yeah omg my teacher sucks at explaining ( and the book doesnt even try to explain it!!) but this video is the only one that helped me understand cuz it actually makes sense!
For years I’ve been trying to understand the coriolis effect. This video just helped me to finally understand it in under 3 minutes. Thank you sooo much.
Without exagerating, my geography teacher tried to explain this to our class in around 2-3 lessons but no one understood it. So now i just watch this short 2 minute video and i understand it perfectly well. Thank you!!
I have no idea why I had difficulty understanding such a simple concept. Great explanation, I kid you not, I've thought about coriolis force and tried to understand it on 4 or 5 different occasions over the last year. Thank you for clarifying this. Now I understand it well enough to teach others. Top tier video!
Best explanation on the subject. I've tried to understand coriolis through various aviation and weather texts (on and off for 10 years) and this finally made me understand. Thank you.
This is literally the best explanation of Coriolis Force !!! I was having a hard time understanding it with crystal clarity but no video other than this one was of my help...
This is the best explanation that I have been provided which also explains the intuition behind. A few other ones I listened to either renders the technically correct definition alone like memorizing a formula without understanding or explains with no sync between audio, visual and intuition. Thank you *Simply Put*
I work for a carnival, and when I first started there i was the one to explain to all my coworkers why all of our rides are designed to spin counter clockwise and not clockwise. They knew that for some reason or another, mechanisms that rotate clockwise in the northern hemisphere accumulate more wear and tear and thus require more maintenance than ones that spin counterclockwise. But they didn’t understand why, and some of them even assumed it was all a conspiracy
Excellent explanation! I need this for middle school science. I have watched countless videos on coriolis effect and this was the clearest explanation out of all of them.
This video is amazing. I heard of this effect and tried reading on it to understand it and couldn't make sense of it. You managed to completely explain it in 2 minutes. Kudos
Very good videos. I like the way you show how the speed of the rotation explains the Coriolis Effect. I was told about the effect in high school but was never explained why. Now it's clear.
Thank you so much. I've been trying to understand this thing (kind of difficult because of dislexia) and you just made it so clear. Keep on teaching :)
Wow! Excellent. I finally get it. I am studying for my PPL (pilot license) and had difficulties really inderstanding this. I totally get it now. Super effective explanation! Thanks!!!
I have watched like 6-7 videos and still couldn't completely understood the concept but this video just cleared my concept in 2 mins . Very well explained
I have heard stories if snipers taking shots over absurd distances, around 2-3km and I wonder if they had to consider the coriolis effect. I doubt it but if so it must be impossible to estimate, right?
maybe because you don't pay attention to your professor's explanations. Are u playing with your cell ,talking to your mates or simply falling asleep for all the cannabis you've smoked in the toilet?
@@mlccrl For one thing, I'm not sure why you'd target me in this warlike campaign against an archetype that in no way resembles me. For another, I'm not sure what would even lead you to think that I smoked cannabis on the toilet! I mean, were YOU high while you wrote that? I took time out of my day to find a video explaining a scientific concept that my teacher explained poorly, whereas you took time out of your day to put down and insult a person for looking to the internet to answer an academic question. Based on the little (but illuminating) evidence present, I'd say that it would be easy, even for a cannabis smoking toilet dweller, to determine who's making better life choices here. Good day.
@@sorenficklin5884 You took the chance to promote yourself as a bright example of perfect student. So u can promote yourself as u wish but the fact is that all the students put the blame on professors to justify their behaviour which makes impossible any kind of learning even with a Nobel prize as teacher. This is the real act of war, to disparage professionals to hide personal responsabilities.
@@mlccrl I would never disparage a teacher. He is teaching an introductory class to oceanography and didn’t have much time at all to describe the concept, so i needed to turn to online sources to get the full scoop on how the Coriolis effect works. Also don’t know what you’re talking about from a standpoint of self promotion, but go off.
