It is said that the earth spins at 1000 MPH in order for one revolution to occur each day (as the earth is said to be 25,000 miles in circumference. Then it is also said that the earth (solar system) travels through the universe at 60,000 mph. I am wondering "where is the breeze" ?

Good question.

The rotation speed at the poles is zero but there is always a wind factor.

Metoreolgy explains the answer.

There is primarily the matter of inertia. An object will stay in motion unless acted upon by an external force. Everything on earth stays at the same relative motion unless acted upon by an external force, including gravity which pulls everything towards the center of the planet.

It's why and how satellites stay in orbit, they're falling towards earth at the same rate they travel horizontally.

As far as the air, it travels at the same rate as the rest of the planet.

Now if the earth were to STOP rotating all of a sudden, everything would go flying at about 1000 mph.

You see, the only time motion is noticeable is when there is acceleration or deceleration, such as in a car. A person in a car traveling smoothly at 70 mph will be able to sit in their seat comfortably, whereas if that car hits a tree he'll definitely go flying out the windshield due to the instant deceleration.

LOL, why does the bowl start spinning when I run the electric mixer to make a cake? I'm not touching the bowl.

Because your batter is spinning inside the bowl, and due to friction the bowl starts to spin in the same direction. It's the force of the batter spinning and the friction between the batter and the bowl.

Now if you don't turn the motor on, it won't spin, right?
