What is determined by the speed of earths rotation on its axis?

The speed of Earth's rotation on its axis determines the length of a day. A faster rotation results in shorter days, while a slower rotation results in longer days.

Do skyscrapers slow down earths rotation?

Skyscrapers have a negligible impact on the Earth's rotation. Their size and mass are not significant enough to affect the Earth's rotation speed or axis. Other factors like earthquakes, glaciers melting, and ocean currents play a much larger role in influencing the Earth's rotation.

If you are at exactly the north or south pole the measurement is in Revolutions per Day And that speed is 1 Revolution Per Day.


Which part of earth's surface has the greatest rotational speed about Earth's axis. Which part has the greatest linear speed relative to Earth's axis?

In the case of a solid rotating object, the rotational speed is the same for all parts. The linear speed is greatest at points that are furthest from the axis of rotation - in other words, at the equator.


Why does the United States launch rockets from Florida?

Where is the earth's greatest linear speed?

The Earth's greatest linear speed occurs at the equator, where its rotation causes a point on the surface to move around the planet at about 1,670 kilometers per hour (1,040 miles per hour).


If an object left Earth which direction will it travel due to inertia and Earths rotation?

That depends, in what direction it is moving initially, and at what speed. Inertia is the tendency to MAINTAIN a velocity.


What keeps people from feeling the speed of the earths rotation?

Everything else is moving along with you. You don't really notice much movement when you're taking an airplane trip unless you're landing or taking off; the earth's rotation is similar.
