What you probably don't understand is that the earth rotates
361� in 24 hours--Look up sidereal day.

Well i did Sam it is the time it takes for the Earth to complete one
rotation relative to the vernal equinox. And i guess that would be
relative a fix star, so you say basicly that absolute rotation is
relative fixed stars in the sky, i will buy that when you propose a
force from those stars that is able to create the centripetal and
centrifugal forces that a disc that spin relative them will produce.

So what is this farfield force called, it can not be gravitation that
name is already taken and it diminish by the inverse square law and
those stars to far away to be responsible for your *****dreamed
up****** centrifugal and centripetal forces in deep space.

So why does your dreamed up centrifugal and centripetal forces care
about the rotation versus the siderial day.

Maybe time to pondering...............

The Earth's angular velocity = 0.72921158553 X 10**-4 Rad/s
which comes out to be 86164.0905 seconds for a 2π (360°) rotation
and 239.344696 seconds for every 1° or rotation.

Is that angular velocity versus what sun fixed stars........ or what?
Is it also the absolute rotation?
