Stop trying to sound smart when you don't know what you're saying. That was just a simple illustration. I never said it was a perfect one. A simple google search will save you from embarrassing yourself. If the earth suddenly stops, we will fly outward and not inward!

I am about going off to bed so do not wish to do lenghty writings.

I gave you an assignment. Look it up so u can learn and be able have better and more knowledgeable arguments in future.

You do not realise that the earths magnetic field from its core controls the spin of the inner and the outer core of the earth and that the inner core is spinning in an opposite direction from the outer core and that the inner core is rotating at a much faster spead than the earth itself and because its rotating in an opposite direction and is faster it is exerting a centripetal force on the earths surface?

Go and study and stop displaying your ignorance here.

AnonyNymous:
I dont know why you should expect NASA to pander to religious nuts when they're busy exploring the universe and making new discoveries. Your religion is irrelevant to science and it will fade away one day just like the ancient egyptian's own religion. They're intelligent minds that are less concerned about your opinion, and they only had to make the statement then when you people were defiling their integrity with your baseless claims and lies

Hmm, ur reference sounds like a ghost one now.

No names, no NASA page.

Hehehehe, even CNN 1996 articles are still on their website for reference sake. Yet u claimed NASA came out.

Somebody said he read it in 1997, hehehehe.

Yeah rite

Mr, you said if the earth suddenly stops then we don't fly off, we are attracted inwards, which is wrong. You should go back and ask your professors instead of repeating phrases you crammed. We fly out and not inwards. Right now as we are in Nigeria, close to the equator, we are moving at the same speed as the earth's surface here, close to 1680 km/h. If the earth suddenly stops, we fly off. that's basic knowledge. Knowledge of all these ones you're saying are not required for that basic understanding. Please consult your textbooks. Thanks.

centripetal force is irrespective of the gravitational attraction. That is the F=mRω2 F = m R ω 2 . Both of these are towards the center of the Earth. The thing to keep in mind here is that the surface of the Earth is also accelerating towards the center of the Earth.

All this sounds strange to u I know so I dont blame u. Help yourself and get updated.

The earth's rotation makes the weight of objects a little less at the equator. Gravity pulls down, but the object needs to accelerate in the downwards direction in order to stay in a circular path around the Earth's rotational axis in order to stay on the Earth's surface as it turns. The centripetal acceleration is about 3.39 cm/sec^2 at the equator which is about 0.35% the acceleration of gravity at the surface of the earth,. There is an additional lightening factor, in that the Earth bulges a little bit outwards at the equator because of its rotation, making objects on the surface just a little farther away from the center, also making them lighter.

Which was why I said less rotation more gravity because the less the rotation then the less the resistance to the magnetic core. The physics of geography is totally unknown to you so update yourself from your secondary school knowledge of physics.

He's a theist

You're just dishonestly trying to class him as atheist

Same way you did Hitler

Not this again , I've done this before . Here read and refute if you can

KingEbukaNaija:
1 . North Korea is officially an atheist state and it makes it impossible for religion to thrive - it abolished religion and imposed atheism .

2. North Korea practiced communism from 1948-2014 . Communism is a conflation of Marxism and Leninism . Now Lenin , an atheist and political theorist was highly critical of religion, saying in his book Religion

Atheism is a natural and inseparable part of Marxism, of the theory and practice of scientific socialism

This makes atheism a prerequisite for communism and the abolition of religion in a communist country inevitable .

3. North Korea tortures religious people and make them face ignominies because of their belief . They even kill the modicum of religious people in their country . North Korea's president capriciously executes people too .

4. North Korea's leader , Kim Jong-un , became president 2011 prior to the supposed end of communism in the state. This explicitly makes him an atheist - he has to be one in order to rule a communist country .

5. If Kim Jong un were religious he would have abolished stringent laws against religion . But no , he is a wicked atheist .

interesting.... d christains educating the knw it all atheists.........

3. But . . . but. . . what if it slowed down?

The speed of the earth is gotten by using this formula: v = 2πr/t
For the earth to slow down, such that a day will take 48 hours, lets calculate the speed the earth would be moving for a day to last 48 hours.

