How does the coriolis effect determine the general path of air circulation?
The effect of the Coriolis force is an apparent deflection of the path of an object that moves within a rotating coordinate system. The object does not actually deviate from its path, but it appears to do so because of the motion of the coordinate system.
What is the path the Sun appears to take around the Earth called?
The path that the sun appears to take through the stars and other objects in the skyis the "ecliptic". The constellations lined up along that path are the constellations ofthe "Zodiac".There's no particular name for the path that the sun appears to follow around the earth.It does that every day, and the apparent path is slightly different each day.
Does a hurricane move in a narrow path along the ground or over water?
A hurricane moves in a very wide path over water.
What is the part of a planet or comets orbit where it is closet to the sun?
That point is called perihelion and its position can be defined by longitude and latitude in coordinates based on the ecliptic (the Sun's apparent path through the sky). The longitude of perihelion is one of the elements that define the object's orbit.
Why is the sun called the apparent path?
When we view the rising and setting of the sun, we assume the viewpoint of a motionless Earth, but we know that the Earth is actually rotating on its axis, and the sun does not orbit the Earth.
What causes the apparent change in the path of pendulum?
no
What causes the apparent change in the path of the pendulum?
no
The apparent path of the stars over the course of a single night is caused by?
It is caused by the earth's rotation.
What is the suns path among the stars?
an ecliptic
The apparent path of the sun throughout the year?
The Earth's revolution around the Sun results to an apparent path change over the year for the Sun. The Earth faces the Sun at a different angle each day, hence the change in the Sun's path as well.
Why is Aquarius in the zodiac?
Aquarius is one of the constellations the Sun travels through on the ecliptic, the apparent path of the Sun "around" the Earth over a year.
How would the change in the suns path from summer to winter affect the length and position of shadows?
Exactly the same as the change in the sun's position from noon to sunset affects them ... they stay exactly opposite the direction of the sun, but they get longer.
What is the sun's apparent path through the background of stars called?
ecliptic
An image that results from an apparent path of light rays is called?
virtual
Is the apparent annual path of the sun upon the celestial sphere called the eliptic?
Sort of. To be precise, the Ecliptic is the PLANE that goes through this path.
Why does the ecliptic show?
The ecliptic is the apparent path of the sun's movement in space, as viewed from the earth.
What apparent path would stars take if you were to look toward the Eastern horizon?
Up.
