8 0

Answer:

As wind or an ocean current moves, the Earth spins underneath it. ... The Coriolis effect bends the direction of surface currents to the right in the Northern Hemisphere and left in the Southern Hemisphere.

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect causes winds and currents to form circular patterns.

Consider a field of insects, all of which have essentially the same mass.
Over [174]

If the total momentum of the insects is zero, this means all of the insects are at rest or are moving in opposite of each other. Same if the total kinetic energy is zero.

<h3>What is momentum? </h3>

Momentum is the quantity of motion which is multiplied by the amount of matter moved i.e., mass and the velocity at which it moves. Because, the object is in motion, it is a vector quantity, it has both direction and magnitude. It is determined by the product of the object's mass and the velocity of object.

If the total momentum of the insects is zero, this could mean anything of the two things. Either, all of the insects are at rest or an equal amount of insects are moving in opposite direction of each other which cancels out the total momentum of the insects.

If the total kinetic energy of the insects is zero, this means either all of the insects are at rest or an equal amount of insects are moving in opposite direction of one another which results into canceling out the energy.

Whats the formula of mass? example Density= mass/volume
DochEvi [55]
The formula for mass you can find from the density equation. Multiply the volume by both sides of the equation.

density = mass/volume

volume*density = mass 

And there you are :)
