Answer:

If the air pressure were higher over the ocean than over the adjacent land, the wind will move from land to water.

Explanation:

Coriolis Effect is an effect whereby a mass moving in a rotating system experiences a force that acts perpendicular to the axis of rotation and to the direction of motion. On the earth, the Coriolis effect deflects objects in motion to the right in the northern hemisphere and the Coriolis effect deflects objects in motion to the left in the southern hemisphere.

If the air pressure were higher over the ocean than over the adjacent land, the wind will move from land to water.

Geothermal- Geothermal energy is a kind of energy that human gets from the heat of the earth. This is a kind of renewable energy because the earth produces a large amount of heat.

The high temperature of the interior makes the rocks melt and the molten rock comes into the crust of the earth in the form of lava.
