In this case, I am making a model of the earth with a tennis ball.

An analogy really.

So if i spin it slowly the water stays on

therefore this could happen on the earth too

But it has already been stated, which you agreed to, that the earth was spinning at 1000mph. That is by no means slow.

Therefore, it does not make sense.

but maybe radius of rotation AND speed matter

like the car example

Perhaps

Speed is one factor that we've discussed.

Radius of rotation.

An interesting idea.

Well did you take high school physics?

Haha

b/c there is a simple equation for calculating the acceleartion due to rotational motion

Plug it in?

You can

or you can derive it yourself with calculus

Or you can spin a known mass around in a known circle, and measure the force

So again which tennis ball example represents the earth, the slow spinning one, or the fast one?

Fast

b/c in one case the water stays, in the other case it does get flung away

why fast

earth spins once a day

How can gravity hold in entire oceans, yet birds can still fly.

The speed is what matters.

If you count the revolutions of a tennis ball, that could be a hundred days.

but the ball is much smaller than the earth

so we should spin it at a much slower speed to simulate the earth

That we'd need to experiment with.

Or we could just look up the physics of rotation

hi

Or just not drop out of high school physics

hi bust down

Hey

issah are you claiming oakheart dropped out of highschool physics?

I'd appreciate it if you didn't insinuate that we are stupid.

I'm simply investigating a potential statement.

What are claims if not backed up by evidence? That's what I've been seeing.

same here
