Land spin because of the small day in this summer

Reports show that this summer will be slightly faster in the rotation of the land for three days – July 9, July 22 and August 5 – which will cover 1.3 to 1.5 ml every day. Unimaginable in everyday life, this change indicates how the position of the moon affects the spin of our planet. For reference, the shortest day on record was July 5, 2024, which lasts for less than 24 hours for 1.66 ml seconds. More than billions of years, the rotation of the earth has gradually increased, but recent data show the speedup. Scientists say it is important to monitor these small changes to understand the dynamics and time capping of the earth.

The reasons for sharp spin

According to At Timeanddate.com, the shortest recorded day was July 5, 2024, which was a 24 -hour shy 1.66 ml second. Acceleration is largely run by the gravity of the moon. On these dates (July 9, July 22 and August 5), the moon will remain far away from the north or south of the Earth’s letter, and will weaken its maritime break on the spin of our planet. As a result, the earth revolves around – as rotate the peak on its heads. Massive distribution also affects circulation in seasonal shifts. Richard Holm of the University of Liverpool has noted that the rise in the northern hemisphere and the melting snow rises largely from the axis of the earth, as well as slowing the spin as an ice escort slows down its arms.

Time Capping and Technology

Shifts are handled by the time in length of the day. The International Earth Rotation and Reference System Service (Iris) oversees the land spin and adds lip seconds to maintain a universal time (UTC) integrated in harmony with solar time. Usually a second is added when the earth’s circulation slows down, but if the spin-up trend continues, scientists have developed a “negative jump second”-a second to remove the watches.

Dr. Michael Vouters of the Australian National Measures Institute says the fix will be unprecedented, and notes that even if a few seconds accumulate during decades, it will not be careful. Dr. David Gozard, of the University of Western Australia, said that GPS relys on nuclear watches compatible with satellite, communication networks and power grid nano -seconds, and that the land circulation is easily absorbed by these systems.
