How can you stay on earth when moving so fast?
Gravity.
Why cant you see the earth spinning from space?
We can't feel the earth spinning, yet it is moving fast. The size of the earth is so big it doesn't look like it's spinning. Remember it takes around 24 hours to spin once.
How come when the earth takes a spin our houses direction does not change with it?
Earth spins so fast,you don't feel it
Why dont you land in a different spot when you jump in the air since the earth is spinning so fast?
Because you are moving at the same velocity as the Earth.
Can you feel Earth's movement?
A property of matter called 'conservation of momentum'. Set spinning by chance accumulation of material, the spin will continue. "An object will continue in its state of motion or at rest, until an opposing force acts on it" -- Newton's laws. The gravity drag of the moon does slow the Earth slightly.
How fast must a projectile moving horizontally travel so that the curve it follows matches the curve of the Earth?
The answer is 8km/s

Why are you not able to observe with your senses the Earths plates are moving?
The Earth plates are constantly moving, its movement is so slow that humans can not feel it. As well with the rotation of the Earth around the solar system, constant but not notable.
Why can't feel the earth spin?
Because it goes so fast/slow ( depends how you think of it I think so fast ) that nobody can feel it, this is why in some countries it's night/day now and it's because the sun is in one place, the moon another and when the earth spins your part of the earth goes under the moon/sun.
How can they tell how fast the earth is moving through space?
There's no such thing as "motion through space". Motion must be measured relative to another object. So we just measure how fast the other object appears to be moving, and there we go.
What does it mean when a boy puts his hands on your waist and he stares into your eyes and you feel weird?
It means you dont like him enough for him to be moving so fast.
Why does gravity hold moon with the earth?
Since the earth is larger than the moon it generates a more powerful magnetic field which pulls the moon towards the earth and causes it to orbit as the earth rotates on its axis, and the reason it stays in orbit is because the moon is moving fast enough to stay in orbit rather than be pulled into the earth yet it's not moving so fast that it will leave earths orbit.
