Title: Why can't they pass the equator?
Post by: sircool on January 14, 2016, 01:41:06 AM
This Q is for all the flatliners out there, physics on a globe already explained this phenomenon decades ago. So I know the answer if we accept earth is a rotating planet.
 So what exactly is causing rotating storm systems to never pass the equatorial line around the planet? Oh wait, "equatorial" line around the "planet" cause I know your church is against such logic.

It's because of the UA (Universal Acceleration).
Measurements showed that the UA is not evenly distributed. The more far you get away from an imagined "equatorial line", the lower is the power of the UA.
Rotating Storms move away from this "equatorial line" because of the higher acceleration towards the "poles".

I used words like "equatorial line" and "poles", so you can better imagine what i'm explaining.

They would movs in rather straight lines. But they are curved. Why?

That doesn't explain the direction storms rotate either.

Correct! If you're only looking at the acceleration because of the UA they would travel in straight lines. Now look at their rotation, that is the reason why they're traveling in curved lines. It's the spinning which causes the curve they are traveling.

To understand it easier:

Can I ask for clarification, here?
I understand the measurements referring to, but how can acceleration be different at different points of an object? Surely it would just tear itself apart?

So if I left a drone flying, it would be pushed north by the UA?

Yes absoulte correct! But don't bring it in line with the perceived gravitational pull! Then you compensate the pull towards the "north pole".

It will move slowly towards the "north pole"

There is no evidence that there isn't a huge invisible undetectable wall in the sky. Because there is no evidence it isn't there, some flat earthers accept it as fact. See also: Russell's Teapot.

Oh, come off it!
Now, I know that Jack has said that do to relativity higher altitudes may experience a UA lower than at sea level.  He has never, however, attempted to indicated that this reduction would correlate with measured lower gravity at higher altitudes.

You time might be better spent explaining the numerous anomalies in the Flat Earth model with its sun, moon, planets rotating above.  There are simply too many discrepancies in this to go into here, look at:
and the list goes on and on!

To understand it easier:
  • Start spinning a toy-spin-top
  • Push it forward in any direction
  • See how it travels a curve because of its spinning
This won't work. They would curve in opposite directions if the "push" is ~uniform and ~similar. But they usually go west, then curve to east.

Also, you still have to explain why they rotate in opposite direcions on different hemispheres.

I asked that question in seperate threath. But it was ignored:
