Earth Dynamics: Vertical and Horizontal Movements

Description

This lecture covers Earth dynamics, including the Foucault pendulum and material point systems. Topics include the Earth's gravitational field, vertical and horizontal relative movements, and the Coriolis force effect. The instructor explains the equilibrium of a pendulum on Earth, the impact of Earth's rotation on the gravitational field, and the relative motion of air masses due to Earth's rotation.
