Answer:

An equatorial bulge is a difference between the equatorial and polar diameters of a planet, due to the centrifugal force exerted by the rotation about the body's axis. A rotating body tends to form an oblate spheroid rather than a sphere..

The cause of the Bulging of the earth at the equator​:

  • The earth's rotation is responsible for the protruding bulging of the equator and the flattening of the earth's poles.
  • The Earth's rotation produces a radially acting centrifugal force which counter-equalises the operating centripetal force within.
  • The equatorial amount is also slightly higher in the seas than the poles in the equatorial regions.
  • The equatorial-bulge is formed by the rotation of the earth. A spot must move more rapidly to complete a circle (revolution), as latitude routes increase over time in size.
