Chapter 140 Evidence of planetary rotation, of course I have it!
Under the countless gazes at the venue, Lynn stood up with a calm expression and walked towards the high platform.
"Professor, he should be able to withstand it?" Eloque said to himself in a low voice. Those wizards of the school of prophecy seem to be crowded, and they look like they want to overwhelm others.
Philip was also a little worried. He wanted to go out together just now, but Lynn pushed him back.
After seeing Lynn walking on the stage, Yolande asked impatiently.
"Mr. Lynn, I have read your theory. According to your theory, all the stars, including the continent under our feet, revolve around the sun, right?"
"To be precise, the planets in this galaxy revolve around the sun." Lynn corrected the mistakes and omissions in Yolande's words.
Yolande didn't pay attention to this difference, but said regretfully. "But I found that you seem to have overlooked a very important question!"
"What's the problem?" Lynn asked strangely.
"Since you mentioned in [Magic Daily] that the period of the continent under our feet orbiting the sun is 360 days, which is exactly one year, how should we explain the phenomenon of changing day and night? Could it be a year? It's only been a day and night?" Yolande questioned.
According to the theory of the school of prophecy, just because the sun revolves around the continent with a cycle of one day, there will be sun rise and moon set, day and night.
Lin En was very speechless. He thought that Yolande was going to say something high-end, so he explained in a dumbfounding manner.
"It's very simple. It's because the planet under our feet is not only revolving around the stars, but also rotating non-stop. This is why we see the alternation of day and night."
Lin En stretched out his hand and created two water clusters of different sizes in the void, allowing the small one to rotate around the large one while rotating. Each rotation represents the alternation of day and night.
"Autorotation?" Yolande was taken aback for a moment. He didn't expect Lynn to come up with such an explanation, but he quickly laughed.
"I have to say that your theory is very interesting, but if, as you said, the continent under our feet is constantly rotating, even moving around the sun, then why aren't we just thrown out? "
Yolande accentuated his tone a bit, and his voice kept echoing in the auditorium.
All the wizards present were talking a lot, and even the wizards who originally supported the planetary theory couldn't help but start to waver under such sharp questioning.
After all, Yolande's words are easy to imagine. For example, if you put a rice grain on a ball and then turn the ball rapidly, the rice grains on it will inevitably be thrown out.
What's more, the continent under their feet is so huge, once it moves, it will inevitably produce a very terrifying force. Even if they are lucky not to be thrown out, they will definitely be able to perceive it!
Philip was anxious like an ant on a hot pot, as if he was the one being targeted on the stage.
Lin En's expression remained unchanged, and he asked with a smile. "You should have made a carriage, Mr. Yolande."
"Why are you asking this?" Yolande said hesitantly.
Lynn did not answer but turned to look at the wizards in the seminar, "I think everyone should have noticed that when the carriage is driving, we can only feel it most clearly when it starts and ends. When the body is swaying back and forth, the rest of the time, what we feel most is the bumpy feeling caused by the carriage driving over the uneven road."
"That's because we are in the carriage when we are exercising. Based on friction, we move with the carriage. Of course, because the speed of the carriage varies from time to time, it is not intuitive enough..." Lynn turned his head suddenly while talking Looking at several great wizards. "I think this point, Master Raphael and Master August who have been on the airship should have more experience!"
Everyone on the field immediately cast their gazes on Raphael and August. After a while of contemplation, the two nodded together.
The airship is different from the carriage. It is completely floating. After adding the windproof magic circle, it drives very smoothly. They can hardly feel that they are moving fast on it.
"The same is true for this planet! Previous free-fall experiments have proved that the resistance we feel is based on elements. Under the effect of gravitational constraints, all elements and substances change their positions along with the rotation of the planet, so Of course we can't feel that we are moving, if one day it suddenly stops spinning, then we will probably all fly out..." Lynn said jokingly.
"False!" Beside Yolande, a red-haired witch yelled loudly, interrupting Lynn's words. "Master Harrov once flew to the top of the world. If the continent under our feet had really rotated again, after such a long time, Lord Harrov should have flown to other places along with the rotation of the continent..."
"Gravity has a huge range of influence, ma'am, it's much bigger than you can imagine. It's so big that even if we ascend to an altitude of hundreds of thousands of meters, we can't escape its control!" Lynn said lightly, and then Looking at the crowd, he said loudly.
"Just as we cannot perceive that the planet under our feet is round, the rotation speed of the planet is very slow compared to its huge size, and we are as small as dust, like ants building holes in the hills, for it But this hill is the whole world."
The discussion in the hall became more and more intense, and some people very much recognized Lynn's planetary rotation theory, after all, it could well explain the problem of the change of day and night.
However, more people still have deep doubts. According to Lynn, because they follow the planet to rotate, so they can't perceive that they are also rotating?
This is outrageous!
Not magic at all!
"What about the evidence? What evidence do you have to prove that the continent under our feet is rotating? All this is nothing more than your fantasy!" Yolande sneered sharply. "According to your theory, don't we also fly along this continent when we sleep at night..."
"Then when you were in the carriage, did you move by yourself?" Lynn asked amusedly.
"Of course it is..." Yolande paused for a moment. He wanted to say that he didn't move, but after thinking about it carefully, he was indeed moving.
This contradictory feeling made Yolande, who didn't know what a frame of reference was, confused. In the end, he could only conclude that he didn't move, and that the carriage moved him.
But this conclusion undoubtedly testified to Lynn's rotation theory. Yolande struggled for a long time, but he still didn't speak.
"As for the evidence of the planet's rotation, of course I have it!" Lynn ignored Yolande who was in a tangle, but looked at the seat of the Iyeta School and said.
"Jonnie, Arlok, Pierce, bring up all the things you prepared!"