This video does an excellent job explaining why deflection occurs on an object moving north south or vice versa, I could use some elaboration on how this effects East West (or reverse) movement, which also bends/deflects from the Coriolois effect
Funny how they say long range snipers have to adjust for the earths rotation.. but you can't get in a hot air balloon and let the earth move beneath you because the atmosphere spins too? Seems a bit strange.
Question: @ 2:13, it shows one cloud moving down and to the right, and another moving up and to the right. But the yellow circular arrows within the red glow of the low pressure system "L" move opposite the motion of the clouds. Why is this? It seems contradictory. Based on the previous explanation of winds moving away from the equator "getting ahead," and those moving toward the equator "falling behind," it seems that there should be Counter-Clock Wise storm systems in the southern hemisphere, but there aren't. Thank you for any answers!
You are my savior, my hero and my god. You just put an end to an almost fruitless research that messed with my sleep schedule for too long. Now I can go to sleep at peace, and enjoy a deserved and long awaited rest. From the bottom of my heart, from somewhere deep in Italy, thank you.
THANK YOU. this video was so well explained Ive been needing a simple explanation as to why hurricanes spins in opposite directions in the different hemispheres
I LOVE it when someone puts three minutes of information into a three minute video as opposed to the normal RUclips paradigm of cramming three minutes of info into a fifteen minute presentation.
I have always thought about the coriolis effect. All the videos that explain this effect always show an object traveling from the equator to the poles or vice versa. That makes sense because as you are traveling the surface speed changes underneath you. What if you are at the 45 deg line and you travel / shoot directly with or against the earths rotation? The coriolis effect cannot have an influence because no surface speed change is present. You will however shoot low or high due to the rotation of the earth depending if you shoot towards or against the rotation.
Love this! But I have to make a correction. The air in the northern hemisphere entering the low pressure system of a hurricane deflects to the right -for BOTH the fast moving equatorial air and the slow moving polar air. It is animated correctly but the audio is incorrect. You have to put yourself from the perspective of the wind's motion. It is moving from north to south so a rightward deflection would be to the west. Would LOVE it if you could post a correction. I will be using this with my classroom!
Glad to see people using this :) I don't think I'll be able to make any corrections, but I think everything is explained correctly. I don't like changing reference points during an explanation because in my mind that's how things get confusing, To see the air moving to the right from the N-S direction, you'd need to flip the map around, changing perspective entirely. Just my thoughts though, I hope your students enjoy!
Yep. I understand the frame of reference change can be jarring. Even if it is potentially confusing, I prefer everything be 100% accurate. It helps them to know there is a 'rule' of right deflection in the north and left deflection in the south. The video is certainly very high quality that it is worth showing and I will give the disclaimer directly to students when viewing. Thank you! You have made a difficult concept understandable.
Great video! Visually just one minor thing from 1:29-1:33 your red ground-track arrows are turning the wrong way. All arrows in the Northern Hemisphere should be curving right, while arrows in the Southern Hemisphere should be curving left. You got it right from 1:05-1:25 :)
I was trying to think of an analogy to try and help you understand but I cant think of one thats any good. As a Mechanical Engineer Major mechanical Forces and Motion are just very inituitive for me so am able to visualize it quite easily. Sometimes you just gotta have the right brain for different stuff. Similar how Electricity and Magnetism makes No sense to me, but is somehow very intuitive for Electrical Engineers.

At any rate, I’m glad you decided to make this short video so it didn’t take me an hour to relearn why the direction of storms is CCW in northern hemisphere.
It explains the circular motion (since it's essentially a massive hurricane) but what caused it to form and what gave it such longevity is still up for debate I think! Great application of knowledge though!
Glad you mentioned the toilet misconception

So that's what Cpt. Price was on about in COD 4, still confused on how it affects bullets though.
I guess if the bullet travels FAR enough, coriolis might influence its path, but for most cases, coriolis effect should be negligible
Probably the same thing, but replace the cloud with the bullet
I have heard stories if snipers taking shots over absurd distances, around 2-3km and I wonder if they had to consider the coriolis effect.
I doubt it but if so it must be impossible to estimate, right?
