i didnt read sorry

me neither, not sorry

Awesome - so when an airplane is traveling in any random direction thats not with the direction of the Earth , why doesn't it have to resist the force of the air that is traveling at 1000 mph to the east?

If the Earth rotates at about 1000 mph, the air above that point of land at the surface is moving generally about 900-1100, or in other words, up to about 100 mph faster or slower than the land beneath it, depending on atmospheric conditions. So when an aircraft takes flight, it takes flight already imbued with this 1000 mph speed, and the air movement will speed/hinder the aircraft up to about 100 mph relative to the land. This is super simple stuff for people who aren't retarded.

Because we already established that the air and the earth are spinning together. Therefore the plane (which starts its journey on the surface of the earth) is also spinning with the air. Since this plane shares the same initial velocity as the air, when it takes off the main air resistance it encounters is due to any changes in the plane's velocity provided by the thrust of the engines. There can be more or less resistance depending on if there is wind, but the plane certainly does not have to battle the rotation of the atmosphere. Again, you might want to familiarize yourself with Newton's laws of motion.

Already imbued with 1000 mph speed - omg thats the dumbest explanation i ever heard. How deep will you wade in the retarded BS?

That's because you don't understand physics. It's perfectly fine for the rest of us. I'm not talking about 1000 mph speed OVER LAND, that would be 2000 mph. 1000 mph from the earth rotation and 1000 MPH speed over land.

that doesn't answer the question, your spinning your explanation, you already admitted the air is spinning because of the force of gravity and if the earth spins IN a DIRECTION - then an airplane traveling in the opposite direction would need to resist the force of this air - no airplane or engine could resist this force and still travel at 500 mph, its just pure dumbness.

pure dumbness

This is how stupid you are - so a airplane going to the east at 500 mph is really going 1500 mph and airplanes going to the west are resisting 1000 mph wind and still going 500 mph - but our eyes and every speedometer is lying to us and we need to believe your stupid theory.

um ok.



Unless you have an actual point, comments from the peanut gallery are just useless trolls
