Why are the vortices in the flow always clockwise?

Your conclusion is wrong.

Professor Shepiro thinks in the northern hemisphere.

Both water and typhoon vortices rotate in a counterclockwise direction, while in the Southern Hemisphere, on the contrary, water rotates in a clockwise direction to form a whirlpool. And what about the equator in the middle ground? It's no whirlpool!

This aroused great interest in the academic community at the time, scientists from various countries.

They all did experiments to confirm Shepiro's speculation, and the results were exactly as he said.

As we all know, when an object moves perpendicular to the earth's latitude on the surface of the earth, the linear speed of the earth's rotation will change due to different latitudes, however, all objects with mass have inertia, so the object will maintain the tendency of the original direction of motion relative to the ground, which is the geostrophic deflection force.

Also known as Coriolis force.

It is not a real force in the traditional sense, but an inertial force.

It is most pronounced at the poles, gradually weakening towards the equator until it disappears at the equator. We often mistakenly think that the whirlpool formed when the bathtub and pool is discharged is related to the Coriolis force, but in fact, the influence of the Coriolis force is minimal, because the Coriolis force has a visible effect and needs to move long distances. So, why does the water in the bathtub and pool whirlpool whirlpool, which is actually the friction effect of the water flow against the bathtub wall.

When the water falls towards the drainage port due to its own gravity, the water flow rubs against some subtle unevenness at the bottom of the tank, and the solid surface will form a tangential force relative to the movement of the water body, just like a spiral pill.

In that way, the vortex is "rubbed" out, and then it is constantly amplified, forming a vortex visible to the naked eye.

In fact, the whirlpool in the ocean has little to do with the Coriolis force, it is actually formed by the intersection of forward and reverse currents, squeezing each other, or due to external forces, when the fluid in a single direction turns sharply, it will also form a whirlpool.

The low-pressure cyclone and high-pressure anticyclonic systems should be most closely related to the geostrophic deflection force. When a strong low pressure center appears somewhere on the surface, it will quickly attract the surrounding atmosphere to move towards the center, and the atmosphere will be subjected to obvious Coriolis force in long-distance movement, in Coriolis force, pressure gradient force and friction force.

Under the influence of the action, a huge cyclone will be formed.

The vortex in the water flow is always counterclockwise, because in the north then its vortex is affected by gravity, then it is counterclockwise, if it is in the south, its vortex is in a clockwise direction, which is caused by gravity and the rotation of the earth, which is a phenomenon.

This flow of water is clockwise, so the whirlpool will also rotate clockwise, so everything depends on the direction of the water flow to determine the direction of rotation of the whirlpool.

Vortex xuánwō

A spiral-shaped vortex formed by the flow of water in a low-lying area.

When a flush toilet flushes, the water flow creates a vortex that drains down the drain space. It has been theorized that in the Northern Hemisphere, the vortex is counterclockwise; In the Southern Hemisphere, it rotates clockwise. And the reason for this phenomenon is due to the rotation of the earth.

In fact, the role of the Earth's rotation is very weak, so it is difficult to influence the direction of water flow. You can easily verify this in some washrooms, whether counterclockwise or clockwise, and the direction of the vortex depends on the structure of the sink, not the northern and southern hemispheres.

Think about how the water vortex came about, most of the information, even the physics teacher tells us that the water vortex is because of the Coriolis force, so the northern hemisphere is clockwise, and the southern hemisphere is counterclockwise, and the Coriolis force does cause the change of wind direction on the earth, but does the Coriolis force affect the water vortex? If the Coriolis force affects the water vortex, then we should also be affected by the Coriolis force when we play basketball and pool ball, but it seems that it is not. In fact, the water flow vortex is only caused by the unstability of the water tank or the original disturbance in the water, if the water rotates a little clockwise at the beginning, when the water gradually leaks, due to the conservation of angular momentum, the angular velocity is bound to increase, and we will also see the water flow vortex, assuming that the bottom of the water tank is completely level, and there is no disturbance in the water at all, then no matter where it is, the water will flow directly downward, there is no whirlpool, so there is no so-called northern hemisphere clockwise flow, The southern hemisphere is counterclockwise, which is just a product of someone Coriolis force explanation, and if you don't believe it, you can find a different tank to do the experiment.

If the current vortex is coriolis force, then there is no specific direction for the current vortex on the equator.

This has to do with you being in the northern and southern hemispheres of the planet. If you are in the Northern Hemisphere, then the swirls in the current are clockwise; Conversely, if you are in the Southern Hemisphere, then the swirls in the current are counterclockwise. There is a strong magnetic field around the earth, and the motion of the object is affected by the magnetic field to produce vortices.

This is the result of the rotation of the Earth, and the water flow is counterclockwise in the Northern Hemisphere and clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere! Give it a point! Thank you!

Because the Earth rotates from west to east, the Northern Hemisphere is clockwise, and the Southern Hemisphere should be counterclockwise!

That's because you're in the Northern Hemisphere, and in the Southern Hemisphere it's counterclockwise. This is due to the rotation of the Earth.

