why is that earth is becoming flatter at the poles?next question is:-why hydrogen atom has no neutron?

Question

a question related to circular motion in physics and a question from chemistry.

Answer 1

1) If it is, it's because of the centrifugal force pushing mass down from the poles towards the middle. I do know the earth bulges slightly due to the centrifugal force, but I've never heard that it's actually continuing to get flatter. At some point the rigidity of the mass would prevent any further bulging.
2) Hydrogen has only one proton - nuetrons are used to hold more than one proton together.

Answer 2

Earth look flatter on the poles as a results of fact of centerfutal tension. As earth self rotates, the inertia of the subject has a tendency to stay on the the place they are going at contemporary yet they have been pulled decrease back by utilising the gravity. greater removed from the axis of the rotation has greater desirable the stress acted on it. The pole section is nice on the axial of the self rotation and for this reason concerns at or close to the pole did no longer have plenty tension appearing on it. So for this reason it turns into greater flat. i do no longer understand why there isn't any neutron. Hydrogen is the 1st ingredient and that's how nature creates it.

Answer 3

The Earth isn't becoming flatter at the poles - the Earth is becoming more spherical.

The Earth does have a bulge at the Equator, but, over the long term, mass is moving towards the poles due to the Earth's rotation rate slowing. Just look at which direction the continental plates have drifted over millions of years to see which direction the mass of the Earth tends to move.

Short term, there's lots of variation. The large earthquake causing the large Tsunami a little over a year ago resulted in a larger than usual shift of mass towards the poles. Global warming results in a smaller than usual shift of mass towards the poles (and even a slight short term increase in the Earth's oblateness).

Short term variations make interesting news articles, but it would be misleading to say the Earth is becoming flatter when the long term trend is that the Earth becomes more spherical.

Answer 4

(1)
It isn't.

(2)
Because if it *did* have a neutron, it'd be an atom of deuterium

Answer 5

1. because it spins
2. because there is no elecrostatic force from multiple protons to overcome
