So these are water streams going from the outer ring inwards, if that's not clear Somehow you'd intuitively expect them to bend in the other direction, I think. Right? Apparently this has to do with "coriolis force" (?)pic.twitter.com/AlVxsEhFn8
Replying to @mechanicalmonk1
The water jets have sideways momentum. We expect things to curve towards stillness because of air resistance, but in this case the round reference frame causes some general weirdness. The point our eyes intuitively treat as still wrt the water is actually accelerating inwards
