As earth is revolving and completes a round (herself) within 24 hrs apprx. Looking at her max perimeter we are traveling approx 30KM/sec.
Can we use this energy for trasportation?
Please suggest your ideas

My Idea is
Keep some object above ground level against two forces (Gravitational and Revolving)
Within a second earth moves to next 30 km. We can take down the object.
Is it possible?

Not really.
It is the same as travelling in a train. You are moving relative to the earth at 60 mph but at 0 mph relative to the train.
The only time I can think of when use is made of the earth's rotation is when firing a rocket into space. The closer you are to the equator the less power you need to get into orbit.
