Is the planet earth perfectly circular?

Question

Is the planet earth perfectly circular?

Answer 1

It's not even approximately circular, since a circle is a two-dimensional figure and the earth is three-dimensional.

Technically, the earth is an oblate spheroid, which means it is a sphere that bulges around the equator. Of course, there are other irregularities, but they are at a smaller scale - e.g., mountain ridges and local bulges at low-g regions.

Answer 2

no its like an egg   i think

Answer 3

It's not circular, that way it would have to be flat. It's spherical, but no, it's not perfect. For example: hills, mountains, etc.

Answer 4

No, it's flatten at the North and South Pole.

Answer 5

The equatorial bulge makes it just 22 kms wider at the Equator than across the poles.  That’s 22 km in about 13,000.  That makes it as perfect a spheroid as any ball you will find in the sports shop.  

Incidentally, why do you people talk about Earth being circular or round?  It is a sphere.  Can’t you think three-dimensionally?  You are a 3 dimensional being – you are not flat like a photo, and nor is the Earth.
