Answer:
Part A
Coriolis effect is used to describe how objects which are not fixed to the ground are deflected as they travel over long distances due to the rotation of the Earth relative to the 'linear' motion of the objects
Due to the Coriolis effect the wind flowing towards the Equator from high pressure belts in the subtropical regions in both the Northern and Southern Hemispheres are deflected towards the western direction because the Earth rotates on its axis towards the east
Part B
In the Northern Hemispheres, the winds are known as northeasterly trade winds and in the Southern Hemisphere, they are known as the southeasterly trade wind. Therefore, Coriolis effect has the same effect on the direction of the Trade Winds in the Southern Hemisphere as it does in the Northern Hemisphere
Explanation:
Inertia- a tendency to do nothing or to remain unchanged
1. friction between water molecules
2. the wave spreads out onto a larger and larger area, so per unit area, the energy of the wave goes down
Well, 0.1 is actually less than 0.7, but I understand what you're asking.
The coefficient of friction describes the relationship between two surfaces
that are sliding by each other. The higher the coefficient of friction is, the
'rougher' the meeting is, and the harder it is for one to slide over the other.
A skate blade against ice has a very low coefficient of friction. Sandpaper
against blue jeans has a high coefficient of friction.
A higher coefficient of friction means that when one thing is sliding over
the other one, friction robs more energy from the motion. It's harder to
push one thing over the other one, and when you let go, the moving one
slows down and stops sooner.
Air resistance is actually an example of friction. It prevents falling things
from falling as fast as they would if there were no air. The coefficient of
friction when something moves through air is pretty low. If the same
object were trying to move through molasses or honey, the coefficient
of friction would be greater.
Friction robs energy, and turns it into heat. So, especially in machinery with
moving parts, we want to make the coefficient of friction between the moving parts
as small as possible. That's what the OIL in a car's engine is for.
