Gravity

So I have come to a very interesting observation I would like to share...

If an object is suspended above the earth lets say sitting atop a building, our perception that the object is in a state of rest or having potential is flawed, the object has all the motion of the earth. We generally perceive an objects motion within the earth’s motion. However, if a parent objects motion has no effect on the motion of something within then a person walking up and down a moving train would feel no directional difference.

The earth is an object with a state of motion as we all know. Each of its distinctive paths are unique however they are all simultaneously the motion of the earth.

If the law of conservation of energy is correct then when an object suspended above the earth is released; does it measure acceleration? The question does not take into consideration all the perspectives from which I could make the observation of an objects motion.

From the objects perspective it looses the motion it had before regaining it upon surface collision. Watching the object from the earth’s perspective the object accelerates and then looses that acceleration into the earth.

If an object is in motion with the earth then released... Does it loose the Earths motion before the earth runs into it? or, Does it accelerate by still some unexplained energy we call gravity?

There need not be any additional source of force if the object is observed to be loosing the motion it once had. To measure acceleration, an object would require more motion then before it was released. Additional motion or acceleration would result in object separation not collision.

If you were to toss an object on which sat an ant would you consider the ant at rest although the object you tossed was not?
