About This Product
The bending of the jet makes the Coriolis force visible: a fictitious force that appears to act on objects moving within a rotating frame of reference. Changing the speed and direction of rotation and the pump rate lets students see how each one alters the deflection.
Frequently Asked Questions
What makes the water jet bend in the Coriolis Force Apparatus?
The deflection is due to the Coriolis force, which appears to act on objects moving within a rotating frame of reference, here the turning arm and tank.
