WATER AND GRAVITATION

Water. like everything else. is under the influence of gravitation. __A_ll parts-of- ib rnustr-thonfdreffiét s! near as ossible to the cecitre of the earth. n the case of a solid thing, those forces which hold it together ‘partly oppose the force} of gravitation. and so an hldlfl-fllb-' ber bull. for instance. will remain as s ball, though if it were melt- ed it would run outflet on the table just as water does. But when we come to consider who! the shape ofthe earth is. we shall see that the questlon.‘“Why ls the surface of wstenalwsys level?" is not quite right if we read t stri-ctl .

The earth is s,bsll. an if water ls to obey the law of gravitation and get u near the centre of the earth as ponlble. it follows that the surface of water must always curve and ltscurvature. as we lay. must be the same es the curvature of the earth. The water in the smallest pool or basi-n must obey this law.

t s

be but. of course, the curve is so slight

that we cannot see it.

If. however. instead of a pool we take a huge lake or the bcesn. we can see that the surface of the wat- er is ‘curved. because we can nee how s ship leaving us gradually disappears. or a ship coming over the horizon rises up as at ap- proaches us. S0 the real answer- to this question is that the surface of water is always curved; and it fl always curved in one wey--the way in which the earth itself is curved.
