Immigrants nowadays are more widespread, but when America was experiencing major waves of immigration in the 19th century, immigrants did tend to settle on the coast. Immigrants came on ships back then, and the two major facilities for accepting these ships and processing the immigrants were in New York City and San Fransisco. Both of these cities are on the coast. We have to remember that immigration was much more difficult back then, with many people having to flee their countries without any of their possessions. This means that they had to restart their lives when they arrived in America. They clearly didn't have enough money to travel very far from where they arrived in America, so they tended to have to stay in either San Fransisco or New York. Immigrants built families and communities there, leaving these coastal states with rich diversity and history.

Places on or near the Equator receive about 12 hours of daylight in June. Approximately how many hours of daylight do those same
Natasha2012 [34]

Answer:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

Explanation:

B) 12 hours of daylight.

In near the equator we experience 12 hours of daylight as the equator is situated exactly the halfway in between the two poles. The North pole experiences  long daylight in the months, when the North Pole is tilted towards the Sun and shorter daylight when the pole tilted away from the Sun. The reverse is true for the Southern Poles. But this wouldn't have any effects in daylight on the equator.

The apparent deflection of air masses to the right or left (depending on latitude) as they move from one latitude to another is
ehidna [41]

Answer:

Coriolis effect

Explanation:

The Coriolis effect is an apparent force, corresponding to the earth's surface, which makes deflection of any moving object (air masses) to the right in Northern Hemisphere and to the left in Southern Hemisphere because of the earth's rotation. The Coriolis effect is a primary cause of various large scale weather patterns e.g. Coriolis effect is responsible for cyclones and trade winds.

The weather effecting fast moving objects e.g planes, missiles,rockets is affected by the Coriolis effect. Coriolis effect determines the direction of winds.  A plane that flies along a path (north-south) should not fly directly towards the target location but it should fly either a little right or left of it to get to the target location.

The Coriolis effect also have an impact on ocean patterns. The winds power the seas. There are very similar patterns of ocean and atmospheric circulation. The effect is that ocean flows in their basins in the Northern Hemisphere and counter clockwise in the Southern Hemisphere.
