“24.47 days is needed for the equator to rotate once around the axis, and to the slower poles – 24.24 days.”
So what’s faster then?
Upsilon
It turns out that the speed of rotation at the poles is higher, but the speed of movement in space is less, because the equator is farther from the axis of rotation.
Well, why not at least a simple transcription? Why the article, in which there is only one link to the video and everything?
