Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT!

You get it wrong, it pushes equally in the opposite direction.

Here's another exemples:

When standing on the ground, you exert a force on the ground [down] and the ground exerts a force [up] on you. [that's one force on the ground, one force on you]
But that's not all.
Through the effect we call gravity, the Earth is attracting you [down] and you are attracting the Earth [up]. [that's a second force on you and a second force on the Earth]

In that case all those forces have the same size, so both you and the Earth have a net force of zero - neither you nor the Earth moves.

If you alter your stance so that you are in a squat position, it is possible for you to activate your leg muscles and exert a greater force on the Earth [down] than in the case above. The Earth will of course exert a greater force [up] on you.

Gravity has not changed, so the attracting forces mentioned above have not got any bigger.

The force attracting you down is now smaller than the force pushing you up, so the UP force wins - you accelerate up.

Note: By the time your legs are straight, you will have gained some upward velocity and will thus continue to rise with your feet leaving the ground - you jump!!
Note Also: Once your feet leave the ground there is no upward force acting on you, so the remaining force (the attraction force [down] due to gravity) is now unopposed and first stops you rising [after a short distance] then brings you back to earth - where balance can again be achieved

Okay, so basically when you jump upwards, you push the earth downwards?

That is just...wow...

Sorry but I'm going to have to stick with the bible as my proof, but thanks for teaching me more about secular science.

My only lord and master is the flying spaghetti monster.

D you have any proof of the existence of this Flying Spaghetti Monster?

You got it wrong again after I've written another paragraph explaining clearly in the simplest form? How is it that hard to understand this concept we learn in high school? http://www.centergrove.k12.in.us/cms...hird%20law.pdf


Also, Yes I do have proof for the existence of the Flying Spaghetti Monster, he gave us spaghetti and an holy biblical culinary book.

If you're exerting a downwards force on the earth, then yes, you are going to be moving the earth slightly downwards

Can I just get this straight. Are you saying that secular science says the size of the force we are exerting on the earth is the same as the size of the force that the earth is exerting on us?

If you alter your stance so that you are in a squat position, it is possible for you to activate your leg muscles and exert a greater force on the Earth [down] than in the case above. The Earth will of course exert a greater force [up] on you.

How would the earth even know when to do that? How would it know that you're a squatting person who is planning to jump, and not just a person squatting down for some other purpose that I will not name on this family forum?

Thank you for reinforcing my faith.

Earth has so much mass compared to you
that it does not move noticeably when you push it

If you step on something that has less mass than you do, like a skateboard,
you can see it being pushed back.

Very simple to understand.

So it does move downwards, but so small it's imperceptible, yeah?

Yes.

You can even test it yourself at home. If Newton's third law is correct, an object dropped will come back up in the opposite direction it came down. With gravity pulling on it, it will NOT come up with as much force as it went down.

How do we prove this? A ball dropped from a higher point will come up higher than the same object dropped from a lower point.

Re: 3 Experiments You Can Do At Home that PROVE THE EARTH IS FLAT!

yes

And as all good Christians know, hell is underneath us, so that means every time someone jumps, the earth is getting closer to hell, which is hot. That's why the earth is getting hotter! Not global warming!!!!

No. It does not move at all.

I know, I was trying to show him how silly his ideas were. If he was right, we would end up still being alive, yet being in hell, which is preposterous.

I honestly think you're either trolling or a simpleton. The earth doesn't crumble into itself when we jump. You're mythical hell have nothing do with with global warming.

Oh, yes - I didn't mean you couldn't read. It's that nutter going on about gravity and Newton's Laws of Motion who doesn't seem to understand that that has nothing to do with the topic here.

Yes it does because some god-botherer said that earth doesn't spin.

The earth isn't flat, only ignorants and idiots would believe that when there's so many evidences ( and pictures ) that it is indeed a sphere. What proofs do you have? A ages old book rewritten by some king called James?

Watch this video, I'd love to watch your expressions will watching it hahaha.

Here is what I got:
Insult
Insult
54%of people agree with us
And a bunch more insults.

Ignoring the insults, it shows that more people agree with us then don't, so in essence you proved our point, how can this many people be wrong?
