The moment direction may be accounted for by using a stated sign convention, such as a plus sign (+) for counterclockwise moments and a minus sign (-) for clockwise moments, or vice versa.

In Euclidean space there are two types of Möbius strips depending on the direction of the half-twist: clockwise and counterclockwise.

For skaters who rotate in a counterclockwise direction, a spin on the left foot is called a forward or front spin, while a spin on the right foot is called a back spin.

According to the right-hand rule, the direction away from the observer is associated with clockwise rotation and the direction towards the observer with counterclockwise rotation, like a screw.

The tidal system rotates in a counterclockwise direction.

The cores can be magnetized in two different ways ( clockwise or counterclockwise ) and the bit stored in a core is zero or one depending on that core's magnetization direction.

By driving the current through the wires in a particular direction, the resulting induced field forces the selected core's magnetic flux to circulate in one direction or the other ( clockwise or counterclockwise ).

In Melbourne, Australia, waves commonly travel in a counterclockwise direction.

The unit vectors appropriate to spherical symmetry are:, the direction in which the radial distance from the origin increases ;, the direction in which the angle in the x-y plane counterclockwise from the positive x-axis is increasing ; and, the direction in which the angle from the positive z axis is increasing.

An approaching aspect occurs when a faster moving planet, or significator, is moving towards a slower moving planet, or promittor, is moving towards an aspect in the natural order of the zodiac, which is a counterclockwise direction.

# First, three of these terms are associated with sign ambiguities: the line integral could go around the loop in either direction ( clockwise or counterclockwise ); the vector area dS could point in either of the two directions normal to the surface ; and I < sub > enc </ sub > is the net current passing through the surface S, meaning the current passing through in one direction, minus the current in the other direction — but either direction could be chosen as positive.

) Traditionally, opposite sides of a die add up to seven, implying that the 1, 2 and 3 faces share a vertex ; these faces may be placed clockwise or counterclockwise about this vertex.

When seen from above, the twist can be clockwise ( right yarn over left ) or counterclockwise ( left yarn over right ); these are denoted as right-and left-plaited stitches, respectively.

During these “ bush meetings ,” worshipers were free to engage in African religious rituals such as spiritual possession, speaking in tongues and shuffling in counterclockwise ring shouts to communal shouts and chants.

The most notable of these is a curving chain of craters that begin with Rutherfurd in the south, then arc across the floor in a counterclockwise direction forming a sequence of ever diminishing diameters.

The The numbering continues clockwise from position one until the β-carbon of β-lactam is reached, at which point numbering continues counterclockwise around the lactam ring to number the remaining to carbons.

In other words, s is measured counterclockwise around the circle from 3 o ' clock.

To rotate a figure counterclockwise around the origin by some angle is equivalent to replacing every point with coordinates ( x, y ) by the point with coordinates ( x < nowiki >'</ nowiki >, y < nowiki >'</ nowiki >), where

Given an equilateral triangle, the counterclockwise rotation by 120 ° around the center of the triangle " acts " on the set of vertices of the triangle by mapping every vertex to another one.

If a sample of cobalt-60 atoms is magnetized so that they spin counterclockwise around some axis, the beta radiation resulting from their nuclear decay will be preferentially directed opposite that axis.

The path of integration γ is counterclockwise around a closed,

( Torsion is clockwise or counterclockwise rotation around the line of sight when the eye is at its central primary position ; defined this way, Listing's law says that when the head is motionless, torsion is kept at zero.

Continuous deep palpation starting from the left iliac fossa upwards ( counterclockwise along the colon ) may cause pain in the right iliac fossa, by pushing bowel contents towards the ileocaecal valve and thus increasing pressure around the appendix.

In mathematics, the winding number of a closed curve in the plane around a given point is an integer representing the total number of times that curve travels counterclockwise around the point.

An object traveling along the red curve makes two counterclockwise turns around the person at the origin.

Then the winding number of the curve is equal to the total number of counterclockwise turns that the object makes around the origin.

Thus northern circumpolar stars move counterclockwise around the North Star.

At the North Pole, north, east and west are not applicable, the motion is simply left-right, or looking vertically upward, counterclockwise around the zenith.

At the equator the two celestial poles are at the horizon and motion is counterclockwise ( i. e. to the left ) around the North Star and clockwise ( i. e. to the right ) around the southern celestial pole.

For any integer n, using a standard residue calculation we can write an integral representation for the Kronecker delta as the integral below, where the contour of the integral goes counterclockwise around zero.

Farther up the coast the dances tended to become danced with couples moving counterclockwise around the periphery of the room ( perhaps influenced by the introduction of the waltz ) and devoting most of the dance to the clockwise couple turn where the couples face each other and make a full rotation with each measure ( e. g., the village of Bingsjö in Dalarna and villages in the provinces of Hälsingland and Medelpad ).

An anticyclone ( that is, opposite to a cyclone ) is a weather phenomenon defined by the United States ' National Weather Service's glossary as " large-scale circulation of winds around a central region of high atmospheric pressure, clockwise in the Northern Hemisphere, counterclockwise in the Southern Hemisphere ".

Although the left pedal turns clockwise on its bearing relative to the crank ( and so would seem to tighten a right-hand thread ), the force from the rider's foot presses the spindle against the crank thread at a point which rolls around clockwise with respect to the crank, thus slowly pulling the outside of the pedal spindle anticlockwise ( counterclockwise ) because of friction and thus would loosen a right-hand thread.
