What is the Coriolis Force?

Physics
1 answer:
lys-0071 [83]3 years ago
7 0

It's a virtual force ... one that seems to be there but isn't really there.

When something tries to fly or flow straight, through a rotating neighborhood, it ends up flying or flowing in a curved path, AS IF there were a force acting on it to make it curve. THAT apparent force is the Coriolis force.

It's what makes air, flowing away from high pressure or into low pressure, form the big rotating pressure systems on the rotating Earth.

lapo4ka [179]

Your question asks what a scientific law is.

Your answer would be B). What scientists expect will always happen under particular circumstances

A scientific law is something that will always happen, it is mostly like a repeat when doing a experiment with certain factors in place. This is also known as a "natural law" because something will naturally happen when it is enacted with the same factors for multiple "trials". This "scientific law" will allow scientist to predict what would happen during other multiple trials that are conducted. Concise data would be received from these trials.

An example of a scientific law is Newton's law of gravitation.

Therefore, your answer would be B.
