A completely random thought: is there a name for the motion of a carousel horse? One of those would be informative and impish:
[For you overly serious types
- Yes, I know that both of those
answers are incorrect because 'donut' and 'torus' refer
to 3-dimensional surfaces. My question and answers are not meant
to be geometrically correct. However, if there really is a term describing
the combination of sinusoidal and
circular motions of a carousel horse, I would like to know what it is.]
