The coriolis effect does this. This is a inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotating reference frame. This means that when the earth rotates, objects in the north hemisphere is deflected to the right, while objects in the southern hemisphere are deflected to the left. This makes the winds shift left or right.

Corioliseffect causes ocean surface currents to be deflected from overall wind currents.

Further Explanation:

Coriolis Effect is the deflection of any matter because of Coriolis's force which is a psychophysical perception. The Coriolis Effect plays an important role in the driving of wide-ranging wind currents on the Oceans' surface.

Oceans currents are the continuous directed motion of seawater that is generated by numerous forces acting on the water. The effect influences the direction and intensity of the current. The oceanic currents are primarily horizontal movement of water.

Coriolis Effect drives the oceanic current to a great distance that plays an important role in determining the climatic condition of many regions of the Earth as it influences the humidity of the regions from where it passes.Warm current increases the warmth of the region and cold current decreases the humidity of the region. This phenomenon can be marked in the regions of Gulf Stream.

250 word narrative about your personal American cultural experience

8_murik_8 [283]

Hey there! Hello!

So, I don't want to write this for you (in fact, I'm pretty sure I'm not allowed to) since I can't exactly identify your personal experiences with American culture. But, I can give you some pointers for this narrative to base you writing on.

It helps to know exactly what the staples of American culture are. Basically, think of all of the things that makes America, America. What does the American experience mean to you? Is it the freedom to practice your religion, or have the ability to express yourself in the (legal) ways you choose? Is it the ability to enter and end relationships and marry whoever you want in the eyes of the law? Is it our diverse and multilingual nature? Is it the food that people first think of when they hear "Do you want American food for dinner?" Is it the artistic aspect of living here, where art museums, ability to major in art and writing, and general exposure to art and writing is common? Is it the prominence of music in our modern society? Is it the sports that bind the people of the nation together? Is it the (only sort-of limited) ability for LGBT people to live fearlessly in the eyes of the law and nation as a whole, with communities and help they can look to in their times of need?

What defines the experience for you? What's important to you as an American? That's what they're trying to get at with this assignment. Feel free to explore topics of American culture that go beyond the ones I have listed here, since there must be many more.

Hope this helped you out! Feel free to ask me any additional questions if you have any. :-)

Que tuvo que ver la doctrina Monroe con la situación política, social y económica que se vive en América Latina.

stich3 [128]

✅La doctrina fue presentada por el presidente Monroe durante su sexto discurso al Congreso sobre el Estado de la Unión. Fue tomado con dudas, al principio, y luego con entusiasmo. Fue un momento decisivo en la política exterior de los Estados Unidos. La doctrina fue concebida por sus autores, en especial John Quincy Adams, como una proclamación de los Estados Unidos de su oposición al colonialismo en respuesta a la amenaza que suponía la restauración monárquica en Europa y la Santa Alianza tras las guerras napoleónicas.✅
