What impact does the coriolis effect have on the direction the air travels?

Fed [463]3 years ago

Answer:

The effect of coriolis causes winds to blow diagonally from west to east in the northern and southern hemispheres, above and below the subtropical elevations, respectively. It also causes the northern hemisphere winds to curl to the right while in the southern hemisphere, the deflection is to the left. Both effects result in the movement of the west winds to the poles.

Explanation:

The Coriolis Effect or Coriolis Force is a system of reference in uniform rotation, in which the bodies in movement, when seen by an observer in the same referential, appear subject to a force perpendicular to the direction of its movement.

The Coriolis Force is exemplified and serves as the basis for various effects taking place on Earth. This force influences the movement of air masses, deviates the trajectory of long range projectiles, and causes changes in the plane of motion of a pendulum.

The Coriolis Effect can be seen in action in the general circulation of the atmosphere. The winds at all latitudes to the north of 0° deflect to the right of their intended path in the Northern Hemisphere. The Coriolis Effect does not impact the wind speed, only the wind direction.

Where is the flow of energy from the earth interior observable and measurable without sensitive scientific equipment
Citrus2011 [14]

The flow of energy from the Earth's interior originates from two main sources: the radiogenic and primordial heat respectively. Radiogenic heat is produced by the radioactive decay of isotopes in the mantle, whereas primordial heat is the energy left over since the Earth's formation.

Without using any sensitive scientific equipment, this flow of energy is observable at stress points between the tectonic plates, such as volcanoes. These are ruptures in the crust of the planet through which materials from the interior of the planet are expelled.

Explain what happens to heat during the Greenhouse effect. Why does this happen?
Flura [38]

Answer:

The greenhouse effect is a natural phenomenon that causes the surface of the Earth to steam. When sunlight strikes the Earth's atmosphere, part of it is reflected back to space, while the remainder is absorbed and re-radiated by greenhouse gases.

Cathy hypothesized that corn would not grow in mud. To test this hypothesis, she took corn kernels and placed 5 in mud, 3 in soi
Softa [21]
The seeds she planted in the mud grew quicker because the mud is holding nutrition for the corn. The soil is a good guess to make, but the mud is more dense and moist. The water wouldn't have had more nutrients than the mud, just because the mud holds breakdown matter and other things from other plants.
