Coriolis

Investigate the impact of rotation on a ball rolled across a disc The Coriolis program is designed to replicate the merry-go-round animation found on the WW2010 website, but to provide an interactive platform for students to investigate. The program shows a rotating disc that has the capability to spin in both directions The action can be viewed from outside the rotational frame of reference, or from within the rotational frame of reference. The primary objective of the Coriolis program is to provide students the means by which to discover how and why the Coriolis effect works. Get the Coriolis application and give it a try to see how useful it can actually be for you!
