What is the speed (in m/s) of the Galapagos Islands, on the earth's equator, due to our planet's spin on its axis? What is the earth's speed (m/s) due to its rotation around the sun? If light would bend around the curvature of the earth (which it does not), how many times would a light beam go around the equator in one second?
