It most certainly answers the question, you just lack the brainpower to understand it.

Again, the air is not spinning because of gravity, but because of the kinetic energy imparted to it by the rotation of the earth. Gravity is just what keeps it from floating into space.

Why is this so hard for you to understand? Most kids can grasp Newton's laws before they get their first pubic hair.

@ bold: relative to the central axis of the Earth's rotation, yes, it is going 1500 mph, while registering 500 mph air speed.

@ red: no, it isn't "resisting 1000 mph wind," but it is moving 500 mph relative to the central axis of Earth's rotation.

So you just saiid that the air sping with the earth because of gravity?



So know your backtracking and saying it doesnt spin at 1000 mph ?

Ok - thats say that was true - so if the air doesn't spinning with the earth - you could just hop on a hot air balloon, float up for a 6 hours and travel a 1/4 way around the Earth, but that doesn't happen does it.

This ball Earth theory of your has alot of holes to it really.

Airplane speedometer are all fake, um ok.

Air speed and speed relative to a fixed point are not the same thing.

you assume the earth is moving but its clearly not, the air cannot both be moving with the Earth to allow balloons to not travel
but not moving to allow airplane travel, no man made engine can resist a force of 1000 mph

when your lies you catch up to your crazy logic, it reminds me of this classic scene:

There has been a new discovery, earth is actually hollow, so flat or globe doesn't matter.

Nice, you have nothing else to do except feign poor reading comprehension by claiming I said the exact opposite of what I said.

Troll defeated, 5-0 gg ez no re

People who believe the earth is flat are very smart.

So you just claimed the air is moving at 1000 mph and then backtracked to say its not moving at 1000mph and when you realize that both answer reveal the flat earth truth - you switch again to a strawmanning tactic.

gg - Flat Earth proved.

Thread can be close now that there is nothing left to do but serious crying.
