Assuming (probably incorrectly) that you are talking about car engines:
It probably depends on the engine, and I question why you would ever want to rotate an engine in the opposite direction from how it is designed to run. But if I wanted to move an engine in the wrong direction, I would put a socket wrench on the front of the crankshaft, generally in the middle of the engine's lower pulley. I would first disconnect the negative battery cable, as you never want to risk the engine starting to fire and move on its own when you are working on it.
These generic hints would work on most traditional front engine rear wheel drive american car engines of the 50's thru 70's and beyond. (also on some Volvos, Suzuki Samurais, MBZ, and BMWs I have worked on.)

Contrast the scr and the triac?
Essentially an Scr is a solid state switch that will only allow current to flow in one direction. A triac is essentially two scr's in Anti- parallel that allows current to pass in both directions.

Do cyclones go in reverse?
Cyclones only turn in one direction, and do not change mid-cyclone. In the southern hemisphere, cyclones rotate in a clockwise direction. In the northern hemisphere, cyclones (known as hurricanes or typhoons, depending on their location) rotate in an anti-clockwise direction.
Why do fans rotate in anticlockwise direction?
Anti clockwise is used in the winter to bring heat down to the room. during the summer you would use the clockwise motion
Which way does Jupiter rotate?
anti-clockwise
Why table fans rotate clockwise while ceiling fan rotate in anti clock wise?
Because in table fan rotor of motor moves with their blade and stator of motor fixed . But in celling fan same opposite rotor fixed then automatically have to move stator of motor . So as the reason both work as opposite direction.....
Describe the movement of air around cyclones and anticyclones in the northern and southern hemispheres?
The winds of a cyclone in the southern hemisphere moves in a clockwise direction, while the winds of a hurricane or typhoon, often called anti-cyclone, in the northern hemisphere, rotate in an anti-clockwise direction.
