Vertical axis or vertical plane

[edit]

In geometry, an axis has two, opposite directions. A plane has angles from 0° to 360°—or equivalently, a pair of axes. There is a vertical axis, namely the directions up and down. The saccule senses whether we’re being pulled/pushed up or down. But does it also sense acceleration in another axis? Or does it only sense the vertical axis? If so, please change _vertical plane_ into _vertical axis_. — SvartMan (talk) (talk) 13:47, 20 September 2024 (UTC)[reply]
