I understand that water going down the drain in the northern
hemisphere swirls down the drain clockwise. In the southern
hemisphere it swirls counter clockwise. My question is two
part;
What direction does it swirl in exactly on the
equator or at the point of equalibrium?
Does water swirl in limited gravity situations
such as a space station? How would its direction
be affected by its place in orbit?
Thank you.
