Abstract
It is shown that investigating Coriolis effects in the fixed frame leads to a clearer understanding of their physical nature: the body carries along its initial velocity, larger or smaller than the velocity of its corresponding point during the motion. A simple but thorough calculation of some effects (the Foucault pendulum and the eastward drift of a falling body) is given.
