Giving Students A Better Understanding Of The Concepts Behind The Coriolis Force, Ridge Cole
Physics Capstone Projects
The Coriolis force is a physical phenomenon that has proven difficult for students to understand for centuries. While the mathematical approach to teaching this phenomenon is well known and outlined, the concepts behind this force have proven to be very elusive to students. Through the use of modern technology and new ways of presenting these concepts, we hope to give students a clear understanding of the Coriolis force in the future.
