  2. Clockwise - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Clockwise

    In general, most card games, board games, parlor games, and multiple team sports play in a clockwise turn rotation in Western Countries and Latin America and there is typically resistance to playing counterclockwise. Traditionally, and for the most part today, turns pass counterclockwise in many Asian countries.

  3. Optical rotation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Optical_rotation

    Dextrorotation and laevorotation (also spelled levorotation) [1] [2] in chemistry and physics are the optical rotation of plane-polarized light.From the point of view of the observer, dextrorotation refers to clockwise or right-handed rotation, and laevorotation refers to counterclockwise or left-handed rotation.

  4. Loss of tail-rotor effectiveness - Wikipedia

    With puller tail-rotors, that is wind from the same side as the tail rotor. For main rotors with clockwise rotation (European), that is wind from 3 o'clock. For main rotors with counter-clockwise rotation, that is wind from 9 o'clock. Analysis of flight test data verifies that the tail rotor does not stall.

  5. Conrotatory and disrotatory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Conrotatory_and_disrotatory

    In conrotatory mode, both atomic orbitals of the end groups turn in the same direction (such as both atomic orbitals rotating clockwise or counter-clockwise). In disrotatory mode, the atomic orbitals of the end groups turn in opposite directions (one atomic orbital turns clockwise and the other counter-clockwise).

    are arranged around the chiral center carbon atom. With the hydrogen atom away from the viewer, if the arrangement of the CO→R→N groups around the carbon atom as center is counter-clockwise, then it is the L form. [14] If the arrangement is clockwise, it is the D form. As usual, if the molecule itself is oriented differently, for example ...

  7. Graham scan - Wikipedia

    Now the stack contains the convex hull, where the points are oriented counter-clockwise and P0 is the first point. Here, next_to_top() is a function for returning the item one entry below the top of stack, without changing the stack, and similarly, top() for returning the topmost element. This pseudocode is adapted from Introduction to Algorithms.

  9. Polarimeter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polarimeter

    The optical activity of enantiomers is additive. If different enantiomers exist together in one solution, their optical activity adds up. That is why racemates are optically inactive, as they nullify their clockwise and counter clockwise optical activities. The optical rotation is proportional to the concentration of the optically active ...
