Simplified: spherical Earth, equator only. Does not model shape change, oceans, atmosphere or geology.
Equations: T = T₀/f · v = f·ω₀·R · a = (f·ω₀)²·R · g_eff = g − a. Reference: sidereal day 23.934 h, Earth radius 6,371 km.
Model assumptions
Spherical Earth, equator only. Equations documented under the lab. Earth's shape, oceans and climate responses are long-term hypotheses, not outputs of this model.
Reference: NASA planetary data; Newtonian mechanics. This is an educational model, not an ephemeris.
