This lecture delves into the Foucault pendulum, exploring its motion at the Earth's surface and the Coriolis acceleration effect. The instructor explains the pendulum's behavior, its contribution to the tension of the thread, and its oscillation plane. The laws of Newton are also discussed in relation to the pendulum's movement.
