I’m not buying it. Earth spin has no effect on the surface.

If you were running due North frrom the equator, wouldn’t your path curve West? Considering Tara rotates East to West.

He’s wrong if you walk directly North, you’re not moving to the east. You’d be moving slightly west.

So if you jump up & down on the equator you are jumping east? I'm confused.

This is why launch pads are always as far south as possible. Its cheaper to launch at the equator because of the initial velocity boost you get

This is why I had to drop out of competitive astrophysics. Too many sweats.

Technically I guess you would “feel” it in the difference of daylight, temperature, etc. In other words, YES, there are HUGE differences in daily life in relation to the equator.

Okay but say you could instantly teleport from somewhere on the equator to one of the poles... wouldn't you notice that you're a little lighter on the equator due to the Centripetal force??

So if you move faster at the equator then on poles and time is relative to speed, does time run faster at the poles then at the equator?
