Let's take the typical problem of a ball dropped in a tunnel that goes from one pole to another of the earth (assuming the earth as an sphere etc). If we took into account that the earth is also spinning at a constant velocity, will this change the result in some way?
I think it won't affect in any way since it looks like the angular velocity of the earth will point in the same direction as the position and velocity of the ball, so there won't be any coriolis effect, nor centrifugal acceleration. But I'm not completely sure desu.
