Because the centripetal force of Earth's rotation is stronger at the Equator.

因为地球自转的向心力在赤道处更强。

Phase two, activating the Torque Engines encircled along the equator to stop Earth's rotation.

第二阶段 启动绕赤道的转向发动机 驱使地球停止自转。

A person who lives at the Equator is in accelerated motion due to the earth's rotation.

住在赤道的人由于地球自转的缘故做加速运动。

For example, the motion of the atmosphere is significantly influenced by factors including gravity and the earth’s rotation.

例如，大气层的运动受重力和地球自转等因素的显着影响。

One clock marks each day by measuring Earth's rotation with respect to the distant stars, and counts off 86,400 Earth seconds between each rotation.

一个时钟通过测量地球相对于遥远恒星的自转来标记每一天，并在每次自转之间计算 86，400 个地球秒。

Now I know that I'm three hours of earth rotation from London, and like I said before, that means I'm 45 degrees west of London.

现在我知道自己与伦敦相差 3 个地球自转时，正如前文所述，这意味着我在伦敦以西 45 度。

Factors, like temperature, salinity, wind, gravity, and the Coriolis effect from the Earth's rotation create a complex system of water movement.

温度、盐度、风、重力和地球自转的科里奥利效应等因素创造了一个复杂的水运动系统。

Oceans, and move in geosynchronous orbit—meaning their speed matches the Earth’s rotation, so they are always above the same terrestrial spot.

海洋， 并在地球同步轨道上移动——这意味着它们的速度与地球的自转相匹配，所以它们总是在同一个陆地点上方。

The elevator stays vertical because the counterweight is thrown outward by the Earth's rotation and the base is held down by gravity.

电梯保持垂直，因为配重因地球自转而向外抛出，而底座则因重力而被压住。

And all geostationary satellites, like those used for communication or navigation, they use Sidereal time to keep their orbits locked with the Earth's rotation.

所有对地静止卫星， 例如用于通信或导航的卫星，都使用恒星时来保持其轨道与地球自转锁定。

To an observer in space who is not rotating with the earth, the blue car is going 45 miles per hour, plus the speed of Earth's rotation.

对于太空中不随地球旋转的观察者来说，蓝色汽车的行驶速度为每小时 45 英里，加上地球自转的速度。

The Coriolis effect, caused by the Earth's rotation, causes this influx of air to begin rotating, usually counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.

由地球自转引起的科里奥利效应导致这些流入的空气开始旋转, 通常北半球是逆时针方向, 南半球是顺时针方向。

One of the must-see exhibits include a model of Foucault's experiment which allows visitors to watch the pendulum slowly rotating clockwise without external force as a the result of earth's rotation.

必看的展品之一是福柯实验模型， 参观者可以看到钟摆在没有外力的情况下顺时针缓慢旋转， 这是地球自转的结果。

If it's 3: 00 AM in London, and where I am the clock says it's only midnight, I know that I'm three earth rotation hours away from London and that means 45 degrees of longitude.

如果现在是伦敦凌晨 3 点，而我所在的地方时钟显示现在才午夜，我知道我距离伦敦三个地球自转小时，这意味着 45 度经度。
