  3. Screw thread - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_thread

    Threads oriented in the opposite direction are known as left-handed (LH). By common convention, right-handedness is the default handedness for screw threads. Therefore, most threaded parts and fasteners have right-handed threads. Left-handed thread applications include: Where the rotation of a shaft would cause a conventional right-handed nut ...

    Conversely the ball will move from left to right for a left-handed player. These characteristics are achieved with sidespin by either an in-to-out swingpath or a closed clubface, relative to the swingpath, at impact. A fade is a stroke played with the effect that, for a right-handed player, the ball moves from left to right during flight ...

    A golf ball beside a hole. A golf ball is a ball designed to be used in golf.Under the rules of golf, a golf ball has a mass no more than 1.620 oz (45.93 g), has a diameter not less than 1.680 inches (42.67 mm), and performs within specified velocity, distance, and symmetry limits.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Screw_mechanism

    Threads oriented in the opposite direction are known as left-handed (LH). By common convention, right-handedness is the default handedness for screw threads. [21] Therefore, most threaded parts and fasteners have right-handed threads. One explanation for why right-handed threads became standard is that for a right-handed person, tightening a ...

  7. Sinistral and dextral - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sinistral_and_dextral

    Chirality, however, is observer-independent: no matter how one looks at a right-hand screw thread, it remains different from a left-hand screw thread. Therefore, a symmetric object has sinistral and dextral directions arbitrarily defined by the position of the observer, while an asymmetric object that shows chirality may have sinistral and ...

  8. Helix angle - Wikipedia

    Similarly, one may construct a double-thread screw provided that the helix angle of the two cuts is the same, and that the second cut is positioned in the uncut material between the grooves of the first. For certain applications, triple and quadruple threads are in use. [3] The helix may be cut either right hand or left hand.

  9. Precession (mechanical) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Precession_(mechanical)

    Bicycle pedals are left-threaded on the left-hand crank so that precession tightens the pedal rather than loosening it. This may seem counter-intuitive since the pedals rotate in the direction that would unscrew them from the cranks, but the torque exerted due to the precession is several orders of magnitude greater than that caused by bearing friction or even a jammed pedal bearing.
