Draw a circle: place your pen at what will become the top of the circle, and move it first to the right and all the way around. This is CLOCKWISE- the way a clock's hands move. The opposite direction (if you have moved your hand left first) is thus called COUNTERCLOCKWISE.

Clockwise is to the right... Counterclockwise is to the left.

Clockwise on a clock advances the time shown ... Counterclockwise reverses the time shown on a clock.

Clockwise is similar to "righty-tighty", which means "turn to the right".

Some things that you can turn clockwise or counterclockwise include:

  • a clock's hands
  • a doorknob
  • a screw, which you screw in or out
  • a light bulb

Do objects float easier in dense fluids?

No, objects do not float easier in dense fluids. Objects float based on the density difference between the object and the fluid it is placed in. If the object is less dense than the fluid, it will float; if it is more dense, it will sink. The density of the fluid itself does not affect the floating behavior of the object.

Is it easier to escape a car fully submerged underwater or half submerged?

It is generally easier to escape a car that is fully submerged underwater because there is equal pressure inside and outside the vehicle, making it easier to open the doors or break a window to escape. In a half-submerged car, the pressure difference between the inside and outside makes it more difficult to open the doors or windows.

Does a merry-go-round turn clockwise or counter-clockwise?

According to Wikipedia: In the United States, a carousel goes counter-clockwise. In many EU-states (the UK, the Netherlands, etc.), the carousel goes the other way around; clockwise. The reason for this is subject of much speculation.People who are right handed find it easier, in general, to push the merry-go-round in a counterclockwise direction. Most merry-go-rounds are capable of spinning either way.Carousels typically rotate counterclockwise.Merry-go-rounds turn anti- or counter-clockwise.I think its b/c the other way makes ppl more dizzy..counter clockwise
