During Sunday's Superb Owl, there were some great tweets looking at science with some type of connection to football. Here is one that got me thinking: A 50-yard field goal in MetLife stadium will ...

The Coriolis effect is the apparent bending of winds and currents caused by Earth’s rotation, shaping the swirl of storms and ...

When multi-joint reaching movements are made within a rotating reference frame, additional interaction torques are generated in the form of Coriolis forces. Coriolis forces are a function of the cross ...

LOUISVILLE, Ky. (WAVE) - First to bust a long-standing myth: The rotation of the earth and the Coriolis effect have no impact on what direction your toilet or swimming pool drains. They do, however, ...

It affects ocean currents, weather patterns, and even the direction planes fly. The Coriolis effect has real impacts, but it’s actually just an “apparent force” that causes moving objects to be ...

Discover how the Coriolis effect shapes weather patterns across the globe, including ocean currents and a hurricane’s spin.

What is a fake force? Let me illustrate with an example. Suppose you want to use Newtonian mechanics. You know - where the net force is the rate a which the momentum changes with time? Or maybe you ...
