Some scientists suspect that the final day will be marked by the cessation of the Earth rotating on its axis.

Based on these findings, the BrightSide site tries to give an overview of some events, which might occur if the Earth suddenly stopped spinning on its axis (of course slowly). Here's the summary.

1. All objects will fly to the East at high speed

Humans never feel the Earth rotates and where the direction of rotation.

But if it stops, according to Sten Odenwald of the United States Space Agency (NASA) everything on its surface will be pulled from the ground and fly eastward at high speed before finally falling back.

In the equator, the speed will be the biggest. around 1,000 miles per hour. While in the polar region the speed reaches 800 miles per hour.

2. Giant Wave

The power of momentum will cause water in the sea to move to form a very powerful tsunami, which will head east and wipe out coastal cities from the surface of the Earth.

3. Earth's Surface Water is Divided in Two

This event not only caused the formation of two oceans, the North and South Seas, but also a new land in the middle.

4. Volcanic eruptions

The large kinetic power of the Earth and its momentum will shake the planet to its core.

The results are quite predictable: powerful storms, volcanic eruptions, and destructive earthquakes will occur everywhere.

5. Change into a ball

The geoid shape of the Earth is caused by a rotating motion on its axis. If the planet stops, the shape will become more rounded.
