Multiple Choice
Many people think that water draining from a sink rotates in a particular direction due to something called the Coriolis effect due to the rotation of the earth. Furthermore, such people frequently argue that the direction is reversed in opposite hemisphere. In reality, the Coriolis effect in that situation is so small