(NB: radius of the earth is 6371km)
v = (2 x 3.142 x 6371)/48
v = 834 km/h!!






DON'T TRY TO RATIONALIZE THE WORDS OF THE LORD WITH YOUR "MERE MORTAL COMPARISONS", NOT EVEN WITH MATHEMATICS.
GOD WILL SEND YOU TO HELL BECAUSE YOU KNOW MATHS BETTER THAN HE DOES AND THE DEVIL WILL LIKE THAT CUZ YOU BOTH DRINK THE SAME BRAND OF BEER.

That guy there doesn't know what he's saying. So sad that he keeps displaying his ignorance. I don't know who asked him for all those one's he's saying, but I'm tired of dragging back and forth with him. If the earth suddenly stops its rotation, we fly off. Go and ask ANY professor so that they'll clear your doubts.,

Bros, stop regurgitating things over and over to make it stick

I was not even saying its not atheist state

But you did not refute that their leader is autotheist, then said he's a megalomaniac atheist

In YOUR own words

Actually autotheism falls under theism . But the fact still remains that North Korea's president is a megalomaniacal atheist who thinks He is god . His megalomania led to that state of confusion

So, what you basically did was admit he's an autotheist BUT stylishly twisted it to megalomaniac atheist in order to make him atheist

Who else saw this




Tomorrow he might tell you. I was a born again pastor, a powerful prayer warrior and Bible scholar.

Already told my story on nairaland, no where did I mention that I was a bible fanatic.

I saw the mistake I made before I posted, after all this thread's name has "Joshua" in it. I thought it would be fun to see people's reactions.

I wasn't disappointed.

You need to pause for a second and consider this so as to help your ignorance and your display of tomfoolery.

In physics, an object's weight, FW, is defined as the earth's gravitational force on it. People commonly refer to the kilogram as a unit of weight, but the kilogram is a unit of mass, not weight. Note that an object's weight is not a fixed property of that object. Objects weigh more in some places than in others, depending on the local strength of gravity. It is their mass that always stays the same.

This is your position below

If the total force acting on an object is zero, its center of mass continues in the same state of motion.
In other words, an object initially at rest is predicted to remain at rest if the total force acting on it is zero, and an object in motion remains in motion with the same velocity in the same direction. If we observe an object moving with constant velocity along a straight line, then the total force on it must be zero.
What happens if the total force on an object is not zero? It accelerates!

This is my position below

[b]It is wrong to use cases when all the forces lie along the line of the center of mass's motion. For one thing, we can't analyze any case of horizontal motion, since any object on earth will be subject to a vertical gravitational force! For instance, when you are driving your car down a straight road, there are both horizontal forces and vertical forces. However, the vertical forces have no effect on the center of mass motion, because the road's upward force simply counteracts the earth's downward gravitational force and keeps the car from sinking into the ground.

Suppose that an object has two sets of forces acting on it, one set along the line of the object's initial motion and another set perpendicular to the first set. If both sets of forces cancel, then the object's center of mass continues in the same state of motion.

Suppose a coin is sliding to the right across a table, f, and let's choose a positive x axis that points to the right. The coin's velocity is positive, and we expect based on experience that it will slow down, i.e., its acceleration should be negative.

Although the coin's motion is purely horizontal, it feels both vertical and horizontal forces. The Earth exerts a downward gravitational force F2 on it, and the table makes an upward force F3 that prevents the coin from sinking into the wood. In fact, without these vertical forces the horizontal frictional force wouldn't exist: surfaces don't exert friction against one another unless they are being pressed together.

Although F2 and F3 contribute to the physics, they do so only indirectly. The only thing that directly relates to the acceleration along the horizontal direction is the horizontal force: a=F1/m.

The earths inner core counter acts the earths outer rotation. The inner core controls the earths magnetism at its poles and due to its faster reverse spin to the earths itself it cancels out the effect of the outer spin of the earth so in essence the earth is spinning inwards and not outwards which in itself supports gravity.[/b]

Again i tell you to go back to school. The physics of Geography is lost on you.

