The Coriolis Effect Due to Earth's Rotation

Learn how Earth’s rotation causes the Coriolis effect, with this video from NOVA. Use this resource to visualize the abstract concept of the Coriolis effect and to provide opportunities for students to use evidence to support a claim about the influence of the Coriolis effect on hurricanes, jet stre

Q 11 Mutarotation in glucose

alpha-glucose and beta-glucose are in balance. This can be demonstrated by measuring the angle of rotation of linearly polarized light. Original: "Wolfgang Dukorn" Original: German. All translations in this video have been done by the alugha AI.

The Polarimeter - Setup and Measurement

The polarimeter is an important measuring instrument for determining the specific angle of rotation of an optically active substance. This first video is exclusively about the construction of a polarimeter. Afterwards, a short measurement is also carried out. Only in another video will I explain how

What's Unusual About Mercury? | NASA Planetary Sciences

Discover why Mercury has a tail like a comet, and why its poles are covered in ice despite its close proximity to the Sun. Mercury, the closest planet to the Sun, rotates three times on its axis every two of its years. Despite having temperatures that are hot enough to melt lead, the tilt of the pla
