Sentence examples for demonstrate the rotation from inspiring English sources

Newton bluntly refused to correspond but, nevertheless, went on to mention an experiment to demonstrate the rotation of Earth: let a body be dropped from a tower; because the tangential velocity at the top of the tower is greater than that at the foot, the body should fall slightly to the east.

Inspired by Foucault's Pendulum, the device used to demonstrate the rotation of the Earth, UVA asked, "What if we could re-create [Foucault's] experiment but take control of it?" The result is a hypnotic and unforgettable exhibition open to the public through June. .

Around 1913, he described an experiment where an examination of the motion of water in a circular tube demonstrated the rotation of the earth.

White stands up now, demonstrating the rotations, rattling out the names of the new moves and then pauses, frowning slightly.

The fast Fourier transform (FFT) patterns of a1 and a2 show the typical hexagonal crystalline structures of monolayer graphene and demonstrate the same rotation angles, meaning the graphene lying on both sides (a1 and a2) of this SWCNT belong to the same monolayer graphene grain.

The test results also demonstrate that the rotation capacities of beam column joints based on the experimental results in this study were much higher than the recommended values.

The results of our analyses are consistent with previous studies (Bettinger et al. 2009; Davis et al. 2001) and demonstrate that the rotation period length, as well as stand, site and socioeconomic conditions, all have the expected effects on SEV.

The test results demonstrate that the rotation of principal stress can result in significant plastic deformation, volumetric strain, and non-coaxiality (non-coincidence of the increment direction of principal plastic strain with the principal stress direction) of TJ-1 lunar soil simulant.

Here we demonstrate that the rotation of the sheathed flagellum in both the mutualist Vibrio fischeri and the pathogen Vibrio cholerae promotes release of a potent bacteria-derived immunogen, lipopolysaccharide, found in the flagellar sheath.

The relatively low permeability and selectivity of these PIs, as compared to Polymers of Intrinsic Microporosity (PIMs) that also contain spirocyclic structures, demonstrate the importance of restricting rotation within the polymer chain, which is a key structural feature of the PIMs.
