Why is the earth round?

Question

Violet Adams · Accepted Answer

Due to its mass and gravity.

Scientists have proved that 4.5 billion years ago that all the planets of the solar system were formed from a nebula cloud at the same time due to the gravity. The cloud collapsed at the end of the matter which circled around the Sun are all the planets in our solar system which later became few because of the high boiling points.The planets were formed due to the rocky clumps that escaped the cloud. As all these matters were added up to the Earth so the gravitational force increased and the matter attempted to take the most perfect shape; the shape of a geoid(earth like shape).

undefined The Earth is round due to its gravitational forces. Gravity pulls matter inward, causing it to form into a roughly spherical shape. This phenomenon is known as hydrostatic equilibrium. Additionally, the rotation of the Earth on its axis further contributes to its spherical shape, as it causes the planet to bulge slightly at the equator and flatten at the poles, resulting in an oblate spheroid shape.
