Coriolis Force: How to Navigate a Straight Line on a Spinning Disk? A Microcosm of Earth's Rotation
Have you ever wondered why hurricanes spin in a vortex? The answer lies in a fascinating physical phenomenon known as the Coriolis force. It describes how the path of an object moving in a straight line will appear to curve from the perspective of a rotating frame of reference. Our interactive exhibit, "Coriolis Force," allows you to engage with this principle firsthand.
The exhibit consists of a central turntable, a surrounding slide track, and a variety of uniquely shaped rollers. When you press the button to start the turntable spinning and then roll a ball straight towards it from the track, you will observe its path curve into intriguing arcs. This is not an error in your aim but a direct demonstration of the Coriolis effect, mirroring how Earth's rotation influences the trajectories of winds and ocean currents.
This installation transforms an abstract scientific concept into a visible and hands-on journey of discovery. At our company, we believe the most effective learning comes from interaction and experience. As this exhibit demonstrates, we specialize in converting complex scientific theories into captivating interactive installations. If you are intrigued by the educational potential of the "Coriolis Force" exhibit, we are delighted to exclusively customize an exhibit that belongs uniquely to you, whether for a science museum, school, or corporate lobby, to create thought-provoking interactive experiences together.
