Eath is spinning/moving round then why don't we feel it? Pl. tell me.?

Answer 1

one can only feel that thing moving which is moving in relation to us...
for example when u r sitting in a train or a plane,u cannot prcieve it moving coz for u it is not moving....however,for a person on the earth who's not moving with the same speed or in the same direction--- it is moving....
the earth is spinning very fast,but we are moving along with it,eclosed by an atmosphere....so we do not feel it

there is one more aspect: why dont we get "chakkars" if we spin around?...its much for the same reason...because we are sitting where our eyes dont have to percieve the round about motion....we are not in relative motion...this earth is very big with a hudge enclosing atmosphere...so u see...

Answer 2

Earth moves very fast. It spins (rotates) at a speed of about 1,000 miles (1.7 kilometers) per hour and orbits around the sun at a speed of about 67,000 miles (107,000 kilometers) per hour. We do not feel any of this motion because these speeds are constant. The spinning and orbital speeds of Earth stay the same so we do not feel any acceleration or deceleration. You can only feel motion if your speed changes. For example, if you are in a car which is moving at a constant speed on a smooth surface, you will not feel much motion. However, when the car accelerates or when the brakes are applied, you do feel motion.

We do not feel any of this motion because these speeds are constant. The spinning and orbital speeds of Earth stay the same so we do not feel any acceleration or deceleration. You can only feel motion if your speed changes

for example look any moving object besides you when you are also moving in the same speed

Answer 4

Be careful not to confuse physics with psychology/physiology.

We ARE always accelerating. Rotational motion implies change of direction which implies acceleration. That's the physics.

The psychology/physiology is much trickier. For instance, can you FEEL gravity? You can certainly notice it's effects when you try to act against it but your mind/body tends to ignore constants. It's one strategy for dealing with the tremendous amount of sensory input. If the earth's rotation sped up you would notice it during the change, NOT because there was acceleration where there was none before, but because of the change in acceleration..

Answer 5

i dont really remember much but i think it's because the air is moving with us. for example, in a car, when you stick your hand out the window, the air isn't moving with the car so your hand gets whipped back. don't try that at 100 mph though.

Answer 6

one can feel moving only when u have a relative motion vis-a vis the object you are looking.Since we rotate along with the earth ,there is no relative motion between the earth and us we dont feel it.

Answer 7

all are good answers. good to see that good people using this as good channel

Answer 8

inertia
