What caused this change in the pendulum’s direction of swing was that Earth was rotating under it. and The shape of Earth is also a clue that it is rotating. Earth is not a perfect sphere. It is 5.________(slight) flattened at the North and South Poles and bulges slightly at the equator. It is similar to 6._______ happens in a washing machine.

It is tilted 2._____ an angle of 23 1/2° and always points in the same general direction. This means that as Earth goes around its orbit, the Northern Hemisphere (places north of the equator such as the United States, while 二 at Europe, and China) is at times leaning more toward or more away from the sun. When it is summer in the United States, the Northern Hemisphere is tilted more toward the sun. As spring turns into summer, the sun climbs higher in the sky, it is above 3._______ horizon longer, and its rays strike the ground more directly. the As fall turns into winter, the Northern Hemisphere tilts away from the sun.
