The Impact of the Earth Planet Rotation for Life - Part 2

The Earth Planet Rotation raises the following effects:

1. Daily Circulation of the Heavens

Celestial bodies like the Sun, Moon, and planets that appear at night seem to pass from east to west. This phenomenon is due to Earth's rotation. The movement of these heavenly bodies takes place every day and is known by the daily perfection of heavenly bodies.

2. Day and Night Turnover

The Earth's rotation causes the Earth's part facing the sun to get the sun's rays, while the Planet Earth part on the contrary does not get the sun's rays. Parts of the Earth that gets sunlight have a daylight, otherwise the Planet Earth that does not get sunlight to experience the night. The turn of the day and night went slowly. The area to the east had an afternoon. Day time is used by residents to conduct economic activities. Meanwhile, night time is used by residents to rest.

3. Time Diversity and International Time Distribution

Earth's rotation causes time differences at different places on the Earth's surface. Longitude is used to determine the time in various places on the surface of the Earth. The 0 ° longitude passing through Greenwich City, England is used as the basis of international time sharing. The area east of the longitude 0 ° is called the east longitude and the area to the west is called the west longitude. The longitude of the west and east longitude is bounded by 180 ° longitude. Time differences on the surface of the Earth have an impact on the beginning and end of resident activities such as work and school time.

4. Differences in Acceleration of Earth's Gravity

The Earth's rotation gives rise to centrifugal force. This force causes the Earth right at the poles. The Earth's centerline at the poles is smaller than the equator. The midline difference causes gravity in the polar regions to be greater than in the equator. Earth's gravitational differences affect the speed of satellites orbiting the Earth in various places.

5. Direction of Wind Direction

The wind blows from the high pressure area to the low pressure area. However, the direction of angina is not exactly the direction of the pressure gradient. The wind from the northern hemisphere will turn right and the wind from the southern hemisphere will turn left when it reaches the equator. This phenomenon is caused by the Coriolis force, the apparent force arising from the Earth's rotation. Wind direction reversal affects the flight direction deviation. Therefore, the aircraft need to be monitored so that the tracks are in line with the destination.

6) Deflection of the Flow of the Sea

Ocean currents are driven by winds that blow at sea level. The direction of the ocean currents has turned due to wind direction. The ocean currents are forced to turn when they reach the equator. The shifting of the ocean currents affects the deviation of the ship's voyage across the ocean so that the vessel needs to be directed towards its destination path
