If the earth stopped spinning for 1 second you would likely feel a sudden jolt and move forward or sideways for the 1 second and then not feel anything after that.
If the earth stops spinning humans and other things would likely go sliding but not flying as the gravity would still keep you held towards the ground but you might fly into the air but could depending on the circumstances.
Other things might also go sliding towards you as well.
If the earth stopped spinning you would usually feel it and maybe able prevent yourself from sliding and it would likely feel like being in a vehicle and then suddenly coming to a stop as you would fly forward.
If the Earth stops spinning the days would be very long and the nights would last half a year each.
Massive changes in weather patterns, potential loss of the earths magnetic field and significant ocean migration towards the poles would also occur and make large parts of the planet earth uninhabitable.
One side of the earth would experience constant daylight and the other side would experience constant night which would lead to extreme variations in temperature between the 2 hemispheres.
Also if the earth stops spinning humans and other things would likely go sliding but not flying as the gravity would still keep you held towards the ground.
The Earth goes on spinning due to inertia and because there's no significant force to stop it from spinning.
The conservation of angular momentum is what is causing the Earth to spin as the earth and solar system formed from a collapsing cloud of dust and gas.
The material then naturally began to rotate, and as it condensed into planets including earth.
The rotation of the earth continued due to inertia with no significant force to stop it.
If the earth stood still, the oceans would gradually migrate toward the poles and cause land in the equatorial region to emerge.
This would eventually result in a huge equatorial megacontinent and two large polar oceans.
The reason why humans can't feel the earth spinning even though it's spinning at 1000 mph is because of gravity, not being able to detect relative motion and constant speed.
Gravity holds us and everything firmly to earth and prevents us from feeling the spin,
Everything around us is also moving with the earth so there's no relative movement to detect and because the earth is at a constant speed of rotation we don't feel the motion.
Because we're all spinning around at the same speed we can't feel the motion of the earth spinning.
Earth is not the only planet that spins.
All planets in the solar system spin on their axis which includes, Neptune, Uranus, Saturn, Jupiter, Mars and Mercury but some of the planets spin much slower than earth or in a different direction than earth such as Venus.
Venus rotates and spins backwards unlike other planets.
The Earth is spinning as fast as 1,000 mph or miles per hour at the equator.
However earth actually orbits around the sun at a speed of around 67,000 miles per hour and at the same time the earth spins on it's axis at around 1,000 miles per hour.
Earth's exact mass is around 5.9722 x 10^24 kilograms.
The earth weighs around 13,170,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 pounds (or 1.3 x 10^25 pounds) or 13 septillion lbs.
Earth is the planet that we are living on and is the third planet from the sun.
The planet earth is the only known celestial body to support life.
Earth is also distinguished by it's presence of liquid water on the surface and a diverse ecosystem across earths lands and oceans.
The planet earth is also the 5th largest planet in the solar system.
Earth is a rocky, terrestrial planet and it has a solid and active surface with mountains, valleys, canyons, plains and so much more.
Earth is special because it is an ocean planet.
Water covers 70% of Earth's surface.
All of the planets, except for Earth, were named after Greek and Roman gods and godesses.
The name Earth is an English/German name which simply means the ground.
It comes from the Old English words 'eor(th)e' and 'ertha'. In German it is 'erde'.
Some amazing facts about earth include.
Earth isn't actually round although it's not flat either.
The true shape of the Earth is an oblate spheroid and is almost spherical, but slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator.
Coral reefs are Earth's largest living structure.
Earth has a squishy interior.
Antarctica is home to the largest ice sheet on Earth.
The Moon is drifting away from Earth.
Atacama is the driest place on Earth.
Earth's magnetic pole is creeping westward.
