Plus, concrete is super dirty to produce and actually not so dense.

You’re just proving my point 😘 Take care 🍀

Of course I knew what they meant, since I explained why I did not agree with their reasoning (point B in my answer).

Since this moment, you 2 have only been aggressive without contributing to the exchange.

I also tried to diffuse the emotions with humor (“Tough crowd”, as if it was a comedy show). I’ve explained -again- why I didn’t agree with their reasoning to go back to the topic.

And your answer double downs on agressivity… I’m out ✌️

In any case, you seem to have a lot of anger to pick up that kind of fight. Take care, buddy 🍀

Wow! Tough crowd. Seriously, at least I explained my reasoning for why hurricanes do not cross the equator. All they did was make either wrong or poorly formulated claims without any kind of explanation, and then throw insults.

Saying that “The Earth spins faster” makes no sense, especially in this context: why would the equator spin significantly faster than 100km away from it?!? And why would this negligible speed difference prevent hurricane from crossing that line?

If you want to correct someone, at least do it right.

Considering that I did not use bullet points, I guess you are talking about yourself 🤣

A) The Earth spins at the same speed. What you are talking about is the tangential speed.

B) The tangential speed is not much faster at the equator than 100km South or North of it.

C) The speed difference would not explain why they don’t cross the equator. It may explain (partially) why there are no hurricanes further away from the equator.

I’m guessing it’s because they rotate in different direction in the northern and Southern hemisphere.

So crossing would imply switching direction, which would require to put that energy “somewhere” and it’s physically not possible.
