Dear readers, thank you for reading my article in your busy schedule, this is an affirmation of my efforts, but also the motivation to continue to create, I would like to extend my most sincere respect to you, I hope to get one of you"Attention"Thank you!
The results will be catastrophic. The perfect scene for a post-apocalyptic horror movie. Especially for those who were able to survive.
In fact, that's the point. When you're sitting in front of a computer, watching TV, sleeping, or reading a book, you may feel like you're motionless and resting. If you think so, then you're wrong.
In fact, you rotate with the planets. You don't feel the movement because everything around you is moving at the same speed.
To illustrate this effect, imagine closing your eyes on an airplane. As long as there's no acceleration, braking, or bumps, you won't feel like you're moving at all. It's the same here.
At the equator, the Earth rotates at a speed of about 1674 km-h. The value may vary depending on the latitude. This means that you are moving at the same speed.
If the earth suddenly and unexpectedly stops turning, and you are not wearing a seatbelt and not fastening to a concrete wall, you will inevitably be pulled away from your place of residence and move half a kilometer in a second, provided that: there are no obstacles in your way.
If you are in a room and the earth suddenly stops moving, you will definitely be jerked up from where it came to be and with incredible force (half a kilometer per second!! Hit the wall. You just need to coat it with a thin layer.
It gets so messy that you don't even understand what's going on.
If the Earth suddenly stops rotating, the atmosphere does not stop with it. This will trigger a violent gust of wind with a speed of about 1674 km/h, which is equivalent to the speed of the Earth's rotation. And, perhaps, some kind of erosion of the earth's crust.
Sudden stops have the same effect as emergency braking of a moving car. You (and any other object) will fly at the speed of the Earth's rotation. It's a very high speed, but not enough to launch into space, so none of us will fly there.
The earth will become a perfect sphere because the rotation of the earth creates a convex surface. This uplift is along the equator, and it is because of this uplift that today's oceans are formed. If there were no bulges and the Earth was a perfect sphere, the oceans would redistribute, resulting in the formation of a huge supercontinent around the equator, and the North and South Poles would become oceans.
But since the Earth will only stop rotating for one second, the bulge won't disappear completely until the Earth starts rotating again. However, the effect is enough to cause a massive flood (actually a huge tsunami), but only for 1 second, after which the bulge will reappear and the flood waters will recede (causing more chaos).
The day will be extended by 1 second. For those who survived.
That's what I thought. What do you say?
