Sign in to saveAlso known as Foucault's pendulum
esperimento scientifico per dimostrare il moto di rotazione della terra intorno a se stessa
A Foucault pendulum is a simple device that swings back and forth in a fixed plane while the Earth rotates beneath it, making it appear to change direction over time. By observing this shift in the pendulum's swing, people can see direct physical proof that the Earth is rotating.
