Why is the earth round ? Here is a simple explanation that i found in Feynman's lectures on physics:
It is because of gravitation. Everything attracts everything else. Earth has attracted itself as far as it can. Hence the shape. It is not a perfect sphere as centrifugal forces at the equator makes it a little elliptical.
Interesting!
