Galileo made the assumption when he argued for the equivalence of the
experience being below deck on ship at rest vs below deck on ship in
uniform motion. (see passage below). By omitting the rotation of the Earth,
Galileo was able to formulate a practical rule. Newton later elevated the
rule into

WWII Admiral Willis Lee was one of the world's top experts in artillery. He
would calculate battleship gun trajectories including the effects of the
earth's rotation. He would include so many

Hi,

You also need to take into consideration that objects in motion relative to the
Earth's surface will experience more or
less centrifugal force depending on their direction of motion relative to the
rotation of the
Hey vorts, this is a question about weight. No advanced physics is
involved.
Suppose you have a surface with built in sensors so it will tell you the
weight of an object placed anywhere on it.
Assume the surface is flat and level and the acceleration due to gravity is
everywhere constant.
Will the
