Essentially, yes. The earth accumulates cosmic dust, meteorites and the occasional comet, but not at a rate significant enough to appreciably change the earth's circumference. The sinking of heavy rock, such as caused by the recent 8.8 magnitude earthquake in Chile also does not measureably change the earth's circumference. Some scientists estimated earth's rotational velocity may have accelerated as much as a millionth of a second per day from that earthquake, however.
The motion of the continental plates about earth's surface does not appreciably affect earth's circumference either. These plates move about on a half billion year cycle known as the Wilson Cycle.
To calculate the circumference of the Earth, you can use the formula C 2r, where C is the circumference, is a constant (approximately 3.14159), and r is the radius of the Earth. The average radius of the Earth is about 6,371 kilometers. Plug this value into the formula to find the circumference.
The equatorial circumference of the earth is 24901.45 miles (40075.02 km).
The circumference of the earth in miles is about 24,901 miles. The diameter is about 7,926 miles.
The average circumference of the Earth is approximately 40,075 kilometers (24,901 miles) around the equator.
The difference between the Earth's polar circumference and equatorial circumference, known as the flattening of the Earth, indicates that the Earth is an oblate spheroid. This means that the Earth is slightly flattened at the poles and bulges at the equator, making it not a perfect sphere.

fairly constant
G would remain the same, it's the gravitational constant which is the same everywhere in the universe. g would increase by 4 times, assuming that the radius of the earth didn't increase.
As there is no external torque acting on it, its angular momentum remains constant. This is according to the law of conservation of angular momentum
surface waves also known as longitudnal waves . they travels at constant speed on the circumference of the earth
You can tell by the seasons, if the sun revolved around the earth the temperature would remain constant all year.
The Earth is 3.64 times larger than Moon's Circumference. (Earth's Circumference) 39,843 divide by (Moon's Circumference) 10,921=3.64
Every line of constant longitude joins the north and south poles. Therefore the length of every line of constant longitude is one half of the earth's polar circumference.
earth remain Fly constrant over time though this does not mean that precipitation will increase
Because:- circumference/diameter = pi and when the formula is rearranged circumference = pi*diameter
Every meridian of constant longitude joins the Earth's north and south poles, so the length of each meridian is 1/2 of the Earth's polar circumference.
No but if you replace a constant with a function it will remain a formula