It doesn't have to be counterclockwise, we are in the northern hemisphere, it is counterclockwise, in the southern hemisphere it is clockwise. In the Northern Hemisphere, objects moving in a north-south direction will be deflected to the right, which is affected by the geostrophic deflection force. In fact, it is not only this, the right bank of the river is washed by the current to a much higher extent than the left bank; The winds blowing from north to south on the earth always turn to the east wind; Tornado's'Rotation is due to the influence of geostrophic deflection forces.

Physics calls this force the Coriolis force.

Take a bath, for example, it's a very common thing. However, Professor Shepiro, chair of the Department of Mechanical Engineering at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology in the United States, is keenly aware that every time the bath water is released, the swirl of the water always rotates in a counterclockwise direction.

Why is that? Shepiro clung to this question mark and carried out repeated experiments and studies. In 1962, he published **, arguing that this kind of vortex is related to the rotation of the earth, and if the earth stops rotating, this kind of vortex will not be produced, because the earth is constantly rotating from west to east, and the United States is in the northern hemisphere, so the bathwater rotates in a counterclockwise direction, and the typhoon in the northern half of the road also rotates in a counterclockwise direction, and the reason is the same as the vortex of bathwater water.

He also asserted that if in the Southern Hemisphere, the whirlpool of bathwater would rotate in a clockwise direction, at the equator, no whirlpool would form. His insight aroused great interest among scientists from all over the world, who conducted experiments in various places, and the results proved that Shepiro's conclusions were completely correct.

Because the earth is affected by the geostrophic deflection force. The water in the Northern Hemisphere experiences a force to the right, so it is turning clockwise. Whereas, the Southern Hemisphere experiences a force to the left, so it is counterclockwise.

Due to the geostrophic deflection force, when the object moves perpendicular to the earth's latitude on the earth's surface, because the earth's rotation linear speed changes with latitude, due to inertia, the object will have a tendency to maintain the direction of motion of the original speed relative to the ground, which is called geostrophic deflection force.

In the Northern Hemisphere, the object moves from south to north, and the linear velocity of the Earth's rotation becomes smaller (the linear velocity is maximum at the equator), and the object keeps its linear velocity unchanged due to inertia, so it is biased to the east, and the relative direction of motion is to the right.

When moving from north to south, the linear velocity of the Earth's rotation increases, so it is biased to the west, and the relative direction of motion is also to the right. Therefore, when the object in the northern hemisphere moves, it is uniformly subjected to the rightward geostrophic deflection force. In the same way, objects are uniformly subjected to a leftward geostrophic deflection force when moving in the southern hemisphere.

Because the water starts to flow in different directions, the walls in the pool are tilted at different angles, and as soon as the water flows, a whirlpool will be formed. As soon as the water rotates, the centrifugal force kicks in, and even in opposition to the Coriolis force, it accumulates with the deflection effect, forming a vortex that coincides with the initial direction of rotation.

Whirlpools are everywhere, and it can be said that where there are differences, there is the possibility of whirlpools. A vortex is a spiral confluence formed by two or more strands of energy with different directions, flow velocities, temperatures, etc., when they come into contact with each other, and are entangled with each other. The confluence forms an inlet and an exit in and out in the direction of the axis of the vortex plane.

At the inlet, the confluence is inhaled.

At the outlet, the confluence is ejected. The entrance is the equivalent of a so-called black hole; The exit is equivalent to the so-called "cosmic big **". Among the two or more strands of energy that form a vortex, the energy with fast velocity and high temperature is positive, and conversely, the energy with slow flow rate and low temperature is negative. This is actually the so-called yin-yang fish.

In the whirlpool, when viewed from the outside of the whirlpool, the inlet is negative and the outlet is positive; From the inside of the whirlpool, the entrance is positive and the exit is negative. This is why the Liangshan Zheng Yin and Yang Fish also has a pair of Yin and Yang eyes.

The role of the geostrophic deflection force The geostrophic code contains the causes of the rotational deflection force, and the following is an analysis of the northern hemisphere Since the angular velocity of each latitude is the same, when flying from north to south, the circle in the south is large, so the linear velocity is large, so a small linear velocity in the north is slower than the linear velocity in the south, so it deviates to the right due to inertia. It's the same with going north, from a fast place to a slow place, the speed is 'ahead', and the direction of progress is also deviated to the right. Fly along the latitude to the east and west, at this time, because the direction of gravity points to the center of the earth, and the direction of the latitude circle points to the center of the circle is not the center of the earth, you can think about it, so because of this angle, the centripetal force can not completely cancel out the centrifugal force that you rotate around the center of the circle of the parallel, so a synthesis, it will also deviate to the right.

So the vortex formed is clockwise, and if it is in the southern hemisphere, the situation is just the opposite, so the vortex is counterclockwise, and the equator is not affected by the geostrophic deflection force, because the center of the earth is exactly the center of the circle of the latitudinal circle, and the two coincide, and the gravity can cancel out the outward force. The higher the latitude, the greater the geostrophic deflection force.

But it is said that the relationship between this and the northern and southern hemispheres is not so simple, and the southern hemisphere also turns counterclockwise.
