Clockwise
Circular motion can occur in two possible directions. A
clockwise (typically abbreviated as
CW) motion is one that proceeds in the same direction as a
clock's hands: from the top to the right, then down and then to the left, and back up to the top. The opposite sense of
rotation or
revolution is (in
Commonwealth English)
anticlockwise (
ACW), or (in
North American English)
counterclockwise (
CCW). In a mathematical sense, a circle defined parametrically in a positive Cartesian plane by the equations and is traced counterclockwise as
t increases in value.
