Does the water in a toilet is flushed spin one way in the northern hemisphere and spin the opposite direction in the southern hemisphere?
No, the water in a toilet does not spin one way in the northern hemisphere and spin the opposite direction in the southern hemisphere. The spin of the water in a toilet is determined by the shape of the toilet bowl and the flush system, not by the direction of the Earth's rotation. In a toilet, the water is flushed by a flushing mechanism. This flushing mechanism is usually activated by pushing a lever or pushing a button, and it causes water to be released from the tank into the bowl. The shape of the toilet bowl, as well as the type of flushing mechanism, determines how the water will move once it enters the bowl. When the toilet is flushed, the water quickly fills the bowl and then begins to swirl around. The force of the swirling water will cause it to push against the sides of the bowl and create a whirlpool effect. As the water circles around the bowl, the shape of the bowl determines the direction in which the water will spin. The water will usually spin in a clockwise direction in the northern hemisphere and in a counterclockwise direction in the southern hemisphere. The spin of the water in a toilet is determined by the shape of the toilet bowl and the type of flushing mechanism, not by the direction of the Earth's rotation. The shape of the bowl and the type of flush system will determine the direction in which the water will spin, regardless of which hemisphere the toilet is located in.

Why water solar panels are lifted towards north?
Water solar panels are heated by the sun. To gain the maximum effect and efficiency the panel must be oriented toward the incident sunshine. In the southern hemisphere this is in a northerly direction; in the northern hemisphere this is in a southerly direction.
