i don't think anyone really knows that really unless your an extreme scientist and if you are than will u PLEASE help me with my science work?! =P
That depends, in what direction it is moving initially, and at what speed. Inertia is the tendency to MAINTAIN a velocity.
Earth's rotation is slowing slightly with time; thus, a day was shorter in the past. This is due to the tidal effects the Moon has on Earth's rotation.
Coriolis force describes an apparent force that is due to the rotation of the earth. (From my meteorolgy textbook)
Due to the vast distance between the earth and polaris, the earths axis of rotation essentially lines up with polaris at all times, so when the stars are visible, and viewed from the north pole, the earths rotation causes the stars to appear to rotate around polaris.
It's called Coriolis force.
It's called Coriolis force.
Easy it's the coriolis force
It's called Coriolis force.
It is due to the earth's rotation. (source: January 2005 earth science regents exam)
Yes. The energy from the tides ultimately comes from Earth's rotation; due to friction during the tides, Earth's rotation will logically get slower and slower.
the moon is always in the sky, but due to the earths rotation it cant be seen during the day.
Yes, the thickness varies from te equatoral to the polar regions due to the Earth's rotation. The atmosphere is thicker at the equator than the poles. this is due to the earths rotation and centripital force.
