Geostrophic winds blows parallel to the isobars. That is because the Coriolis force and pressure gradient force ( PGF ) are in balance. But near the surface the friction can act to change the direction of the wind and to slow it down. Coriolis force decreases at the surface and PGF stays the same. The difference in terrain conditions affects how much friction is exerted. Hills and forests force the wind to change direction more than flat areas. Answer: Friction reduces the speed so Coriolis is weakened.
The change in potential energy of an object is given by

where
m is the mass of the object
g is the gravitational acceleration

is the increase in altitude of the object
In our problem,

is the mass of the book,

and

is the increase in altitude of the book, so its variation of potential energy is
Answer:
Total distance, 
Explanation:
It is given that,
Speed of Aaron from home is y mph and walk back at x mph. Let t is the total time he spend in walking and jogging. Let d is the distance covered.
We he moves from home to destination, time is equal to, 
Similarly, when he move back to home, time taken is equal to 
Total time taken is equal to :




So, the distance he speed in walking and jogging is
. Hence, this is the required solution.
