Abstract

On the basis of the condition of the flow potentiality of the hydrodynamic stream flowing around a stationary rotating ball, a detailed analytical derivation of the formula for the Magnus force describing the nondissipative lateral impact from the direction of the progressively moving viscous flow is given for the first time.
