Of, so the Earth has gravity because of its mass, but what does the effect of the spinning of the Earth cause on gravity. Wouldn't thinking about centrifugal force make you think that the extreme speed we are spinning mixed with how far we are from center have some effect on us out on the edge?
Like for the sake of argument, what if we could somehow force the moon to start spinning rapidly on an axis. What effect if any would that have on the gravitational forces on and around the moon? Would it weaken or strengthen or have no effect at all? It seems to me that rapid spinning would have some effect?
