According to the 2004 Working Group of the International Earth Rotation and Reference Systems Service (IERS), Earth experiences a flattening of 0.0033528 at the poles. This flattening is due to Earth’s rotational velocity – a rapid 1,674.4 km/h (1,040.4 mph) – which causes the planet to bulge at the equator.

Equatorial vs Polar Diameter:

Because of this, the diameter of the Earth at the equator is about 43 kilometers (27 mi) larger than the pole-to-pole diameter. As a result, the latest measurements indicate that the Earth has an equatorial diameter of 12,756 km (7926 mi), and a polar diameter of 12713.6 km (7899.86 mi).

In short, objects located along the equator are about 21 km further away from the center of the Earth (geocenter) than objects located at the poles. Naturally, there are some deviations in the local topography where objects located away from the equator are closer or father away from the center of the Earth than others in the same region.

Anxiety disorders are characterized by overwhelming tension, irrational fear and physiological arousal.

Anxiety disorders are a relatively broad category of mental disorders with anxiety and fear being the most common characteristics of all of them. Some of the most common symptoms include panic, fear and uneasiness, but also physiological arousal manifested as shortness of breath, heart palpitations and nausea.

There are 5 different types of anxiety disorders; the generalized anxiety disorder, the obsessive-compulsive disorder, the panic disorder, the post-traumatic stress disorder and the social phobia.

Anxiety disorders are occurring as a combination of environmental and genetic risk factors. The global statistics show that they are twice as common in women than in men. In addition, it has been shown that anxiety disorders are the most common mental disorders in the USA.
