Cyclones/Toilets Flush....... (PROOF THE EARTH ROTATES)

How do you explain that when you flush the toilet it flushes and swirls. if the earth did not rotate it would go straight down.

examples:

In the US toilets flush counter clock wise.
On the Equator toilets flush straight down.
In Australia toilets flush clock wise.



how do you explain this?


Also Cyclones they spin different ways depending which side of the equator they are on.

Toilets don't flush straight down ... all that water can't fit through that hole all at once, you know.

go to Kenya or Brazil and flush one you will see.

I'm saying that the motion of the toilet water on the equator must be circular, because all of that water can't fit in it at once.

Plus, during my job as a dishwasher at the Pizza Ranch, I could force the water to spin either way ... your argument isn't very valid ...

We went through this already.  The design of the sink, tub, toilet determines which direction the water flows.

actually it is...

ok then.. cyclones. they spin different ways depending which side of the equator they are on. this is known as the Coriolis effect. and it only works on a round earth that rotates and has gravity.

I want you to be the one to test this.   :lol:

it has been tested many times.

The ":lol:" should have told you I had a funny mental image.

Have a look here.

That's the most retarded answer ever. If that was why it was that way, then why don't you just order one from a place on the Equator, and flush it in your house. If you say that the government wouldn't let you, then just try taking one yourself, and bring it to America and flush it.

It might be the most retarded answer ever, but it was discovered by your RE scientists...

RE scientists discovered that the Earth rotates, causing toilets to flush a certain way, considering where they are. So yes, I agree.

No, Re scientists discovered that the coriolis effect has no bearing on the direction a toilet spins. Look it up.

Sigh...Do I really have to go through this again?

The coriolis force is extremely weak.  The earth rotates once a day, the water in your toilet rotates much more than that.  The effect on the water by the coriolis force is very, very small.  Here is what your 'RE' scientists say:

Draining bathtubs/toilets
A popular misconception is that the Coriolis effect determines the direction in which bathtubs or toilets drain, and whether water always drains in one direction in the Northern Hemisphere, and in the other direction in the Southern Hemisphere. In reality, the Coriolis effect is a few orders of magnitude smaller than other random influences on drain direction, such as the geometry of the sink, toilet, or tub; whether it is flat or tilted; and the direction in which water was initially added to it. Note that toilets typically are designed to only flush in one rotation, by having the flush water enter at an angle.

This is less of a puzzle once one remembers that the earth revolves once per day but that a bathtub takes only minutes to drain. When the water is being drawn towards the drain, the radius with which it is spinning around it decreases, so its rate of rotation increases from the low background level to a noticeable spin in order to conserve its angular momentum (the same effect as ice skaters bringing their arms in to cause them to spin faster).

Compared to the rotations that one usually sees (tires on a travelling automobile, a compact disc playing music, or a draining sink), the rotation of the Earth is very small: only one rotation per day. The water in a sink might make a rotation in a few seconds and so have a rotation rate ten thousand times higher than that of the Earth. It should not be surprising, therefore, to learn that the Coriolis force is orders of magnitude smaller than any of the forces involved in these everyday spinning things. The Coriolis force is so small, that it plays no role in determining the direction of rotation of a draining sink anymore than it does the direction of a spinning CD.

The direction of rotation of a draining sink is determined by the way it was filled, or by vortices introduced while washing. The magnitude of these rotations may be small, but they are nevertheless gargantuan by comparison to the rotation of the Earth. I decided to include a picture of a draining sink, and the first one I tried in my house was found to drain clockwise (the opposite of what the silly assertions would have it do here in the northern hemisphere). This direction was determined entirely by the way the tap filled the sink. The direction of rotation of a draining toilet is determined by the way the water just under the rim is squirted into the bowl when it is flushed.

wikipedia is not a RELIABLE source. any flat earth co-conspirator can change the truth to there agenda.

and in this one.. http://www.ems.psu.edu/~fraser/Bad/BadCoriolis.html

you must agree with what it says, when it says proof the earth rotates is in hurricanes.

Did you also see in that site where it says that you can't see the effect of the coriolis in a toilet, or in a funnel, as you claim?

wikipedia is not a RELIABLE source. any flat earth co-conspirator can change the truth to there agenda.

Why wouldn't they simply change it to say the whole Coriolis force was a myth?

Wikipedia may be easily changable, but if you check the Encyclopedia Brittanica, it willsay the same thing abou the coriolis effect

Yea, back to the toilets, they generally have them designed so the water comes out at an angle all around the rim.  Then it spins whatever way it came out...
