Rotația Pământului chiar influențează felul în care se scurge apa, dar nu în chiuveta ta. De ce mitul emisferelor nu se confirmă
The belief that water drains in opposite directions in the two hemispheres is based on the Coriolis effect, but it is not observable in household sinks. Experts explain that other factors, such as the shape of the sink and the initial movement of water, have a greater influence on the draining direction. The Coriolis effect requires large distances and time to be significant, which is not the case in typical household scenarios. Controlled experiments have shown the effect in action, but only under specific conditions. Thus, while the Coriolis effect is real, it does not dictate the behavior of water in everyday plumbing.
