gravity doesn't end anywhere it has an infinite range


So why are people shown to float in space?

If the earth is spinning at 1000 mph -that is a force to the east, and if you jump straight up , that force going to the east is still there right? You've simply overcome gravity for a split sec - so why do you land in the exact same spot? Maybe the Earth is not spinning.

refer to newton's first law and then explain what force would cause you to accelerate in a lateral direction

refer to the equation I linked and attempt to use a 9th grade understanding of mathematics

Do what I said. Go sit in a car on the freeway that's going 70 mph and throw a GI Joe in the air over and over until you've answered your own question.


yuo've actually shown exactly what I'm talking about - If your in a convertible car going 70 mph and you throw a doll into the air - it will land 100 feet behind the car. If the earth is moving at 1000 mph and you jump into the air, you land back in the same exact spot - ergo - the earth is not spinning.

Ive heard a way to invalidate this is by running both directions on a moving train.

But your logic is false - therefore the math is just an incorrect assumption.

Uh, if you're in a convertible and throw something straight up into wind that's pushing backward, then yes. That's dumb. I mean a car with the windows up. You'll see, over and over, that whatever you're throwing behaves exactly the same as it does when you aren't moving.

what? what logic is false? gravity works at an infinite range but its inversely proportional to the square of distance. What grade of school did you drop out at, be serious for a moment.
