I
think that I have outdone myself on dumb questions and stupid scenarios here!
(My last question dealt with the
sky stairway)
This months dumb question and stupid scenario is: The earth rotates at or around 1,000 mph, correct?
Now, let's say that I invented a machine that when activated, would nullify gravity.
The Dumb Questions .. of which there are three:
1) If I were to take my 'machine' outside and flipped the anti gravity switch .. would the machine
Rocket itself into outer space?
2) If it were to
Rocket into space .. at what speed would it do so?
3) Now for a worst case scenario, (and the reason for the 1,000 mph rotation mentioned above) ..
If the anti gravity machine just hovered, slightly above the terrain when activated .. wouldn't those
skyscrapers and
mountains .. rushing at you at 1,000 mph present a problem?
I can assure you of one thing .. whichever scenario happens to be the correct one ..
I wont be 'sitting' in the machine when the switch is flipped!
I
Warned you about the stupid questions part!
