The snub cube can be generated by taking the six faces of the cube, pulling them outward so they no longer touch. Then give them all a small rotation on their centers (all clockwise or all counter-clockwise) until the space between can be filled by triangles. The snub cube should not be confused with the truncated cube. ...

Many bacteria, such as E. coli, have several flagella (4-10 typically). These can rotate in two ways : Counter-clockwise rotation aligns the flagella into a single rotating bundle, causing the bacterium to swim in a straight line. Clockwise rotation breaks the flagella bundle apart such that each flagellum points in a different direction, causing the bacterium to tumble in place. The directions of rotation are given for an observer outside the cell looking down the flagellum toward the cell.See also:

A convention universally adopted in mathematical writing is that angles given a sign are positive angles if measured counterclockwise, and negative angles if measured clockwise, from a given line. If no line is specified, it can be assumed to be the x-axis in the Cartesian plane. In navigation, bearings are measured from north, increasing clockwise, so a bearing of 45 is north-east. Negative bearin ...
