The Earth spins at different speeds depending on your latitude. At the equator, it rotates about 1,000 mph, but as you move towards the poles, the speed decreases. This is due to the Earth's spherical shape. Here's an explanation: https://earthsky.org/space/does-earth-rotate-faster-at-the-equator #EarthRotation
