Chapter 111: World Map
It didn't take long for Qin An to take out the world map.
Ying Zheng and the others sat on the stone table and were already waiting anxiously.
The world map, that is the world map of the future, the map of the entire world in Qin An's mouth.
Qin An took the world map he had just drawn and said to everyone, "I'm really sorry to keep you waiting. ”
Then he placed the world map on the stone table and continued, "This is the world map. ”
"Why is it round?" The ram asked.
"That's a good question." Qin An said, "Because the ground we are standing on is spherical, we call it the earth. ”
"Sir, don't be kidding, it's been a long time since the sky is round, and you suddenly said that the ball we are standing on doesn't make people laugh off their big teeth, and how can people stand on the ball." The ram said immediately.
The others nodded their heads as well.
Meng Yi smiled: "Sir, your statement is very interesting, Mr. Gongyi, since Mr. dares to say this, there must be his basis, don't make conclusions so easily." ”
Ying Zheng bowed his head and said, "Yes, we might as well listen to what Mr. said." ”
Qin An said: "It's normal for you to have such thoughts, we are standing on the ground and the ground is round. It's actually quite simple.
When you look into the distance from the mountain, the last thing you see is the sky, not the same high, or even taller and bigger mountain, right? ”
Only then did everyone notice this thing that they would never pay attention to.
Yes, the last thing I saw was the blue sky, and nothing else, no, there was a line, a line connecting the earth and the sky.
Could it be that the ground on which we are located is really spherical and is called the Earth?
"That's not right." The ram said, "How can a man stand on the ball?" ”
Qin An smiled: "Because the earth has gravity. This idea was discovered by a foreign man named Newton.
It is also interesting to say that many people are accustomed to a phenomenon that Newton questioned, and finally discovered the conclusion of gravitation. ”
"What phenomenon?" The ram asked.
Qin An said: "A ripe apple fell to the ground, this phenomenon. ”
"Isn't that a normal thing? It's not just apples that fall to the ground when they're ripe. Many fruit trees fall to the ground when they are ripe. Said the public loser.
"Yes, I also think it's normal, where else can this ripe fruit fall if it doesn't fall to the ground?" Qin An said, "But Newton raised the question of why this apple fell to the ground, and then based on this question." Finally got the answer.
This is where gravitation comes from, and through the formula of the law of gravitation, the density of celestial bodies, the action of forces, and so on can be calculated.
This is a bit profound, and you don't understand it. Let's continue to look at our world map. Qin An said.
Everyone was stunned by what Qin An said, what gravity, Newton, they can understand every word, but they are a little confused when they are connected together.
Fortunately, Qin An shifted the topic to the world map again.
The crowd looked at the map again, no longer shocked as to why the world map was round.
It's just that the shocking thing is that the continents on this world map are all one in the east and one in the west.
"Why is it that the land on the map I see is piece-by-piece, not complete?" Ying Zheng asked,
Qin An smiled and said, "This is a long time, it has to be said from tens of millions of years ago, or hundreds of millions of dollars.
But I just know a rough idea, after all, I'm not an archaeology major. ”
Damn, does time have to start that long? Who ruled the world at that time? Three Emperors and Five Emperors?
Everyone looked at Qin An with stars in their eyes.
Qin An was full of black lines, knowing that he had to tell the story again.
"Alas, that's a long way to say, in fact, there was only one continent on the earth at the earliest time, and I don't know what happened at that time, I only know that there would be big earthquakes every once in a while."
"What is an earthquake?" Meng Yi asked.
Qin An replied casually: "It's the earth dragon turning over." After an unknown number of earthquakes, coupled with the impact of seawater, the tectonic plate drifted and finally became what it is now. ”
Then Qin An pointed to Huaxia on the map and said: "This is the current Huaxia, carrying the ancient civilization of 5,000 years in time.
At present, whether it is economic, scientific and technological or military, China is the world's leading power.
Anyone dares to invade China, whether it is a military invasion or an economic invasion, China will resolutely fight back.
Those who offend me in China will be punished even if they are far away. ”
"A good sentence, even if you offend me Huaxia, you will be punished." Ying Zheng said excitedly.
Meng Yi asked: "Sir, the world is so big, if we want to travel all over the world, I am afraid that we will not be able to do it in our lifetime, how is this world map drawn?" ”
"Haha......" Qin An smiled, "That's a good question."
This is the strength of human beings, the continuous development of technology, and now human beings can fly to the sky with tools, and even go to the moon.
Now that the country has built a space station in space, everyone says that the competition of the future is not military competition, not economic competition, but scientific and technological competition.
Whoever is strong in science and technology will become a world power, and whoever can take the lead in developing in space will be this country in the future.
Of course, I don't know who drew the world map, but I know that the world's first fleet to sail around the world was called Magellan's fleet.
This is a long story, so I won't talk about it for the time being. ”
Qin An then introduced the four oceans and seven continents, as well as some current international situations.
This greatly shocked Ying Zheng and others, it turned out that they were frogs at the bottom of the well, and the world was so big.
Ying Zheng asked: "Sir, the world is so big, I want to go to other countries such as this beautiful country, I'm afraid it's not easy." ”
"You can fly, and you can be there in a few days." Qin An said.
Plane? What's that? A flying hen or a rooster?
Qin An saw the unknown appearance of Ying Zheng and the others, and said with a wry smile: "This plane is a kind of transportation, which can fly to the sky at a very fast speed.
You don't have to look at me like that, I can't make that thing out of my own hands. ”
Everyone was immediately embarrassed. It seems that they are thinking too much, and sure enough, flying is not so simple.
Gongzi Gao said: "But I remember that Mr. once said that if you want to fly to the sky, Sir can do it." ”
"Yes, sir said that, and I remember it." Ying Zheng said immediately.
Meng Yi and the others were suddenly stunned, can they really fly into the sky? So he looked at Qin An again.
Qin An didn't think about it, and said, "That's right, it's not difficult to fly into the sky." But if you want to be at the same altitude and speed as an airplane, you can't do it. ”
