you to keep moving in the direction you are moving.
Imagine you are in a car that is going up a hill, when the car first begins moving, you can feel the momentum build up. As you go up the hill, you feel like you are being pulled toward the back of the car. If you imagine going down a hill, it doesn't quite feel like the direct opposite (it does not feel like you are being dragged toward the front of the car,) and this is because the car is still moving forward enough to feel as though you are "falling."
The Earth doesn't orbit the Sun fast enough for us to feel any centrifugal force, but if it did, we would surely be cast away from the sun, the same as a yo-yo being cut from a string while you are spinning it around your hand. People on the bright side of the Earth (the side that is facing the sun,) would feel like they are getting heavier. People on the dark side of the Earth (the side that is facing away from the sun,) would feel like they are getting lighter.
