| A famous example is a Foucault pendulum. Such a pendulum is expected to return to its original position after a full rotation of the earth in 24 hrs. However, it doesn’t. It picks up an angle, called Hannay’s angle. | A famous example is a Foucault pendulum. Such a pendulum is expected to return to its original position after a full rotation of the earth in 24 hrs.
