i think everything would collapse toward the core if it all stopped spinning… it would all crunch down to a much tighter, very spherical ball, because the spin is throwing everything outward, in addition to distorting the shape into an oblate form…
Assuming normal rate of gravity applies for that acceleration though right? So you still get flung tangent to earth surface at 1,000mph, but now also the ground is falling at the same rate as you once you start your decent? Wicked. I wonder if you make a complete orbit or not.
well, we’ve already sort of thrown “gravity” out a fucking window with the whole stopping thing… but yeah, i think we just start to spiral inward maybe…
edit: and then i think everything just stops in a big crunch
