Extractions: He spent 9 years as a military engineer in the West Indies but his health suffered so, when the French Revolution began, he retired to the country to do scientific research. Worked on applied mechanics but is best known for his work on electricity and magnetism. He established experimentally the inverse square law for the force between two charges which became the basis of Poisson 's mathematical theory of magnetism. Coulomb also wrote on structural analysis, the fracture of beams, the fracture of columns, the thrust of arches and the thrust of the soil. Courant , Richard

Coriolis Force gustaveGaspard de coriolis When you stand with your back to the wind direction,wind is deflected to the right on the Northern Hemisphere, and to the left http://library.thinkquest.org/C001472/en/development/coriolis.content.html
Extractions: The Coriolis force is directly related to speed and latitude. Stronger winds are deflected more than slower winds. Winds at the poles are deflected more than winds near the equator. There isn't any Coriolis force at the equator. Because wind accelerates it gets more deflected as its speed gets higher, which explains the curving path of wind.

Extractions: Biographies Of Physicists Of Classical Mechanics Gaspard-Gustave de Coriolis Coriolis studied mechanics and engineering mathematics, in particular friction, hydraulics, machine performance and ergonomics. He introduced the terms 'work' and 'kinetic energy' with their present scientific meaning. Coriolis began developing his ideas in 1819 and he showed some papers to Poncelet in 1824. Both Coriolis and Poncelet published in 1829; the paper by Coriolis being Du Calcul de l'effet des machines. Despite the two papers appearing in 1829 there was no argument as to who initiated the idea, with Poncelet acknowledging that the word "work" was brought in by Coriolis. The article [5] simplifies this piece of history so much that it could be misleading on this point. The contribution of Coriolis, Poncelet, and Navier to the concept of 'work' is examined in detail in [6]. Coriolis proposed a unit of work, namely the 'dynamode'. The unit represents 1000 kilogram-metres and was proposed by Coriolis as a measure which could provide a sensible unit with which to measure the work which a person might do, a horse, or a steam engine. However, although his term 'work' has become standard, the dynamode did not prove popular as the unit of work. Newton Isaac Galilei Galileo Euler Leonhard Lagrange Joseph-Louis ...

Extractions: He was a smart guy. Using just a pen, paper and mathematics, he figured out why the wind turns, curves, and goes around in circles. It is because of a force called - what else - the Coriolis force. Monsieur Coriolis figured out something basic, but tricky to understand. To make it easier, here you can explore the Coriolis force with gadgets, games, and stories. What's up with the Coriolis force? Find out here!

Extractions: I am often asked by students whether their toilet bowls will flush clockwise or counterclockwise in the Southern Hemisphere. This would, of course, be important information if you were ever kidnapped and blindfolded and dropped off in a strange land. If we assume a commode of conventional size, then this "toilet bowl test" will fail because the answer lies in the manufacturer's design. But if your toilet bowl were a few hundred miles in diameter, then the Coriolis force of the rotating Earth would easily overcome the random water currents and force the bowl to empty its contents in a counterclockwise swirl. If you had Southern Hemisphere friends with an equally large toilet, then theirs would indeed empty in the opposite (clockwise) direction. The circulation within oversized flush toilets is a natural consequence of of motion on the surface of an object that rotates. We owe our detailed understanding of the effect to the French engineer and mathematician Gaspard Gustave de Coriolis, who, in 1835, described the laws of mechanics in a rotating reference frame.

Coriolis, Gaspard Gustave de (1792 -1843) was a French scientist who in 1835 worked out the mathematics of the motion of bodies on a rotating surface. The Essential of Oceanography about Coriolis effect "The apparent reflection of a moving object from its initial course when its speed and direction are measured in reference to the surface of the rotating Earth. The object is deflected to the right of its anticipated course in the Northern Hemisphere and to the left in the Southern Hemisphere. The deflection occurs for any horizontal movement of objects with mass and has no effect on the equator."

Rotations Of The Earth According to Harry F. Davis, writing in 1961, the coriolis acceleration is more by the French mathematician Gaspard gustave de coriolis (1792 1843). http://curvebank.calstatela.edu/earth/earth.htm
Extractions: Dray has also provided animations of a map of the Earth using vaious rotations about a fixed point or fixed line. Please click on the map below. This animation shows how to generate any rotation by using two successive 180 degree rotations about different axes. Background . . . . Briefly, Coriolis acceleration is the apparent acceleration one sees when observing particle motion from a rotating, rather an an inertial, reference frame. For instance, the needle of a phonograph moves (nearly) in a straight line, yet traces a spiral on the rotating record. Mathematically, this is equivalent to considering the opposite situation, such as an object moving along a radial line from the center of a rotating disk. You may visualize this phenomenon by placing yourself at the center of a merry-go-round and then walking toward the edge. [ Ignore the horses or any other obstruction. ] This situation is analyzed in the box below. For surface geometry, study the globe on the left. The black line gives the great circle path a frictionless hockey puck would follow if the Earth were not rotating. The blue line gives the great circle it actually follows. The red line shows the apparent path as seen from the Earth which rotates underneath the blue line - much as a phonograph rotates underneath the needle.

Extractions: in Space and on Earth An astronaut in low Earth orbit moves in (approximately) a big circle extending around the Earth. The acceleration required for such motion is provided by gravity mg(R E r) = mv r where the astronaut's weight mg on the Earth's surface at r = R E is adjusted on the left side for the greater distance. That is of course the same equation as the one used to demonstrate Newton's study of gravity. However, it can also be written mg (r R E r = That can be interpreted as stating that in the astronaut's frame of reference, all bodies are subject to two forces, gravity and the centrifugal force, and the two are in perfect balance, adding up to zero. Gravity is already kept fully occupied by supplying the ongoing acceleration (the first of the above equations); or The force of gravity is perfectly balanced by the centrifugal force (second equation). Take your choice! What if the spaceship's orbit is not circular but (say) elliptic? It makes no difference.
