The accumulated water in the Chinese dam changed the distribution of soil mass. This, in turn, increased the moment of the planet’s motion, scientists believed.
The construction of three gorges in the world of the Hydroelectric Power Station on the Yangtzi River slowed the Earth’s waist of 0.06 microseconds, which actually increased the duration of the day. The corresponding statement was made by Dr. Benjamin Fong Chao, a geophysicist from the Goddard Space Flight Center, reports Yahoo News.
The hydroelectric power station of the three gorges was built in the province of Hubay. Its dams built in 2012 are 2335 meters long and a height of 185 meters. It holds about 40 cubic kilometers of water. At the same time, this volume of water is at a height of 175 meters above the sea level, providing significant weight and potential energy.
Currently, three gorges are the main elements of the Chinese energy system. Its power is 22,500 megavatts, and it produces as much energy as 15 nuclear reactors.
And so NASA scientists have recently confirmed that the hydroelectric power station has caused a small but tangible change in soil circulation, as a result of which the duration of the days increased by 0.06 microseconds, and the planet’s axis moved nearly 2 centimeters.
“For the reference, it will be a little more than 3 days for the entire period of the universe,” Dr. Chao.
According to American scientists, accumulated water in the Chinese dam changed land distribution. Which, in turn, increased the moment of the planet’s motion, such as a skater that slowed down, expanding his hands.
Earlier it was learned that in China the largest power station in the world south of Tibet will be built. It will cost about $ 140 billion in its construction. According to forecasts, this hydroelectric power station exceeds the hydroelectric power station indicators of three gorges more than three times.
It has also been reported that China has launched the world’s largest Gaes Fennin. It is designed to produce 6.61 billion kWh of electricity per year.
