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.

The air movements toward the equator are called trade winds, which are warm, steady breezes that blowalmost continuously. The Coriolis Effect makes the trade winds appear to be curving to the west, whether they are traveling to the equator from the south or north. Answer trade wind

Compare the gravitational force the sun exerts on Earth to the gravitational force Earth exerts on the sun.
podryga [215]

Answer:

as

  • Mass of sun > Mass of earth

Therefore, the sun will exert more gravitational force on earth.

Explanation:

While comparing the gravitational force exerted by two objects, we need to observe which object has a greater mass.

  • The object with the greater mass exerts a more gravitational force on the other object.

We know that mass of the sun is about 1.99 x 10³⁰ kg, and the earth's mass is only 6.0 x 10²⁴.

as

  • Mass of sun > Mass of earth

Therefore, the sun will exert more gravitational force on earth.

Name the two types of vaporization and explain the difference between them. Give one example of each. ​
kolezko [41]
Evaporation and boiling.
Evaporation refers to only the surface level turning it into a gas and the vaporization pressure of the liquid remains low.
When a substance boils it’s pressure is high and the surface evaporated along with the rest of the liquid at an equal rate. A sign of boiling is the presence of bubbles, which occur only in the process of boiling and not in evaporation.
A example of boiling is heating water up to the point until you see steam and bubbles.
A example of evaporation is the melting of an ice cube.
Hope this helps

Compare and contrast inference and critical thinking
fgiga [73]
Critical Thinking means to rush to find a solution for a problem - Inference means to having a conclusion to the situation you were facing. 

What they both have in common is that if you are facing a problem, you have to come up with a good solution so that you would have a conclusion to the problem you had in the first place.
