Put a flat earthier into space

I'm really interested though as you said mine was representative but that contradicts the sea depths, also you keep saying we aren't seeing it correctly so it would be great to see what you mean.

So how do you explain the movements of a foucault pendulum on your world?

The pendulum simply moves around on a pivot/bearing as it swings over a made up circular area under it.

I'll tell you what doesn't happen.
It doesn't just swing backwards and forwards whist the floor rotates under it.

This is where it falls apart

House!

Then the inner intersections are not and cannot ever be a true right angle.

Got one in the garage have you?

It wouldn't make any difference if I did. The floor would not rotate under it.

Draw the two lines, they're at a right angle. Then then lay the circle over them. They're still at a right angle. The angle of two, three, four or a dozen lines can all be at right angle or 45° angles. This is something bairns do at about 7 years old. "Find all the right angles in this picture"

But it moves completely differently at the poles compared to the equator, how does that work in your world?

But you do accept the right angle as shown in the diagram though yes?

To add to the list of revelations in this thread we can now have right angles can't exist if theyre touching another shape.

 

[DaveH]

Why don’t you accept it?
What is incorrect about the diagram?

Remember what I said a while ago about conspiracy theorists seeing themselves as a hero type and every post being designed to come back with attention and questions "tell me more, let me ask you something wise sage"? Look at the last 4 pages (actually the last 206 pages), almost every single post gets people coming back asking for more. It elevates the internal hero status of the conspiracy theorist and keeps them feeling special.

Wow. I have said many times on these threads "this is basic geometry" but wow, the lack of understanding of a circle and two lines is shocking.

His deflections are getting more insane by the day and now he’s refuting the most basic things put to him

He understands it. Acts like it doesn't make sense comes back with several questions. Outright denial. Look at the post where he said "explain it" about half a dozen times. Putting the focus elsewhere.

You either accept that the lines are a right angle or not. Going round the houses to avoid answering. It's strange behaviour.

 

[Nukehasslefan]

Draw the two lines, they're at a right angle.

How do you draw two lines so they're at a right angle?

Then then lay the circle over them. They're still at a right angle.

How will the circle show a right angle?

The angle of two, three, four or a dozen lines can all be at right angle or 45° angles. This is something bairns do at about 7 years old. "Find all the right angles in this picture"

What is a right angle?

But it moves completely differently at the poles compared to the equator, how does that work in your world?

Theoretically speaking it should only work at your so called poles in the way we're told about it.

But you do accept the right angle as shown in the diagram though yes?

No.

No.

Why?
Do you accept a right angle exists, not just here but in general?

That depends on what is supposed to be understood as a reality.
I'm trying to find this out but keep getting stuff like this.

What basic things.
Explain the reality. Show me the ease of which you're arguing for this set up.

No.

1. You can use a protractor and a pencil

2. The circle doesn't show a right angle

3. An angle of 90° between two lines

4. Not my conversation

5. Why don't you accept that the two straight lines are at a right angle to each other?

I accept it, of course but I'm asking you to show me the right angle on your circle and how you know it to be.

The basics of that diagram mate
no idea what you mean by your second sentence.

Do you accept if I draw two straight lines intersecting it does not necessarily make a right angle?

 

[What A Waster]

Yes. Absolutely.

 

[Nukehasslefan]

The basics of that diagram mate
no idea what you mean by your second sentence.

Your central point in the circle and your line through it to the tangent line external to it.
what is your normal and how does the intersection make a right angle from that circle and within?

Yes. Absolutely.

What is a right angle?

 

[DPTT]

I accept it, of course but I'm asking you to show me the right angle on your circle and how you know it to be.

Well that’s good
So you’ve agreed that everything on that diagram is correct.
The relevance am sure will be highlighted by the chap who originally asked the question
