How does the climate work on a flat earth? Why does it get colder the further north or south or up you go?

What force is applied to water in zero gravity?
How is water in zero gravity "falling"?
Think very carefully about your answer. You are almost there.
Leaving aside the fact that zero gravity is a misnomer/misunderstanding, the answer is air pressure.
Because “zero gravity” is not a thing. The water in the video is in freefall (even if you believe in orbit) and still very much under the force of gravitation (to use your parlance).
Practice what you preach! If you earnestly care to learn, you’ll get there eventually.
You are almost there.
How can it be in freefall in orbit if the earth is flat?
Lol, says the person that thinks falling is motionless. Hydrostatics is the study of water at rest, not falling.
Freefall demonstrably does exist, and it does not depend on the earth being any particular shape. Your belief that it does is a learned/encouraged bias.
A globe earth easily explains freefall.
How does flat earth explain freefall without invoking magic?
