Gravity. And, we are moving right along with the surface.
Does a rock by the side of the road have momentum?
Since the Earth is rotating, and moving through space, and the rock is moving along with the Earth, then it does, but relative to the Earth, I'd say that the momentum of the rock (mass * velocity) is essentially zero.

Which wall would you slam into if the earth were to suddenly stop spinning?
The eastern wall. The Earth is spinning, moving from west to east. You are also moving from west to east, being carried along with the Earth. The Earth _CAN'T_ stop spinning, but if it could stop - and if you didn't stop with it - you would slam into whatever was east of your position.Your speed would depend on your latitude; at the equator, you would be moving about 1100 miles per hour, with a decreasing speed at higher latitudes. Most of the United States is moving between 600 and 900 miles per hour to the east, being carried along with the Earth. Good thing the atmosphere is ALSO being carried along with the Earth!

When you stand on the moon does it move?
When you stand on the Earth, Does it move??? Yes of course it does. The Earth is rotating and orbinting, but you don't feet it. It would be a similar sensation on the Moon. However, on the Moon acceleration due to gravity is less than Earth, so you would find it easier to walk/bounce.
