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.

Explanation:

What are Retrieval cues?

There are things that can help us recall particular Information and they are referred to as retrieval cues.

By using retrieval cues we are able to retrieve memories preserved in our long term memory and bring them to the current situation. Retrieval cues make it easy for us to recall Information we may have rather forgotten. It can be a familiar song,smell or taste that reminds us of what we already know. These are external cues. They can also be internal such certain feelings that may take you back to a memory when you experienced those feelings .

Some questions may give a clue to what you already know so as he scans through the questions he may pick up a word that may bring back a memory of what he has learnt earlier.

krok68 [10]

Answer:

You could explain this using the B. Mean world syndrome.

Explanation:

The Mean world syndrome is an <em>error in thought</em> in which an individual thinks  <em>the world is a much more dangerous place than it actually</em> is because he/she has been long exposed to mass media.

In this case, we can see Martha watches <em>"quite a bit"</em> of television and mostly crime dramas. This long exposure has made her develop this syndrome and thus she believes that her city has a higher crime rate than it does.
