6 MONTHS long day and night on earth!!??

-




Earth spins around its axis everyday, which is responsible for sunrise and sunsets. So, what will happen if the earth stopped spinning? Read on to find out.

Even if the earth stopped spinning, the atmosphere around would be still in motion, which means everything on the earth surface would be swept into the atmosphere(huge DESTRUCTION).

Next, centrifugal force(force due to the circular motion of an object) is generated due to spinning of the earth and is responsible for the huge bulge of water around the equator. No spinning, no centrifugal force and as a result, all the water will rush towards the poles, where the gravity is the strongest. Then, the earth would have one giant supercontinent around the equator and act as a separation between two massive seas on the north and the south.

Even if the earth stopped spinning, earth will be still revolving around the sun, so we will have 6 MONTHS long day and night. Wake up in the morning, wait for 6 MONTHS for night!!!

Earth spins generates magnetic field, which protects earth from the harmful solar radiations.

A MONSTER lives in this lake!!!!

The name is Loch Ness, the name of the lake. It is in the north of Scotland and is the biggest lake in Britain. Not many people visited the lake, as it was always cold and dark, until a road was made around the lake. People began to use the road, and this is when the talks about the MONSTER started. It all began when someone said that they actually saw a 12 metres long monster in the lake. Then others joined in too. In 1963, a London doctor took  a photograph of the monster which was not clear. The newspapers printed the picture and called the monster ‘Nessie’. Later in 1961, underwater cameras and even a submarine was used so that they could confirm the existence of the monster. They failed to do so, but did find something else, a huge underwater cave, which was big enough to be home of the monster. In 1975, a search team consisting of some American scientists used underwater cameras which took pictures every 70 seconds. Some of the pictures showed a red-brown creature , 4 metres long

What if the sun disappeared?

The first thing that comes to our mind is that there will be darkness all around. Just darkness? Nope. • No sun means no moon, as moon does not produce light of its own. • The planets stay in their orbit due to sun’s massive mass and gravitational power. So yes, all the planets would go off, flying in the space. Creating complete chaos in the solar system. • Darkness would cover the earth only after 8 minutes, as it takes that amount of time for light to reach earth.(not complete darkness as the stars would continue to shine). • Plants would die as photosynthesis won’t occur. • Temperature would go below -74 degrees Celsius, impossible to survive on earth. • Ocean surface would freeze, exception being the water in the inside, which remains liquid due to the heat from the geothermal vents on the ocean floor. • Only animals near the core would survive, as they don’t need the sun for energy. Instead they depend on the heat from the geothermal vents. I write articles, mostly

What if earth had two moons?

Moon is such a beautiful thing, isn’t it? There is a single moon on earth , we all know that, 79 moons on Jupiter, 2 on mars and none on mercury. So, what if earth had 2 moons? Read on to find out. Well, that won’t be great. Moons help in generating tides(yea the sea tides). So, in the case of 2 moons, the tides will amplify(the moons being close to each other), thus eroding shorelines and flooding many parts of the world. And in the case the moons being far away from each other, there will no tides(as the moons cancel out each other). Not only about the tides, the combined pull of the earth and the first moon would have an effect on the second moon. The second moon would be caught between the gravitational pull from both the ends, which would trigger volcanic activity on the second moon. Also, the existence of the second moon would slow down earth’s rotation, so a single day may be longer than 28 hours. Sounds good about having extra time in our busy lives? But this is actually where
