If you spin a propellor...

Edges do spin faster than the centre. CD drives are designed to account for the difference.

okget a cd draw a line through it in the centre and then spin it using a reference point both lines would cross the same point at the same time if they didn't the lines would move
God good, not this tripe again.
It's all down to what you're viewing and the conditions (physical/mental) you're viewing it in. "frames" don't come in to it.

ok, done that. The outside moved faster.
I drew a line from the centre to the edge then rotated the cd 90 degrees to the left.
The outside moved about 7cm and the inside moved about 1cm. They both did this in the exact same time, therefor the outside is faster.

No the human eye does not have a "refresh rate".
It is continuous and not all the cones/rods are in perfect sync.
60fps is merely the FPS at which most people don't notice too much flicker.

it's not faster when based on a set reference point (the inner point of the circle) plus you also increasing the inertia which plays a factor into the speed of a moving object at any one given time
Eye's don't have a refresh rate, we don't see in frames.
Right, but you get what I mean. Cmon guys, wheres the luv?
Actually no, without a "refresh rate" your point doesn't work
I know it doesn't work EXACTLY like frames, but it seems like the 60Hz is a threshold between seeing something and it being a blur/not being seen.
No it doesnt.
Inertia has nothing to do with speed. It does affect acceleration tho.wikipedia said:
Physical objects dont have a frequency tho? They are continuously in existence?
(in before: "doing some sort of phase shift in and out of existence"
)No you'll see something perfectly fine at 10 fps you'll just notice the gaps more, at 50 odd it's very flickery but at 60 it's more tolerable it's really not applicable outside of screens though. (even then mostly crts)
