Your arguments have been rebuked many times over the years.

Your infantile notions about velocity and acceleration were replaced
centuries ago by calculus.

You keep posting nonsense, and you ignore the responses.
You ask questions, and you ignore the responses.

Why don't you buy a book on calculus and leave us alone for a few
years while you come to terms with it?
