At the equator, the earth spins at 1600 km/h. Meaning everything that isn't very well secured is turning into a projectile. That would be a today problem
to be honest there wouldn't be many living organisms still alive for it to be a problem for
The unit you are looking for is km/h. Both capitalisation and multiplication (division) matter with units.
You haven't heard about the new unit kilometerhours? The conversion is a simple formula. X = KMH, Y = km/h
(((x2)+5)-(5+(2x)))+x=y
But you understood what I said right?
(you're in science memes, you can expect to get corrected for incorrect symbols)
I think KPH is the preferred acronym. km/h is the proper unit of course.
Thank you. I live in the US, so I tried to express speed in a relatively same sense. I'll change it
Correct, because the context gave it away, the same way I Can w_rte like dis aN,d YoU wl undrstmd me.
Cool. So you get it.

Wheatley would probably approve
Oh yes, I immediately remembered portal after reading this, lol.
If the earth stopped rotating, days would be about 365x longer.
I wanted to figure out a more exact answer, but I'm hung up on the fact that the length of a day is influenced by rotation and revolution together.
I have a feeling this requires calculus. If Sir Isaac Newton were here, I think he'd know what to do.
It could be tidally locked to the sun too. Then days would truly cease to exist, you'd just have a hot side and a cold side.
It could, and eventually would, but the premise of this comic is "the earth has stopped rotating", not "the earth is now rotating at 1 revolution per year".
Tidal locking still requires the planet to be rotating
365x24=8760
Open 8760 hours a day, 7 days a week
365.25 days I believe is the better approximation because it's the rough time it takes Earth to be in the same spot - hence the leap years
you've got it. the period of the sun up/sun down cycle would be the orbital period.

Really sums up small town life.
Fake! They’d already be drowned by mountain sized tidal waves if that actually happened.
They didn't say how fast it stopped rotating and whether the moon flew out of orbit awhile back.
Touché!
But did all the objects on earth also lose their momentum? Otherwise they would be already made into paste before the waves
If it was magic and kinda just....slowed down to stop. Like a cartoon or a comic logic then yea that could work.
