The vast majority of Southern Hemisphere tornadoes rotate clockwise. A small percentage rotate counterclockwise.
A tornado is a violently spinning vortex of wind. In other words, tornadoes twist.
In China, tornadoes are commonly referred to as "龙卷风" (lóng juǎn fēng), which translates to "dragon卷风" or "whirlwind." This term reflects the visual appearance of tornadoes as they twist and spiral through the air. Tornadoes are relatively rare in China compared to countries like the United States, but they can occur, particularly in regions such as the northeastern part of the country.
There is no such thing as a standard sundial. For every different latitude (degrees north or south) the gnomon (the triangular shadow making bit) has to be cut differently. If you live 30 degrees south, cut the gnomon to a 30 degree angle. Set up the sundial so the sharp end of the gnomon is pointing exactly North. The easiest way is to just twist the assembled sundial until it shows the right time. If you want to be as accurate as possible you need to take longitude and time of year into consideration as well, but as most sundials are simply ornaments, that detail is not given.
Uranus rotates on its axis counterclockwise when viewed from above its north pole, making it one of the few planets to rotate in a retrograde direction. Its moons and rings also orbit around the planet counterclockwise, as viewed from above the north pole.
The gun will fire- gunpowder does not need external oxygen to burn. Assuming that you are in weightless conditions, when you fire the gun, you would be pushed in the opposite direction- action and reacting. If it is a rifled firearm, you would also twist in a direction opposite the spiral of the rifling. The bullet will go a very long way until it hits something, or encounters the gravity well of a plants, moon, or star.
Yes.

There are two different types of yarn twists. It depends on the direction of the twist--clockwise, or counterclockwise. The twists are named after the letter of the alphabet that the twist looks like. Therefore, you have an "S-twist" and a "Z-twist." The twist in the yarn looking like the letter "s" or the letter "z."
