We don't feel the Earth's rotation because it occurs at a constant speed, allowing our bodies to adapt to it without sensation. Additionally, we are moving along with the Earth, so there is no relative motion to perceive. The Earth's atmosphere also rotates with it, which helps create a stable environment that doesn't disrupt our sense of motion. Finally, the vast scale of the Earth makes its rotation imperceptible in our daily experiences.

Do skyscrapers slow down earths rotation?

Skyscrapers have a negligible impact on the Earth's rotation. Their size and mass are not significant enough to affect the Earth's rotation speed or axis. Other factors like earthquakes, glaciers melting, and ocean currents play a much larger role in influencing the Earth's rotation.


Why the earth's rotation is not visible for us as the earth is rotating at a very high speed?

The earth is indeed spinning quite fast, at the equator you would effectively travel the distance of the earths circumference in 24 hours. We don't really feel it though as there is no change in speed, the speed is constant. We only really feel the effects of acceleration or deceleration. We don't feel much of a centripetal force either as the gravitational pull of the earth overwhelms this - but careful measurements will show that you are very slightly heavier at the poles when compared with the equator, because the effects of the earths spin.


What would the speed of the earths rotation be if it was on the north or south pole?

If you are at exactly the north or south pole the measurement is in Revolutions per Day And that speed is 1 Revolution Per Day.

Why you do not feel the earth rotation?

We don't feel the Earth rotating, because we're rotating with it. If it stopped or sped up, we would certainly feel it. It's like riding in a car; when the car is going straight on a smooth road at the same speed, we don't feel it; only when we turn or slow down or speed up.
