As they approach North America, hurricanes commonly move north on clockwise-curving paths due to the:- <u>Coriolis effect</u>
<u>Coriolis effect</u>
- An effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force (the Coriolis force ) acting perpendicular to the direction of motion and to the axis of rotation. On the earth, the effect tends to deflect moving objects to the right in the northern hemisphere and to the left in the southern and is important in the formation of cyclonic weather systems.
The key to the Coriolis effect lies in Earth’s rotation. Specifically, Earth rotates faster at the Equator than it does at the poles. Earth is wider at the Equator, so to make a rotation in one 24-hour period, equatorial regions race nearly 1,600 kilometers (1,000 miles) per hour. Near the poles, Earth rotates at a sluggish 0.00008 kilometers (0.00005 miles) per hour.

Answer:
a) horizontally
Explanation:
If the sewage sludge is disposed of into the deep water , then the density gradient separates the surface water from the deep water,
the internal waves transport wastes horizontally .
<u>When the transport of the particles is dominated by the tides ,wind and the density gradients, the movement is essentially in horizontal direction whereas the vertical transport of the particles is mainly driven by gravity and also by some other processes that occur at the sediment-water interface.</u>
The correct answer is - False.
The Boreal forest is part of the Taiga biome, not of the Alpine one. It is located on the northern hemisphere, form Norway to the Pacific coast of Russia, and from the pacific to the Atlantic coast of the northern half of North America and it occupies the biggest space compared to any other biome in the world. It is a place where there's short humid summers, and very long, extremely cold, snowy winters. It is a biome where the coniferous forest dominates, and some of the animals that live here are the lynx, bears, wolfs, elk, deer, moos...
A cold front<span> is the transition zone where a </span>cold<span> air mass is replacing a warmer one
</span>T<span>hey move more slowly than warm fronts.</span>
Because other three are characteristics of the cold front and they move faster than warm
so option D is correct
hope it helps
He made. a lot of money add that up from when de Guzman paid
