An airplane moves with the earth's rotation because the whole atmosphere rotates with the earth. (That's why you don't feel a 1,000 mph wind in your face when you stand on the equator.)

The surface of the earth moves violently in an earthquake. This occurs when there is a sudden release of energy in the earths crust. Anything from a volcano to a tectonic plate shift can cause an earthquake.
The process of evaporation moves water from the Earth's surface to the atmosphere, where it condenses into clouds. Precipitation, such as rain or snow, returns water from the atmosphere to the Earth's surface. This cycle is known as the water cycle.
Water which moves over the earths surface after having precipitated (rain, snow, etc) is known as runoff. Most rivers get the majority of their water from precipitation runoff.
An object that is stationary on the earth's surface moves in a small circle, unless it's on the equator when it moves in a great circle.

The free atmosphere refers to the layer of the Earth's atmosphere above the planetary boundary layer where air moves freely and is not influenced by the Earth's surface. It is typically above the lowest few kilometers of the atmosphere and is important for understanding atmospheric processes on a larger scale.

Wind moves across the Earth's surface due to differences in air pressure caused by the uneven heating of the Earth's surface by the sun. This leads to the movement of air from areas of high pressure to areas of low pressure, resulting in the creation of wind. The Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, also influences the direction of winds.
