How does the coriolis effect influence precipitation around the world ?

Advanced Placement (AP)

statuscvo [17]3 years ago

The Coriolis effect causes global wind currents to blow in a diagonal direction due to the rotation of the Earth.<span> If the Earth didn't rotate, wind currents would blow straight north and south from the poles to the equator due to the pressure differences between the two regions.


</span><span>This is the Coriolis Effect: the Earth's rotation causes anything on the Earth that isn't perfectly on the equator to spin, and the effect gets strong enough as you get closer to the poles. Now, you don't feel this spinning, because you're too small: even with your arms outstretched and standing on the pole, you still only make one complete circle every twenty-four hours, a speed that is not measurable to all but the most precise equipment. However, a weather system a thousand miles across, will find that the actual speed and direction of the air movement (i.e. wind) at one side of it will be quite different from the air movement at the other side. Because the wind carrying the air and the weather is spinning, the weather systems themselves will begin to spin, and because the Coriolis Effect spins in the opposite direction in one hemisphere versus the other, the direction of the spin will be opposite in the two hemispheres: storms swirl counterclockwise north of the equator, and clockwise south of the equator.</span><span>

Which of the following practices are likely to be part of a sustainable society?
Tems11 [23]
I and III only. I assume this is APES. Recycling old products reduces the usage of materials by using old ones and planting a new tree to replace every tree cut down would allow the world to continue economic developments while not exhausting forestry. II is wrong because if every adult had 3 children then a family would have 6 children and more children = more resources

Do you believe that cutting or reducing the amount of pe in schools in favor of core academic subjects is a good idea? why or wh
finlep [7]
This questions seems to be a question where you are required to mention more than one point. The question has two options of course, I'll tell you my personal answer to the question in broken up points.

I disagree with this statement because I believe that Physical Education (PE) is a very important subject for each individual.
It has been proven that any sort of physical education improves the activity of your brain, if an individual's level of brain activity is higher, it means he learns more from other education and performs better on his tests. 
Physical Education is also a practical lesson that relieves stress off students from all the other core subjects that do not that involve as much practical activity.
Physical Education makes you healthier, the healthier you are the better your life style and (technically) life time will be.
Physical Education is also now proven to wake up students, this means students are less lazy and goes back to one of my previous points mentioning a students activity and performance in a lesson or a test.

I hope this helped, any other questions let me know. :3

Given the equation 5+x-14=x-7: Part A. Solve the equation 5+x-14=x-7. In your final answer, be sure to state the solution and in
docker41 [41]
Part 1/

5 + x - 14 = x - 7
We’ll cancel (X) from both sides;
5 - 14 = -7
-9 = -7
Since, -9 = -7 is False, there is no solution.

———

Part2/

If we use x = -2, 0, 3

1) Case of X = -2

5 + (-2) - 14 = (-2) - 7
5 - 2 - 14 = -2 - 7
3 - 14 = -9
-11 = -9 .... False / No Solution



2) Case of X = 0

5 + (0) - 14 = (0) - 7
5 - 14 = -7
-9 = -7 ... False / No Solution



3) Case of X = 3
5 + (3) - 14 = (3) - 7
8 - 14 = -4
-6 = -4 ... False / No Solution