The attached picture is a simple illustration of how the earth spins inward and not outward. Gravity is simply the interaction of the magnetic earth with its rotation. Both properties are helping to keep the earth stable and in one singular mass.

Joshuabase:

Are you minding them? When they have nothing tangible to say the resort to basic attacks which are irrelevant to the whole argument. Whether his name was Joshua or Daniel, it doesn't change the fact that the earth could not have suddenly stopped moving.

I asked you to read up on the dynamo effect and you refused and continued displaying your secondary school physics. Consider the attached pic. North and North repel
North and south attract

The earth itself is balancing itself by giving us a north and a south Pole which are both magnetic and which naturally attract but in order for this attraction not to implode something has to counteract it and balance it out which is the earths outer spin.

The magnetic poles themselves are not self existing as their magnetic strenght is also maintained by the reverse spin of the earths inner core which is like a dynamo.

This inner core spin keeps the magnetic earth constant and gravitational pull also constant while the outer slower spin ensures we do not implode. So we are spinning inward because if the outer rotation stops then the inner rotation would pull everything to itself with no resistance so your theory of everyone flying out to space makes me laugh.

Please regurgitating means repeating information without comprehending it . I don't regurgitate and I explained perfectly what makes Kim an atheist especially point 2 and 4 .

The denseness of these guys is shocking!

4everGod:
Gravity is simply the interaction of the magnetic earth with its rotation.

With everything I've said, you still think that if the earth suddenly stops its motion, we'll be attracted inwards, and I'm telling you THAT is wrong. Its really basic, honestly.
****
By the way, in case you thought gravity was exclusive to the earth alone, you're wrong. There's a gravitational force between me and you, wherever you are in the world. As I've said, gravitational force is the force of attraction between any two bodies that have mass. There's gravitational force between me and my phone. So your definition of gravity is wrong. Its a very basic concept which you have shown that you don't have a complete understanding of.
*****
As I'm walking down the road, the vertical forces do not affect me because they've been canceled out, where you are correct. The acceleration due to gravitational interaction with me and the earth is the same with any other body on the earth. But the force isn't. If this cup on my table experiences the same force as me (700N) it would break through the table as its being violently attracted to the centre of the earth. That's if the table can't resist a force of 700N. Your understanding of the concept of gravity is flawed and that's why you're openly displaying ignorance here. Just do a simple google search of what will happen if the earth stops its rotation and then admit that you're wrong.

We are done here! Your ignorance is giving me a headache. I even used simple diagrams to help you but you still know nothing.

We are not talking about exceeding of anything! Neither are we talking about the same force being applied! You would only say this if the inner and outer earths rotation are occuring in the same direction and at the same rate.

One spins in a faster reverse to the other.

Inner core is faster and spinning east
Outer earth is slower and spinning west

The inner core is the dynamo powering our magnetic north and south and both attract.
The outer spin controls the magnetic force generated so its inward pull is regulated.

Humans do not have enough mass to possess a strong gravitational pull. More mass=stronger gravity. This is why on the moon there is less gravity, because the moon is smaller than earth. It is also why gravity is more prominent on Jupiter, because it is much larger (has more mass) than earth.

What people feel is their personal interaction with the earth and not their self generating gravity because they do not have the mass for it.

AnonyNymous:
So. . . Irritated by people here, trying to justify the 'sun stand still' story, let me give you a little science lesson .
Let's go.
******************
1. The sun stopped moving
As we now know, the sun is the centre and not the other way round, it's stationary(not exactly, because our whole solar system is moving, but relative to the earth it is), and the earth and other planets revolve around it. So the idea of the sun stopping its motion is ridiculous. But wait! The story has to be true right?? Because its in the bible! Its the BIBLE we're talking about here! So lets throw the words the other way round! The earth stopped moving!
******************
2. The earth stopped moving
Say what? Now let me tell you the implications of that. . . buckle your seatbelts. Really. Buckle them.

There are two things to keep in mind:
1. An object in motion tends to stay in motion unless acted upon by an outside force.
2. Everything that is on the surface of the Earth is also spinning with the Earth, which is why we experience day and night.

