stationary object (the engine block)

I agree. This is common sense. Yes if you count the revolutions of a
wheel, from point A to point B, the number of revolutions will be the
same regardless of speed. The only measurable thing here being the
revolutions and the distances. I.e Number of revolutions, as well as
the distance travelled of the revolutions as well as the distance of
the road.

Of course the speedometers on a car, are caused by a gear ratio which
work out to Newtons idea where Velocity = distance / time. The
physical calculation of which is utimately calculated by distances,
say the ratio of the diameter of one gear compared to the other which
causes the speedometer to move up and down. We all agree that a
speedometer works with gears right ?

Hypothetically, the odometer could be used as a clock in either case if the
revolutions are at a constant rate (no fluctuation in speed or distance).

The odometer is a clock/ except that it can go faster or slower. Speed
is given as a function of V=d/t. But ultimately, the quicker you move
between point A and point B, on the surface of Earth, you move a
shorter distance in the solar system. So to me its more about
distances than time. If i were to walk across the USA It might take 1
year. Or if I were to drive it would take 3 days.

The radius of the earth from the sun is approx 150 million km. Over
365 days I will have travelled from Seatle to New york a distance of

2 x 3.141592654 (pi) x 150Million = 942, 477 796

Which is almost a billion km's

Over 3 days I will have travelled from Seatle to New york a distance
of 7, 746 392 Kilometres. .

942, 477 796 / 365(days in the year) x 3days
= 7, 746 392 km's

And as you can see, a simple matter of where you place the model for
"time" you will result in just as valid a system for a mathematical
proportion of speed. I might also say that. . .

942, 477 796 divided by 7, 746 392

The car was therefore driving 121.66 times the speed of walk. How fast
on average can people walk before they must begin to run ? In this
case I have not used time once. I have simply used 365 solar days,
which is a solar year as well as 1 orbit of the planet around the
sun.

When your running around to catch up with the sun but its
sinking. . .shorter of breath and one day closer to death.

Every year is getting shorter ? Never seem to find the time ?
