| 21. | That is why every research in physics is blocked, especially every research about Coriolis force.
|
| 22. | The animation at the top of this article is a classic illustration of Coriolis force.
|
| 23. | In that sense gravity is a force similar to centrifuge force or to Coriolis force.
|
| 24. | In the non-inertial frame of the Earth, the fictitious Coriolis force is necessary to explain observations.
|
| 25. | The local horizontal direction of the Coriolis force is thus \ Omega \ sin \ varphi.
|
| 26. | Thus, the Coriolis force is always at an angle \ varphi with the local vertical direction.
|
| 27. | :The Coriolis acceleration ( and hence the Coriolis force ) only exists when using polar co-ordinates.
|
| 28. | The geostrophic wind component is the result of the balance between Coriolis force and pressure gradient force.
|
| 29. | In fact the south flowing Agulhas Current swings away from the African coastline between about Coriolis forces.
|
| 30. | Early in the 20th century, the term Coriolis force began to be used in connection with meteorology.
