If it reversed suddenly, it'd be a disaster. Even if one would assume that the actual bedrock would be strong enough, all the water in every ocean and sea would slosh about something fierce. Civilization as we know it would collapse due to all the cities being destroyed.
Plants and wildlife would also take a serious hit due to all habitat destruction.
Luckily, there is no known way in which this might happen, so it's not worth worrying about.

Where does energy take place?
Every item on this planet earth contains energy. Energy, in a way, is the source of our existence. It takes place from one place to the other.
Does earth pull all objects with same force?
No. The two-way force of gravity between the earth and any object is proportional tothe mass of the object.The thing that's constant for all objects, regardless of their mass, is their acceleration,as the earth and the object fall toward each other.
What is curvature of earth?
The Earth is a sphere. It is shaped like a sphere because gravity shapes it this way. For this same reason the moon, sun, and other massive bodies in space are also spherical.
What colors don't have white in them?
White is a mixture of other colors, not the other way round.White is a mixture of other colors, not the other way round.White is a mixture of other colors, not the other way round.White is a mixture of other colors, not the other way round.
Does the Moon exert a gravitational force on the Earth?
Yes. Gravity is always a two-way thing. The gravitational forces between any two things are equal forces, and they act in opposite directions. -- There are two forces between you and the Earth. -- One force attracts you to the Earth. You call it your 'weight' on Earth. -- The other force attracts the Earth to you. There's no name for it, because nobody every discusses it. It's simply the Earth's weight on you. -- Your weight on Earth and the Earth's weight on you are EQUAL ! -- When you and the Earth separate and are allowed to come together under the influence of the forces of gravity, one of the forces pull you toward the Earth, and the other one pulls the earth toward you. The smaller mass accelerates faster, and the larger mass accelerates slower. If one of the masses is much much less than the other one, then the acceleration of the larger mass is much much less, and nobody notices it. You stagger into the house, yelling "I fell out of the tree", and you don't feel like getting technical about it at that moment. But what REALLY happened is that you and the Earth both fell, toward each other.
What would have happened if the earth rotated from east to west?
If it had always rotated the other way things would probably be similar although the continents might not have identical shapes to what they are now *************************************** When a vehicle suddenly stops, the passengers are thrown forward - it is called momentum. If the earth suddenly reversed its spinning, the momentum of the worlds oceans would surge forward and completely wash over the land.
The Greek scientist Aristarchus was the first person to suggest what?
He first suggested that the Earth (and the other planets that were then known) rotated around the Sun instead of the other way around.
Where is the position of the earth sun in January if the earth rotated anti clockwise?
The Earth normally rotates anticlockwise as seen from the north. If you mean 'if the Earth rotates the opposite way', then its position in January (relative to the Sun) could be the same. The four seasons would also be roughly the same.
What is Nicolaus Copernicus's Talents?
Of course, Nicolaus Copernicus was well known for his amazing talent in study of Astronomy, and like Aristotle, he questioned old ideas. One important idea he questioned, was that the sun and moon and stars all rotated around the earth
How are tires rotated?
Proper way to rotate tires on C240
What is the fastest and best way to get out of Iraq?
The fastest way out of Iraq is by getting shot. The best way is to be rotated out at the end of your tour.
If you dig a hole from one side of the earth to the other side and you throw a titanium ball in the hole does it fall to the other side or will it balance in the middle gravity issue?
In reality, you couldn't dig a hole through the Earth; the core of the Earth is molten iron, and quite fluid. But if you COULD..... If you have a perfectly smooth tunnel clear through the Earth, then if you dropped a titanium (or any other material) in, it would fall, accelerating all the way, to the center. It would then rise, slowing down, until it ALMOST reached the surface on the other side. If the tunnel were in a vacuum, it would, almost exactly, reach the other end before falling back in. The one-way trip would take 82 minutes. Because of the rotation of the Earth, the ball would be banging or rolling along the wall of the tunnel as the ball fell and the Earth rotated around it.
What happen to earth if there no more light?
If the sun were to be suddenly removed form the centre of our solar system, then 8 minuets later the Earth would be in darkness and would be flying off into the Milky Way in a straight line.
What are the earth style in naruto?
An other way to say earth release, the method that uses earth based techniques
What is wrong when two friends suddenly become awkward towards each other?
one usually likes the other and they are just waiting for you/(him/her) to feel the same way.
When is the milky way going to crash into earth?
The solar system (the planets, the earth and the sun) is a part of the milky way, and rotates with the other stars the milky way consists of. The milky way is therefore not going to collide with the earth.
What planets will you pass on the way to Venus from earth?
You will not pass any planets on the way from Venus to Earth because both planets are right next to each other, except if you count Venus and Earth as passing from one to the other.
