Pole fleeing force is a geophysical concept explains Continental drift. it suggests that a differential gravitational force (horizontal component of centrifugal force) and the Earth’s flattening would cause continental masses to drift slowly towards the equator. Wegener suggested that the movement responsible for the drifting of the continents was caused by pole-fleeing force and tidal force. The polar-fleeing force relates to the rotation of the earth. As the earth is not a perfect sphere; it has a bulge at the equator. This bulge is due to the rotation of the earth.

Pole flight force is a geophysical concept invoked in 1915 by Alfred Wegener to explain his ideas of Continental drift. He suggested that a differential gravitational force (horizontal component of centrifugal force) and the Earth's flattening would cause continental masses to drift slowly towards the equator.
