The Coriolis force is an inertial force that acts on objects that are in motion relative to a rotation reference frame. This causes moving objects to the right ( with respect to the direction of travel ) in the Northern hemisphere and to the left in the Southern hemisphere. The horizontal deflection is zero at the equator. It also causes the surface ocean currents in the Northern hemisphere to deflect to the right and the currents in the Southern hemisphere to deflect to the left.
Answer: the Coriolis force.

2. How much force, in g cm / s2 , is exerted by a golf ball described in problem 1 striking a tree while accelerating at 20 cm /
Lana71 [14]

Answer:

F = 1000 g cm/s²

Explanation:

Let the weight of 1 ball is 50 gram

Acceleration, a = 20 cm/s²

We need to find the force exerted by a golf ball. We know that,

F = ma

So,

F = 50 g × 20 cm/s²

F = 1000 g cm/s²

So, the required force is 1000 g cm/s².
