for some reason people have a very hard time grasping the concept of rotational speeds and how the distance from the center of that orbit can change the speed at which that point is traveling.
the tip of the second hand on a watch moves MUCH faster than the part of the hand that is closest to the center...
but that just doesn't make sense to people for some reason.
"how can different parts of the same thing be moving at different speeds"?
it's a hard one to get them to grasp, but once they do you can see that lightbulb light up.
