If the Earth Were Round the Wind Would Never Stop
Wind is a perfect example of why the earth cant be round. Even by your own spherist definitions wind should be impossible. Although wrong about this and most other ideas, Newton proposed that objects in motion stay in motion unless acted upon by a force. Wind is an object that it is composed of small particles. If the world were round and contained by an atmosphere, once a small breeze started it would gain manifold force until it was blowing at least as fast as the speed you believe the earth rotates. It would just keep blowing round and round forever. This would turn the surface of your ball into a giant maelstrom as wind tore away the very face of the "globe" like string cheese.
Edit: Friction would be irrelevant, as the winds would be going far faster than the earth's rotational base speed of 1000mph.

4 RepliesEdited by Kirby235711: 3/25/2016 5:46:32 PMYou said that the Earth is shaped like a contact lens, so, following your logic, why wouldn't the wind just follow the outer curve and become a cyclone? Czechmate.

Ok now you're trolling is wearing thin. Everyone knows air movement occurs due to uneven heating of a surface. That's why you get warm and cold fronts and currents. Mind you this can happen on a surface that's flat or spherical. As long as there is disparity air will keep moving in an attempt to gain equilibrium. Seriously one of your weaker attempts at trolling. Try harder man.

If the earth was flat, day and night cycles wouldn't be a thing, and weather seasons too wouldn't be possible. But unfortunately for you, they do happen.

Why is this becoming a popular thing to do? We literally saw the shape of the planet from SPACE. FREAKING SPACE.

That's not how wind works, bad b8.

Wind is simply air particles moving faster than others. So shut up.

You're embarrassing yourself. For your own sake, just stop.

I realize this is a waste of time, but what the heck. The surface of the Earth only moves at 1000 mph at the equator. As you move toward either pole, the velocity decreases. If you go to the true North or South Pole, you can sit on it and spin around once per 23 hours and 56 minutes. This differential velocity causes hurricanes and typhoons to spin in different directions in the northern and Southern Hemispheres.

Riddle me this: Why can I get in a plane fly in any direction long enough and get back to where I started? You wouldn't be able to do that if the earth was flat. Unless of course we've developed teleportation that has been hidden from us and used without our knowledge. I asked this on your earlier post but you ignored it because your petty brain can't bullshit up an answer.
