The earth rotates, Why Don't You Feel Its Movement?

My mom didn't understand the reason for my smile when she told me to stop being lazy, get up and do something! I did not want to tell her that I am already doing something, I walk every hour 1000 miles, she will not understand my humor, and if you do not understand what I mean also my reader friend, I will explain to you how I walk this distance on the surface of the earth, so that you do not count me from the insane, and I will tell you about the relationship of this By answering the question that some people still question today, is the Earth already spinning?

We humans do not feel the speed of the Earth's rotation, but naturally and after knowing this information to ask, why do we not feel nauseous or dizzy as if we turned around ourselves!

Imagine yourself as if you were on a fast train. During being on the train and looking out of the net, you will feel as if everything around you is in motion while you are not moving. This is what scientists call “reference frames”, and the reference frames are points of view. The train on the world moves around you, but for the person waiting on the boarding pass, the train is what moves.

This is very similar to the Earth, because through the reference frame of the earth, you will not feel that the earth rotates, while if you were watching the Earth through the frame of reference of space you will immediately notice the rotation of the Earth.

But as if you were on board, you will not know what is really happening outside, there is no air that rushes on your face and moves your hair, for example, to make you realize the speed with which the train moves, because the air within the train is moving at the same speed as you, and this is similar to the atmosphere surrounding the earth that moves at the same speed Completely.

Generally, there is only difference between the train and the ground, when the train slows or increases its speed, we feel it through the resulting force that affects our bodies, and this is because of a simple physical law that says:

Strength = mass x acceleration

The mass here is our bodies, and while the train moves at a constant speed, the acceleration here is constant, so the result of the forces affecting our bodies is equal to zero, i.e. we will not feel anything, while if its acceleration increases, we will feel a force that affects our bodies, and if you are standing during the acceleration process, you may end up falling Ground due to the resulting strength that will affect your body.

Since most trains do not maintain a steady speed while on the move, you will realize that you are in motion, but when you compare the matter with the land that does not increase or never slow down, you will inevitably maintain your feeling that you are steady and do not move, imagine if the earth changes its speed every moment You will feel exactly as if you are on the train, and that's not a good thing.

Imagine if the speed of the earth increased, inevitably life will change as you know it, the level of sea water will increase near the equator and the percentage of water at the poles of the earth will decrease and you will migrate towards the equator, and your weight will decrease, because of the changing values ​​of the equation between the centrifugal force that tries to keep us from the planet and the strength The gravity exceeds it and holds us in place. If the Earth’s velocity increases, the effect of the centrifugal force will increase and our weight will decrease accordingly.

Generally, do not lose sight of it often, this will not happen soon, and talking about the speed of the Earth's rotation, it will not slow down and its speed will not increase suddenly and therefore you will never feel in motion.
