Acommon visual behavior is the âhead jerk.â This motion is generally observedwhen an individual otter approaches a raft of sea otters. The approaching otternoses and sniffs the other otters while jerking its head from side to side.
Axis tilt is the vertical angle at which the ball rotates. Axis tilt is what is commonly known as spin. Axis tilt is determined by the position of the thumb during the release. If the hand turns too early, the thumb exits on top of the ball. Bowlers with a high degree of axis tilt will be able to see the top of their hand during the release and follow through.
Then, the weight of the vehicle acts against this lift, and attempts to return the spindle to the straight-ahead position when the steering wheel is released. Figure 18 Steering axis inclination, in combination with caster, is responsible for the directional stability and self-centering of the steering.ositive caster means that the top of the upper ball joint (or strut) is tilted toward the rear of the vehicle, and negative caster means that it is tilted toward the front. A vehicle with a slightly positive caster setting will have its lower ball joint pivot slightly ahead of the tire's center.
