What would happen if the Earth stopped spinning for one minute?

Does the solid Earth + the oceans stop spinning?

Does it stop due to a massive collision, or does it stop by magic?

The answer depends entirely on how you interpret the question, which is why you see so many completely different responses.

Why do narcissists avoid talking about the real issues?

Does the whole planet (from core to atmosphere) stop spinning?

If Earth’s rotation is stopped by a collision, everyone dies. The planet is destroyed.

If the whole Earth stops by magic, with the angular momentum just vanishing and then reappearing, then the result is very minor. Every clock on Earth would need to be recalibrated against our satellites (unless they magically got paused as well). Siderial, solar, and atomic time would all be out of sync. Other than that, everybody would want to know: What the heck just happened? How did Earth magically stop and start again? But everybody is just fine.

Ive been pretending to be okay and acting as normal as possible, but Im actually completely heartbroken after a recent breakup. Its painful and really affecting me, to the point where I cant concentrate at work, Ive lost my appetite, I cant sleep, and It feels as if my whole world has been turned upside down. I loved him so much. He said so many cruel things to me and it made me realize he must not have loved me the way I loved him, or he wouldnt have said such horrible things. How do I handle the heartbreak and why cant I accept that he didnt love me and just forget about him?

If Earth’s rotation is stopped and all the angular momentum is released as heat, everyone dies.

If the oceans keep going, Earth’s surface is scoured clean by tsunamis moving at hundreds of miles per hour. Nearly everyone dies.

What kind of pleasure do gay men get from being bottom? The idea is very appealing to me but in practice it's quite painful.

Does the rocky planet alone stop spinning?

If it stops by magic, does all the energy from Earth’s angular momentum also disappear by magic, or is it released as heat?

Bottom line: Depending on the underlying intent of the question, the answer could be anything from the destruction of the planet and every living thing, to a minor inconvenience that requires resetting our clocks.

If only the atmosphere keeps going, Earth’s surface is blasted with winds moving at hundreds of miles per hour. Most people die.