NB: If you don't completely understand that, let me make the analogy of you sitting in a moving bus. If the driver's driving at a speed of 100km/h (I hope he isn't), you're also moving with the bus at that rate. Have you ever tried coming down from a moving car? Moving at 100km/h?? Please don't. Or maybe you should, if you're a Christian. So when you're in the hospital, you'll be convinced that this story was fabricated by a lunatic.

Ok, back to the explanation. Now that you have those two points in mind, did you know the earth rotates at a speed of approximately 1670km/h?? Wow. Imagine if it stopped. Yikes. We'd all be flying off the earth at a tangent to whatever direction we were facing.

It gets even more interesting.

Among the things that would still be moving (per Newton's first law of motion) is the atmosphere. If you managed to survive flying at 1600+ km/h, you'd still experience a hurricane worse than the world has ever known. Haha. Remember, the water in the oceans would join in on the fun. For context, a category five hurricane has winds of over 249km/h. Then we have the magma inside the earth. It'd create volcanoes at every single opening possible. Not to talk of it destroying the Van Allen Radiation Belt, which would make anyone who survived die from cosmic radiation.

So. . . the earth stopped moving? Please don't say that. Please.

*****************************************
3. But . . . but. . . what if it slowed down?

The speed of the earth is gotten by using this formula: v = 2πr/t
For the earth to slow down, such that a day will take 48 hours, lets calculate the speed the earth would be moving for a day to last 48 hours.

(NB: radius of the earth is 6371km)
v = (2 x 3.142 x 6371)/48
v = 834 km/h!!

WOW. NO F*CKING DIFFERENCE
Basically, you're trying to slow the speed down to about 1/2 of the earth's normal speed.
Have you ever tried jumping from a car moving at 100km/h to a car moving at 50km/h?
Paul Blart the Mall Cop did. lol. He ended up in a hospital
Well, you get the point.
So no. Just no.

NB: Did you know, that the earth is actually slowing down? It takes a century = 100 years for the earth's time to slow down by 1.7 seconds. Thats why we don't feel it. So you can imagine what would happen if we tried to slow it down to make a day last longer by 24 whole hours. IN AN INSTANT. BRUH.

You stated two possible ways many people think God could have used to make the sun appear to stand still to Joshua. And you correctly showed that the first one makes no sense as the the sun is already fixed relative to the earth and the second would be catastrophic for the earth and its inhabitants.

Even though I agree with the op, I think your conclusion that God could not have made the sun to appear to be stationary is wrong because the options you provided are not the only ones.
Take for example, and it is important to stress that it is just my opinion, God could have used any number of ways to superimpose a reflected image of the sun to a fixed spot in the sky.
Using reflectors in space to superimpose the sun unto Joshuas location would not interfere with the earth's relative motion and its effect would be as localised as the size of the reflectors.

The inner core which rotates faster than the outside of the earth is what sustains the earth's rotation. Our point here is to make it all stop, for the sake of the sun shining on only one side.

You're not doing that, because you don't want to confirm your fears

smh! Your focus is day and night and in this context 24 hrs day right? How do we experience this? Is it based on the inner cores spin or the outer cores spin? Pray educate us.

The inner core does not sustain the earths rotation. It sustains the magnetic field and its the magnetic field that interacts with the outer earths rotation...not the inner core.

Ehen jare. Somebody that knows what he's saying. So if your god happened to provide a reflector to make the sun's light shine only on Joshua's region, its rational, if it were possible but its far fetched. Again it relies on your faith in Yahweh and not on logic.

Guy what's all this na. . . the magnetic field controls the direction of their rotation but its logical that one cannot spin without the other. That's what I meant by sustain. If the outer core stops then the inner core stops too. Abi do you want me to add the implications of only one stopping in the op, which is even far less rational? I said in my op that 'if the earth stops spinning'. The most logical way to describe that is if both stop spinning because one cannot spin without the other. Either way, saying Joshua made the sun stop by making the earth pause is rubbish.
