Who was the first to claim that the earth is ellipsoid not spherical?
Newton was first claim that the earth is ellipsoid instead of spherical...
What is an earth shaped object called?
The technical name for the shape of the Earth is geoid. This is studied in the science of geodesy.
Is the sun and earth roughly the same shape?
No, the Sun and Earth are not roughly the same shape. The Sun is a roughly spherical star, while the Earth is an oblate spheroid, meaning it is mostly spherical but slightly flattened at the poles and bulging at the equator.
What is the gravitational attraction between the earth and everything?
Gravitational attraction between Earth and objects is determined by their mass and distance. The more massive an object is, the stronger the attraction. Similarly, the closer an object is to Earth, the stronger the gravitational pull.
What kind of energy exists between the Earth and every object on it?
Gravity
WHY earth is circle in shape?
Because it's spherical object
How do you put spherical in a sentence?
The spherical ball rolled down the hill into the street.
What is an everyday object that has a shape similar to earth?
An orange is an everyday object that has a shape similar to Earth, with a round and spherical shape.
Is globe a noun?
Yes, "globe" is a noun. It refers to a spherical representation of the Earth or another celestial body, or a spherical object.
A spherical object made of rock or gas that orbits a star?
Such an object is called a planet. We live on the planet Earth.
What is the definition of a globe?
Most often, the word globe refers to a spherical representation of the earth or of the constellations with a map on the surface. Otherwise it is any spherical or rounded object.
How does this demonstrate that earth is spherical?
WHAT demonstrates that the Earth is spherical?!
What was Aristotles basis for believing that the earth was spherical?
First he realised that eclipses of the moon were caused by the earth coming between the sun & the moon. The earth's shadow on the moon was always round, which would be true only if the earth was spherical.
The amount of gravitational attraction between the earth and an object depends on the objects distance from the earth and what else?
The amount of gravitational attraction between the Earth and an object depends on the object's distance from the Earth and the masses of both the object and the Earth. The gravitational force decreases as the distance between the object and Earth increases, following the inverse square law.
What factor affects the size of the force between Earth and an object?
-- the mass of the object -- the distance between the object and the earth's center (or the object's height off the surface)
What is the force of an object between Earth and the object?
It is gravity.
Is the earth really spherical?
The Earth is almost spherical. It's slightly squashed, or oblate.
