That's what I said, in 24 hours the ball did not change distance from the center of the earth, so the acceleration for that 24 hour period was zippo. You brought up all the other stuff when all I was asking you was how much the distance changed. The ball did not increase or decrease velocity, it simply stayed at 0 m/s for 24 hours.
Imaginary "gravity" because of some magic trick in the air is not to be believed. FORCE and acceleration are to be measured and be believed! Newton got it wrong, there is no magic crap in matter that makes magic work. It isn't magic, it's FORCE, and it doesn't work the way you think it does, hence the inability to understand gravity for what it really is.
