Which object best represents the shape of earth. table tennis ball, a football, an egg or a pear?

A ping pong ball. The flattening of the earth from rotation is not easily visible. The earth is a smooth as the ball. If you consider the deepest depths and the highest heights of the Earth as a proportion of the diameter, the variance is less than one thousandth.

football or egg
Reply:i guess a tble tennis ball, but it would be more accurate if you squeezed the two sides a bit, because the earth isnt perfectly spherical, its a little wider around the equator.
