On July 29, the Earth broke its record for the shortest day due to completing full rounds in 1.59 milliseconds less than 24 -hour standard rotation.
According to The Independent, this planet has recently increased its speed. Back in 2020, the Earth saw its shortest moon recorded since the 1960s. On July 19 of the year, the shortest all time was measured. It was 1.47 milliseconds shorter than one 24 hour typical day.
The following year, this planet continued to spin at a level that generally increased, but did not solve any record. However, according to an interesting engineering (IE), the 50 -year -old phase that is shorter may begin now. The cause of different earth’s rotation speeds is still unknown. But scientists speculate that this could be due to processes in the inner or outside core, ocean, tides or even climate change.
Some researchers also believe that this can be related to the movement of the earth’s geographical pillars on its surface, known as “Chandler Wobble”. With simpler words, this is similar to what is seen when a spinning boss began to get momentum or slow down, according to scientists Leonid Zotov, Christian Bizouard, and Nikolay Sidorenkov. As independent, if the earth continues to rotate at an increase, it can cause the introduction of negative leap seconds, in an effort to maintain the level that the earth orbits the sun consistent with the measurement of atomic clocks.
However, the second negative leap will potentially confuse the consequences for smartphones, computers and communication systems. Quoting the Meta blog, the outlet reports that the second leap “especially benefits scientists and astronomers” but that is “a risky practice that is more dangerous than good”.
This is because the clock lasts from 23:59:59 to 23:59:60 before rearranging to 00:00:00. Therefore, a time leap like this can, therefore, crash programs and corrupt data because of the time stamp on data storage.
Meta also says that if a negative leap occurs second, the clock will change from 23:59:58 to 00:00:00, and this can have a “destroying effect” on the software that relies on timers and schedules. According to Ie, to resolve this, international time recording may need to add a second negative leap – “second decline”.
In particular, Coordinated Universal Time (UTC), the main time standard with which the world arranges hours and time, has been updated with a second leap 27 times.
