Chapter 23 Earth Power Sources
"Success, you...... What did you say? You repeat?! ”
The last few words fell into his ears, and Hai Ge was like being hit by five thunderbolts. He began to shiver incessantly, as if the climate here was not hot but bitterly cold. A sharp headache hit, and he thought there must be a few nerves in his brain that had burst. Fear sucked the water out of his body faster than the scorching sun, and the effect of the two liters of water disappeared, and his lips dried up and turned from pale to bruised, shaking more than his body.
Success still repeats the words of the VCC: "What you are experiencing now is not an imbecile game on Earth, but a real, rehearsal of the future of Earth." ”
"So......" Haige asked, licking his lips and struggling, "and where on Earth is this wasteland where we stand?" ”
Success is really a know-it-all: "Of course, it's the place where you stayed before you walked into the illusion, Xijin City." But don't get me wrong, we're not on land, so we're still some distance from the city. This wasteland used to be the East China Sea, the route through which many rivers on earth emptied into the Pacific Ocean. When the saline water is evaporated by the intense sunlight, a large area of the continental shelf is exposed. The closest place to the land is over 200 meters high. ”
"What do you say?!!!"
Fortunately, Hai Ge was sitting on the ground, otherwise he would have fallen headlong. The wasteland used to be the sea, and he was walking on the seabed that had once been filled with seawater, as he had guessed from the remains of the creatures. But he never expected that the dead ocean was the East China Sea, and the ruined city that stood alone on the coastline was none other than Xijin City!
Thinking back to the bustling flow of people on the streets of Xijin City, as well as the public transportation network woven by colorful lights, Haige suddenly felt that what he had walked into was not a GVR illusion, but a bizarre nightmare, but this dream was successfully said to be true......
Fortunately, he did not become unresponsive due to shock, and restrained his palpitations and asked: "Tell me again, the sea is cut off, the city is destroyed, and Xijin is reduced to a dead city, how many years will such a tragedy happen?" Also, what caused this disaster? ”
The tone of success is still brisk, but the words he said are enough to break the hearts of every earth: "What we see now is the city of Xijin twenty years later. The cause of the destruction of the city is that the earth has stopped rotating, and the speed of its movement around the sun is gradually slowing down, and it is now gradually approaching zero. ”
"Twenty years?! Do you mean that in just twenty years, the most prosperous metropolis on earth will fall into this hell of fire? The demon who ignited the fire of hell turned out to be the sun that has been guarding the earth? If I didn't walk in the shadows, but really walked into the wasteland after the East China Sea dried up, would I have to be charred before I could go far? No, it's the same dry bones as sharks or sea whales! But what is the reason for all this? Hai Ge had never been so desperate, his voice getting lower and lower when he asked, and it almost became an idiot whispering in the back.
Chenggong had a strong ear and heard his question clearly, and replied: "It is not difficult for you to know the cause of the imminent destruction of the earth, the prerequisite is to understand the three concepts of the earth's operation, tidal force and tidal locking. These concepts belong to the common knowledge of space physics, do you need me to explain them to you? ”
"Poof~"
Haige almost vomited blood. Whether or not he had physics in his head, the successful way of expressing it hurt his self-esteem.
Is the hateful nanobot a nostril with his master, and he also despises himself as an ordinary earthling?
How can you endure such humiliation? In normal times, he would definitely erupt like a volcano, but at the moment he was in extreme panic and despair, and the two emotions were overwhelmingly pressed in his heart, and he couldn't let out the fire, so he could only stare at the success and roar: "Isn't it just a few space words?" Do you think it's hard to beat me? The so-called law of operation means that the earth spends a year revolving around the sun, and then every 24 hours during the year, right? Three-year-olds understand this, I don't need you to explain it! What tidal forces to talk about, this ...... Oh......"
It felt like something was stuck in my throat, and suddenly it was silent. Searching for dry thoughts, he reluctantly replied, "I guess it's the power that arises when the tide of the sea rises." But the sea water is sucked dry by the sun, and if there is no tide, where can the tidal force come from? Without tidal forces, how can the earth be tidal locked? ”
Chenggong smiled tolerantly, showing that he didn't care about his rudeness, and praised: "Your understanding of the laws of the earth's movement is quite correct, I don't need to add anything." But the relationship between tidal forces and the earth, I would like to give you a brief explanation to give you a better understanding of the causes of the earth's cataclysm and what role the sun plays in this cataclysm. ”
"Oh......"
It seems that his understanding of the concept of tides is wrong, and Haige is not convinced, but there is nowhere to vent. He doesn't read much and his knowledge is poor, if he makes a joke and doesn't know how to pretend to understand, Wedel will not only look down on him even more, but also have to laugh off his big teeth! And if you don't give a chance to explain your success, you will be even more confused about the future fate of the earth.
If you want to ask for others, you have to be compromised, and Haige can only listen carefully.
"The power of the Earth's rotation is believed by philosophers on Earth to come from the interior of the Earth, and scientists believe that it is due to the rotational inertia produced when the primordial nebula contracted, but it is not," Chenggong said. The power that propels the Earth to rotate regularly comes from a stream of charged particles of supersonic plasma ejected from the Sun's upper atmosphere, which life in the universe calls the solar wind. Usually the solar wind is persistent, and the flow of charged particles can reach a speed of 200-800 meters per second. ”
Hai Ge listened in a daze. For him, the science of the universe is really profound, but if it involves the life and death of the earth, he has to seriously figure it out. Moreover, if there was no terrible catastrophe in the near future, Wedel's purpose in sending him into the illusion would certainly not be simply to fool or despise, but to tell himself, as he said, there was something big to tell him.
The cosmic course continues, and Success says: "You would surely think that the flow of particles moving so slowly and as dense as the winds blowing on Earth is negligible in the vastness of the universe that it is impossible to pose a threat to the Earth, you are mistaken." The maximum wind force that can be measured on Earth is 32.5 meters per second, and when the solar wind is close to the Earth's atmosphere, the wind speed can remain at 350-450 kilometers per second, and the maximum speed can reach 800 kilometers per second. Such a force far beyond the landslide and tsunami is enough to propel the Earth, an asteroid with a mass of 60 trillion tons, into a rotation. ”
"But ......"
Those data were like books from heaven to Haige, but he had no difficulty understanding the part of the earth that was pushed by a force from the sun to turn around, but after understanding, new problems arose.
