I Made Scientific Magic

  Chapter 57 The water polo in my hand is this continent!

  Theodore's violent words immediately attracted everyone's attention.

   Facing the surprised eyes of everyone, Theodore passed the so-called research manuscripts without saying much, and Kevin and others took them and looked at them one by one, with mocking expressions on their faces.

  When the manuscript was passed to Herram, the great wizard didn't laugh because he found that the manuscript mentioned something called air resistance...

  Lynn just took a sip of his tea, and didn't rush to explain. Instead, he waited for these college professors to read all his "research materials".

Although he didn't know much about the level of "magic" in the wizard's land, Kelu once left him two basic books, "Elemental Analysis" and "Basic Magic General". The existing theory has been extended, and it is very easy to verify.

In just five or six minutes, these dozen or so pages of manuscripts were read by a group of wizards. Since the so-called law of free fall is too unreliable, they just scanned the rest of the content very roughly, and then Surprised to find that there is actually a more outrageous argument than this thing in the manuscript.

"Listen, your name is Lynn, right? I don't know what kind of thoughts Kelu has in mind to ask you to give this ridiculous manuscript to the wizard's land, but with all due respect, the [Secret Society] Magic theory is full of holes..."

  Kevin threw the paper in his hand on the table casually, and said quite speechlessly. "And you actually think that the continent under your feet is a round ball? This is really ridiculous!"

   "Why can't this world be spherical? No one should have verified it yet." Lynn put down the tea cup in his hand unhurriedly.

  Although he has not been able to fly into space to fully confirm this due to his ability, but being able to stand here can already explain a lot of problems.

  For example, the mass and gravity of the planet under his feet must be very close to that of the earth, because the gravity he feels is almost the same.

The changes of the four seasons and the sun and the moon can also be used as evidence for the planet's rotation and orbit around the stars. After leaving the sea of ​​mist, the first thing he saw when he looked at the port was the top of the [Screaming Tower]. It's the body of the tower!

  The most important thing is the star map. As long as the stars are placed in the center, a perfect galaxy map can be constructed. This is the most direct evidence!

  If it wasn’t for the fact that there are only five planets orbiting this star on the star map, Lynn would start to wonder if this is the Earth in another parallel world.

  Because they are so similar!

"Since the harbor of Iyeta is facing the sea, I don't know if you have used farsighted magic or alchemy goggles to look at the sea on weekdays. If so, I think you should be able to notice that when the sailboat is gradually approaching from a distance, it must be See the sails first, then the hull!"

  While speaking, Lynn opened his hand, and under the surge of magic power, a huge and muddy water polo appeared in front of everyone, and then inserted a feather straight into the water.

   Immediately afterwards, the water began to surge, and the quill went straight from the bottom to the top. The first thing you saw was the top tip of the feather...

The wizards present immediately understood what Lynn meant. The entire giant water polo was like the continent under their feet, and the quill was the ship. If the continent was flat, they would see the entire hull from far to near. That's right.

   Only when the surface is curved will the sail be seen first.

"It seems to be so..." Theodore's brows were tightly frowned. Every Sunday, he would go to the port to meet new visitors. Sometimes he needed to use farsighted magic. It was indeed the same as Lynn said, every time It is the first to see the sails appear on the sea level.

  This theory seems to have a little truth, but Theodore always feels that there is something wrong.

   "This doesn't mean that this continent is a sphere, it might be a half-arc... This makes sense, doesn't it?" Another college professor eagerly retorted. "And according to what you said, under the action of gravity, the seawater above should have flowed down long ago..."

   While speaking, the college professor also imitated Lynn and directly made a soil ball to simulate a continent, and then attached a layer of water to the surface.

   Immediately afterwards, he released the [Mage's Hand], and the water flowed down immediately, breaking away from the soil ball, forming a puddle on the table.

   "Look, like this...it doesn't work at all!"

  The college professor said proudly, and Theodore and the others also nodded.

   "Could it be that the mainland is a semi-arc, so the water won't fall?" Lin En asked in a very speechless manner.

The professors of the college were immediately stunned. The farsightedness of the ship on the sea indicated that the sea water was most likely attached to the arc-shaped land, so the water must flow downward, and it was absolutely impossible to stay where it was. This is totally against common sense!

   Before they could think it through, Lynn continued to speak. "Also, how do we determine which side is down?"

   "Does it need to be said? Of course, the sky is up and the land is down. This is guided by gravity!" Theodore frowned and said, he didn't understand why the other party asked such a stupid question.

"Really? What about this?" Lin En raised his eyebrows, removed the water ball, put his hand on the soil ball made by the college professor, and urged the [Mage's Hand], the originally soft soil ball Slowly compressed inward, and finally turned into a solid ball.

   "If the force given by [Mage's Hand] is regarded as gravity, which side is up and which side is down for the center of the earth ball?"

  Theodore was completely dumbfounded. Lynn used the soil ball as a metaphor for the mainland is very simple and easy to understand. He naturally understood it, but it was precisely because he could understand that it was difficult to hide the shock in his heart.

  For the center of the sphere, there is gravity on all sides, so the front, back, left, and right are all above, and the bottom is located at the center of the sphere, so the water flow must adhere to the sphere.

The professors present also saw this point, and they started a heated discussion. Kevin was completely unwilling to believe this so-called planetary theory, and insisted that the continents are flat, and the farsightedness of sailing ships was just a coincidence, and could not be regarded as direct. evidence of.

  Philip and others hold the opposite opinion. They think that Lynn's words may not be unreasonable, at least it is also a reasonable theory, which can be used for reference research to confirm its authenticity.

   When everyone was arguing with each other, Theodore looked at Lynn and asked again. "You mean that there is a force that compresses everything towards the center of the continent? That's why the water stays on the surface of the continent?"

   Before Lynn could answer, Herram, who had been flipping through the manuscript, finally spoke.

   "The fact should be just the opposite. There is a certain force in the center of the continent that spreads to the surroundings, forming a gravitational field... dragging everything inward and sinking. This is what you want to express, right?"
