[edit] Summary

Description:
The animation shows a rotating parabolic dish. The dish is solid and it has exactly the same shape as a fluid rotating at that angular velocity would have. The dark dot is a puck that can slide over the surface with very little friction. When the puck is co-rotating with the dish, then it will neither climb up the slope nor slump down.
