Thanks pop/sci/, for giving people a false understanding of pseudoscience. I thought it might be interesting to take a Facebook quiz on pseudoscience. Besides half of it being global warming melting ice sheet propaganda, I stumbled on this gem. Tell me what you think, /sci/, is someone at the North Pole really moving faster than someone at the equator?

Kek good one faggot. The surface speed of the equator is larger than that of either of poles. While they both cover the same angle in the same amount of time, the equator covers a greater distance.
Speed is given by distance over time (Which is why we measure it in kilometres or miles/hour). If the distance is larger so too will be the speed.
Git gud brainlet

That makes sense now. I couldn't tell with the lack of anti Semitic comments
wtf is angular velocity?
>>8175845
do you have any proof of that ?
>>8175681
weak bait
>>8176719
The change in angle with respect to time.

Something.... something doesn't add up

slower. The reference point is the sun, right?
