There was no response. Then she turned the doorknob clockwise and anti clockwise. It made a squeaky sound but it was locked.

The term “Widdershins” (deriving from the Old High German words widar meaning “back/against” and sinnen, “to travel”) means “counterclockwise”, “anticlockwise”, “left-handed direction” or even “coursing in the opposite direction of the sun, in the Northern Hemisphere”. The earliest use of the word, according to the Oxford English Dictionary, shows up in 1513 in the form of the phrase ‘widdersyns start my hair,’, in other words, ‘my hair stood on end,’. ‘Hair standing on end’ or ‘wild/disorderly hair’

The commercial cube is composed of 26 visible pieces and one central core. These two distinct components of the Rubik’s cube are what maintain the shape of the Rubik’s cube. The shape of the core can be visualized as a central, three-axis spindle with six attached octagons, one on each face of the cube. These are referred to as octagonal extensions and are what allow the free movement and rotation of the cube. Attached to these six core pieces are six center pieces, one of three piece types: center

The swastika has an interesting history. It
DOORS AND WINDOWS Window is an essential element in building. It can be define as an opening in a wall that allow the flow of air and light into the building.

Hurricanes are storms with wind and rain, and while it is moving across the Atlantic Ocean. Tornadoes have a circular motion when moving. When a tornado is moving basically looks

In 1910 when Maria was four her father moved to Göttingen where Maria stayed and spent most of her life until she was married.

Therefore the sequence 0, 1, 2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, is called a recursive sequence. When the recursive numbers are arranged in a certain way, this sequence creates a spiral pattern and this pattern is reflected in various places in real life (nature). Defining my own recursive sequences; see if I can create one that models something I have seen. To create a recursive sequence, the squares can be drawn on the Fibonacci sequence as it is observed in the picture to the right. The squares

imperative to making sure the vehicle stayed where it was supposed to. To add to the struggle of simply being on the opposite side, more bamboozling situations arose that added to the mayhem. In the US, roundabouts rotate counter-clockwise, but in the UK, they revolve clockwise. Imagine driving around a rotary the “wrong” way and then exiting on the “wrong” side. Making sure we stayed on the correct side of the road, headed the right direction on the rotaries, and steadily delivering positive affirmations

The swastika is a symbol of prosperity and good fortune is widely distributed throughout the ancient and modern world. In 1920 the swastika was turned to a meaning that Hitler and the Nazis created during the time of holocaust and forever changed this symbol for everyone. The Nazi Party was a political party in Germany, led by Adolf Hitler from 1921 to 1945, whose central tenets
principle is of the utmost importance to aerodynamics, and likewise plays a significant role in the operation of a curveball. At the top of the ball, its clockwise spin is moving in a direction opposite to the airflow. This produces drag, slowing the ball, increasing pressure, and thus forcing it downward. At the bottom end of the ball, however, the clockwise motion is flowing with the air, thus resulting in higher velocity and lower pressure. As per Bernoulli's principle, this tends to pull the ball downward
Tropical Cyclones Introduction You wake up in the morning to the sound of rain rattling against your window. You look down on the floor which is ankle deep with water. The howling of wind fills your ears and you realize that there is a hurricane happening. You are panicking as you go around the house looking for your family but none of them are there. After a few minutes the water has reached you’re reached your head. You can barely breathe anymore as you start to choke. Every year many people are
1. Resonance is the reason that the shape of the coastline affects the tides. What Resonance does is it changes the normal tide oscillations. When it does this it affects the way of the tides and how they form. This is not a minor affect either the way the coastline is shaped can lead to quite large tide changes. There are three major types of tides the first is Diurnal Tides: This tide is your standard single high and a single low tide which occurs each day. They usually occur in various areas when
be smooth and fluid (McCaw, n.d). The last principle for the force producing phase is linear motion. In this phase the start of pirouette should be gaining momentum (Hall, 2011). The direction the pirouette is going in is clockwise because the body is rotating counter clockwise. As a dancer is performing a pirouette an outside force is acting on the body. This force is what causes the body to be able to turn. When the dancer starts the body is at rest and not moving until they initiate the turn with
