What You Need To Know About The UGANDA’S EQUATOR LINE by edwapkalmeed(m): 6:50am On Dec 13, 2015 |
“Did you know that if you poured water in a
funnel on the northern hemisphere it runs
clockwise and in the southern hemisphere it
runs counter-clockwise and right on the line the
water goes straight?”
Being able to stand on the equator is a privilege
only a few have the opportunity to experience,
as the imaginary line passes through a only few
countries in Africa, South America, several
islands; and oceans. The demonstration that
you are about to see is one of a kind– and i bet
— it will blow your mind– and perhaps you will
learn a few things about the forces of nature.
“If you pour water when you are northern side of
the equator on top of this funnel it drains in the
clockwise direction and on the southern side it
will change and drain anti-clockwise. And right
here on the straight-line there won’t is any
movement. And this is caused by the cirrhosis’
effect of the magnetic field.
After pouring the reason why i put this metal is
just to make the water calm down so that i
does not pour. After making it still, i drop this
flower on top to show its direction: it runs
clockwise. This means that those who are living
in the northern hemisphere: when you flush your
toilet or open the sink plug the water will run
clockwise.
Southern hemisphere: the flower changes
direction and runs anti-clockwise. Some
countries in the southern hemisphere for
example New Zealand and Argentina all there
toilets flush this direction.
Did you know that the equator traverses the
land and territorial waters of 14 countries and
seven of them are in Africa? Uganda is one of
the few countries in the world that the equator
intersects. The equator crosses through
Uganda approximately 72 kilometers south of
Kampala, along the famous Kampala – Masaka
road. http://paulndiho.com/2014/02/04/ugandas-equator-line-boosts-tourism/ |

The most depressing thing in the world, i think, is the inability of the human mind to correlate all its contents. There is so much to learn and discover on this earth that it is forgiven if we live as a placid island of ignorance in the midst of black seas of infinity of knowledge. Advances in science & engineering look like a drop in the ocean but it is my firm belief that someday, the piecing together of dissociated knowledge will open up such terrifying vistas of reality and the frightful position man will find himself at the possession of such astounding power. |
